Son of Mods Shopping List

Boy have I got a shopping list to get to when I get home again Monday...

New sound system (Pioneer AVH-P4100DVD, Polk db675s in the doors)

All new carbon-fibre interior trim from Babybenz...

Carbon-fibre mirror caps/CF door corner caps/custom blacked-out speedo & pod dials from Parts4Smarts...

Black-n-blue headlamps and S-Mann cabrio roof spoiler from SmartMadness...

Vortex generators from CosmoDynamics (an experiment to see if they help keep the cabrio rear window any cleaner in the rain)...

Front bumper from Breathless (the first one was made with the mounts a little off)...

Valentine 1 radar/laser detector and Garmin GPS2610 from another vehicle...

Plus prep the car for the road-trip from Michigan to Dallas to the Florida Gulf Coast and back to Michigan.

Whee, &c.

I would've liked to have told you already, but one of 'em got damaged in transit when I originally bought 'em in February - stupid Brown Truck knocked the dipped-beam projector loose in the bucket of the driver's side lamp assembly... Had to send it back to Boris in April when I got home last time, and I didn't see any sense in installing just the other one, so it's all had to wait another two months.

I did spot a teeeeeeny bit of dust on the black paint inside the housing of the passenger-side one, just so's ya know, but you'd have to look pretty hard to spot it once the unit's installed in the car.

Or so I hope, anyway.

Heh. I've had about six months to shop and *not* drive it, remember.

(fortunately my job pays *really* well...)
