how much and where did you get the ground wire kit from? It does help out for smoother electricity aound the car, so ive heard of smoother shifting points and starting of the car (no dimming of lights). cant wait to see it done!

I have a Sun Grounding System in my GT, and have felt no power gain. But it does seem to smooth out the shifts a bit.Dude, that pillar project is gonna look sooooo tight. I've always wanted to do something like that. Can't wait to see how it turns out.

Yeah i bought a seperate 3 pod piece and cut out the pods... then marked up my extra pillars and cut holes and fitted the gauges... then fiberglassed like 2 times cuz the first one started peeling.I gotta sand it down some more. then my buddys gonna spray it with bedliner to give it texture and then paint it charcoal like the dash.Will do on the updates... should be done this weekend.

Lemme tell ya they are harder to custom make then you think. fitting and cutting plus fiberglassing and sanding!!! its a one time deal. LOLThis ones a pain in the (removed) cuz its me doing a project, and somethings gotta go wrong or take TONS of time.Hopefully its done this weekend though... gonna finish sanding it down tonight and get the paint tomorrow
