          They can't even if they want to - Michigan is a rear-plate-only state, you can throw anything in the front or nothing at all

                    thanks! I lucked out on the dash...the dashboard it self is painted with Dupli-Color Vinyl/fabric paint(black).
                    but as for the dash pieces:
                    my uncle's neighboor works in a customs shop and he said he'd paint it with some good paint(instead of rattle can) for free!
                    it couldn't have turned out better!

                        Till someone backs up into the bumper... Why do you think mine are hidden in the corners of the brush guard? Since then I've pushed a Vandura van, a Sonoma truck, and a Caprice, no damage whatsoever! But if someone ain't paying attention in the parking lot Colin's pretty fucked, unfortunately.

                          Needs a floor shifter of some kind, for sure!

                          And this needs a good clean-up - I see way too many vacuum lines, at least two vacuum valves that can be thrown out, one soup can that can be replaced, wires that need organizing, and so on :p

                            yea, I'm getting a floor shifter...B&M Quick Silver shifter.
                            those fog lights were only 20 bux...so if someone backs into them, I won't be too angry...they've lasted for over a year now.

                              Sorry, i'm temporarily borrowing this thread to reduce my ignorance a bit. What the **** is that soup can looking thing? I though about ripping it off when I had my car, but I didn't know what it was so I left it alone.
