Well alot of you know me as the first guy to change my entire interior to blue. But I've also done alot of other stuff to help out the site and its members. Without people sharing their knowledge, we wouldn't have this awesome place where everyone can learn about cars and modding.
So if you have time, feel free to click on some of the links below. I hope the time I spent writing them will help some of you out on your car modding adventures.

what kind of plastic was that you used for that volt gauge in your air vent? it looks like it matches stock almost perfect.

Thanks guys. I made that old voltmeter mount out of the Blockbuster video movie case. It matches exactly with the grain and all.

Man I love those DIY's and I hope I can try to do some of them someday... When I get the cash.
quick questions: What parts are the parts that I should apply deadening material to really make the interior as quiet as or quieter than my dad's '03? What color is the spray that you used for spraying the auto shifter?

Deadening material helps most on the doors and trunk floor. Do the doors first, and you may want to pick up some bondo rubberized undercoating and spray that under the wheel wells.
I used flat black paint for the shifter. Just sand it with fine grain sandpaper and wipe with alcohol before painting.
Impulse, needles are easy to do. Just make sure your needles are clear from the sides before you start.
