04 EM2 EX - Grenadine 31 Attachment(s) It's an automatic. So if you're looking for performance and suspension mods get out while you still can! This is more of a 'Sleeper car audio build' than anything. I wish I documented from the day I got it but basically the body was in pretty good shape but the interior was seriously neglected. The amount of human slime was unbearable. Previous owner must have loved coffee and cheetos, because the whole console was encrusted in in a orange/brown goo. Attachment 113783 I wasn't expecting to like this car so much so I didn't take many pictures of it when I first got it. First things I did was smoke the tails and restore the headlights: Attachment 113784 Attachment 113785 Attachment 113786 Attachment 113787 Last aesthetics were new grill and blacked out emblems: Attachment 113788 Attachment 113789 Driver's side door lock actuator pooted rendering keyless entry worthless. Had to get that fixed. Ended up stripping one of the screws in the door jamb. Attachment 113790 Now it was time to get started on the stereo! Attachment 113791 Dash piece: Attachment 113792 Attachment 113793 Attachment 113794 Upgraded to a 34 Optima Redtop as well as did the big 3 and installed 4 gauge ofc for the amp: Attachment 113795 Monoblock & 10" Type R installed: Attachment 113796 Attachment 113797 Attachment 113798 Attachment 113799 Installed Kicker KS 2-way 6x9s in the rear deck and did the gas shocks mod while I was at it. Tensioner bars were in the way: Attachment 113800 Attachment 113801 Did some deadening and installed some cs coaxials in the doors, this would be temporary: Attachment 113802 Time for a real front stage! JL C2-650 Components and more Damplifier Pro: Attachment 113803 Attachment 113804 Attachment 113805 Attachment 113806 Attachment 113807 Attachment 113808 Attachment 113809 LED for lowbeams, tryna free up some amperage for the amp: Attachment 113810 Attachment 113811 Attachment 113812 Attachment 113813 I'll update this more, there's some stuff missing. |

Re: 04 EM2 EX - Grenadine 6 Attachment(s) Got a layer a dynamat on the roof. Attachment 113697 Upgraded my sub amp to a 1200w monoblock, time for a charging system upgrade. Attachment 113698 Installed this 180a Singer Alternator. Attachment 113699 Retired the Type R and bought some JL 10w6v3s decided to build a ported box for them. Attachment 113700 Attachment 113701 Attachment 113702 Still gotta do some round-over sanding and then it'll be ready for carpet. |
Re: 04 EM2 EX - Grenadine 3 Attachment(s) Swapped my kenwood single din for one with bluetooth and 4v preouts. What a difference in sound quality!: Attachment 113692 Deadening trunk (I left the floors for last, that way I could get budget deadener and not worry about it sliding off of anywhere if the adhesive sucks) plus I'm poor.: Attachment 113693 Box carpeted: Attachment 113694 Near future to-dos: -Tint -False floor/ditch the donut With all the added weight, suspension doesn't seem too happy, gotta figure out what to do about that. |
