where'd you get the shift knob? I heard concepto went out of business.

I like the dash lights, that's pretty slick. do you have any pictures of the red HVAC dials?? I'm curious how it looks.

The concepto knob I got from ConceptoUSA (http://www.elantraxd.com/forums/member.php?userid=1195) he made a thread here in the marketplace having them up for sale and I happened to see it at the right time, as 5 minutes after I replied the thread got deleted. I don't know why, but I'm loving the thing, he shipped it to me ASAP and I had it by Monday when I had only paid for it on Friday. If you want one I'd suggest PM'img him as his price is reasonable [$49 shipped] and the knob feels amazing.

I'll try to take a picture of the red HVAC but it's about the same as my gauge-cluster. The only thing was that I got too heavy handed with the cotton swab and took off a bit too much of the black on one of the dials but other than that it looks pretty decent I think.

I finally finished making up my new grill, it only took two weekends to finish it. Mostly because I had to spend half of one with the girlfriend and needed some necessary parts to finish it.

Now that it's done I'm definetly glad I did it, though now I know of some ways I could've saved myself some time.

It actually was a pretty cheap mod considering all I needed was the metal-mesh on the back and some black spray paint to make both the mesh black and to cover up all the parts I cut off and sanded on the grille.

Looks good.

Now keep on modding.

You should paint the chrome silver or black.. Unless you like the chrome look.

[scud]

Haha Super I only have a few more things I want to mod before I think I'm "done", we'll see though.

And I actually do prefer the chrome look for the outside edges of the grille, think it fits in with the rest of the front bumper.
