Today i has finally taken care of a rust spot that has been bugging me for awhile and it also gave me the chance to paint the lower rockers black and i think it looks so much better. also this was my first time using bondo i know it could have came out better >_< lol

How's the new shift kit feel?

How's the new shift kit feel?

you can definitely feel the difference on that 1-2 shift, feels much better. i think next im gonna do the vett servo.

I was thinking of doing something like that or bedliner for them but i went with the x2 paint from rustoleum as a top coat after the rust converter gonna see how it holds up.

All I have is the vette servo. Definitely a worthwhile upgrade on its own.

i really got to get on that and get it done soon,

on another note i found out why i lost 5th fan speed and i got some painting done while i was at it.





This last bolt to get the black cover off on the passenger side is the biggest pain as there is barley any space to get the socket in but once i get it everything else works out. i only took this off as i was replacing the driver side blend door as well. If your just doing the resistor you don't have to take that bolt out.



Got tired of the faded gray look time for flat black

Did you plastidip ? I have a shift kit in my express work van and it feels amazing ! What a difference. Doing the same to my Tahoe soon. Trans guy said I don't really need the vette servo.

Did you install the shift kit yourself? How bad/hard was it to do ?

I Plastidipped my lower valance piece black too. Looks so much better than that grey.
