BurrNinja F10 Build
Figured I will make one of these from start to finish.
Ideas will go here so I do not make multiple threads. To start off. When I first got my car. Very few mods plasti dipped door trim, front grill. At least till I purchase gloss black grill insert and wrap trim. Plan to purchase new wheels. Photo is a rough idea of how my car will look with the wheels. Also added cold air intake for nice sound. Removed badges Plan to get my valve cover replaced, ofhg, breather hose, ocg. Eventually rms. All Diy best way to save money plus I learn about my car as I go. As I plan to be a technician one day in the process of that. Other then that I usually have to save up for mods currently. Once I get her paid off and things in life straightened out more I will be able to afford to not have to save so little. Any comments and questions I will answer too as soon as I can. Thanks for viewing! This will be a long journey for me in the beginning stages of mods. Last edited by BurrNinja; 04-22-2019 at 01:13 AM.. |

Awesome bro! we need a photo shoot. were like minutes away! your car looks like my twin when I first bought mine. I took my sweet ole time. almost 3 years in the making. take your time and do it right. look for deals in the Marketplace and yes, do a lot of it DIY! BTW, that looks like the Walmart Parking lot on Airport. I've seen your car there a couple of times and didn't know it was yours because those are the wheels I was going to get.

Cool! Let us know how you like it. I bought HF DA Polisher and have been using it for 3 years but I'm ready to toss it since it burns up all the hex logic pads too quickly. Even with upgrading the backing plate to Lake Country

This one is pretty neat rpms can go super slow to fast af so its a learning process for me and finding that sweet spot rpm. Its got a turn nob for adjusting speed. This friday hopefully no rain Ill wash up my car and try it out
Edit : Tested out on part of trunk part of the swirls are out some still there. Other then that looks more and more of a mirror.

Lookin' good! I suggest painting your calipers too! I see it looks like the wheels use to have plastidip? Are you gonna redo them?

I did the valve cover myself with help of my dad we both learned things, its not bad at all, just need good memory on where things go back into place. Next I will be doing ofhg and oil cooler gasket but with an oil change. Found out what ever shop previously did the valve cover did not tighten all the bolts SMH! Id rather save the money and know the job was done right tbh with a little bit of knowledge on the way.

There is much more to valve cover, doing the ofhg will be a breeze. Cant wait to be leak free the smell rolling through my vents is annoying haha.
