I think the moment someone goes beyond maybe floor mats and window tint, family thinks you've gone crazy

This year, I think my wife is ready to buy a straight jacket for me if it means stopping the goofy mods to the Monte, lol....
Actually, I'm very lucky, she is happy I enjoy what I've been doing. But I will say this, she knows I get additional ideas from forums like this and her first question was "OK, who online gave you this idea?"

She must hate me then.

My Mom said I'm too crazy with the car. It was our mutual agreement in 1999 that if I swore to take care of the car there would be no questions in getting it. She said I took that a little too far.

Definitely post some pics!

I just did a little touch up on mine. One thing I learned if I had it to do over, squirt a small glob of this stuff on a piece of card board and use a tooth pick to paint it on (as it's such a tight area).

Yesterday I gently applied it straight from the bottle, as the bottle had a very fine tip. I did have to get a tooth pick to finish it yesterday. Had I started with a tooth pick, the accuracy would be FAR better. But the touch ups I did helped a LOT.

That's how I did mine too lol. It doesn't look too bad.

And Maniac, sometimes the best mods are the ones you can't find in a store or online!

It's the little things that add up and make your car stand out

That looks really good man, I think I might have to do that myself... I've always thought their steering wheels were a tad boring. Could definitely use a little more flare. Thanks for the idea!
