new here
Hi all, my name is Dustin, I live in Tennessee... Nashville area. I am new to these forums, but not Monte Carlos. I had a 95 z34 through high school, and now yave a red 99z34. The Monte I have now has a modified stock intake with a 4" hose coming from the side of the box into the fender, behind the headlight. A 2.5" cat to "y" pipe and magnaflow mufflers. And a battery relocation to the trunk.

Alright, I do realize all of the pictures have a differant background, but I'm unable to go take pics at this moment. I will go do a photo op soon so you can see more recent photos, including my interior. Themore recent one of the front end has the black headlights, I just posted the otherone because I like the scenery behind it.
Also, in the engine bay, I made a strut brace by modifying a 92 bonneville brace. I opened up the holes a bit so they'd fit my car and added in a longer bar so it would reach our spaced fender strut towers.

Thank you all for the compliments. About the knight crest, I have always loved the badge. I actually have more recent pics like promised... a small warning, I love to fabricate differant things and am a bit of a photo *****... so without further ado...
As I said, I like to fabricate. I made a door for the cd holder in the console... knight crest again, all leather. Crown royal shift boot. Made by cutting the leather off a grand am shift boot, wrapped the wire frame in a crown royal bag and integrated it into the shift assembly then pushed the shift boot pin through the bag, then tie the bag... if wanted, I can post a how to. Clear *****, and cut out the would trim on the dash and integrated the 78 Monte Carlo badge into the dash.
Also painted the z34 badge red.
