    It mod time!

    Well the FNG is getting to work on my 99. I've set up an appointment at Line-X to get the cladding coated...Also ordered some scissor slide Lambo Doors. Will up date with photos once done.
    Quick Question...Is it better to remove the Cladding? What are the issues I'll have...i.e are there anyparts that I'll need to order before I do..double sticky foam?? Tape...new bolts...?
    Going with a fire copper coatings...nearly matches the red (more like burnt orange) interior.

    there is double sided tape in a few places behind the cladding. I think you need to start fom the front bumper and work your way back, i know i can get the front bumper off in about 5 minutes and remember that the rear bumper was a PITA because 4 of the bolts were hidden behind the quarter panels

    iirc there are also rivets holding the cladding in the rear fender wells, not sure what you do about those

    is that the plant off the ridley park exit on 95? i still get all these towns mixed up.. all i know is that in a 3 mile drive to get on 95 i drive thru at least 8 towns... as far as changing i dunno i heard it used to be nice lol not so much in the 2 years ive been there.. i know in darby they are trying to "revitalize" but so far all the under-construction houses are just giving clean slates for graffiti artists
