Slowly She is Transformed

Starting Oct. 26th, I am taking a week off of work for a build project. My 2008, Cool GXP is getting the following Engine mods: “a Works Radiator Upgrade, Works GT Front Frame Brace, Turbo Upgraded to a PTE 5457 450HP Turbo, Cat-less Downpipe, Solo Performance Center Duals, New light weight Aluminum IC Piping, Tia BOV and a custom Tune from Wester .” She is also getting a face lift thanks to Norm. Body Mods: “Front Bumper Facia, New Fenders, Exhaust Diffuser Facia, Transformer Ground Effects and a custom hood with Heat Extractors and Ram Air with Box. (not the one on his website)” Currently I am prepping the car, she is already on blocks and the parts have started to arrive. I would post a pick of the Custom hood but I have no idea how to do it in this thread "http://" ?????

She already has:
Dejon Intercooler
B&G Coilovers
Backbone
Probeam
Guagepod w/ Custom Boost and Air/Fuel
GMPP Upgrade
New 19" Rims with PS1 Tires

It is in here somewhere past p2.

Site Help Forum/Site Information - Pontiac Solstice Forum

That was as far as I went then I used the use(r)less search feature

Oh here it IZ
How do you post a picture?

Someone with more pic experience than me will come on with more help.
If they don't, I will go through it step by step and post something really fowl & ugly because the search feature sucks loudly

Then I will get banned for 3 days

Down here,

Use the test forum

Test Forum - Pontiac Solstice Forum

to see if it works.

A word of caution. When you set up the required image hosting service off site, set up a seperate account for each forum so your whole album don't get viewed & hacked.

Go for premium service and get an account that lets you have multiple albums that can only be accessed with your permission.

The new hood design looks very nice, can't wait to see the final pictures. Let us know how much of a difference you feel with the Werks front brace, since you already have the DDM suspension mods.

You should use imageshack to host your pics. Much easier, atleast for me it is.
