Big ups to Cody ( FOST3RS CHARG3R) on this one happening! Cody hooked me up with his old color matched crosshair since he has the highly covited GRIP now.

Here is the old setup (chrome crosshair):

I love it!!! In person, it makes the honeycomb insert pop!

Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics. I'll get better ones up soon.

Don (Time366), your chrome crosshair will be in the mail Monday!

The color match looks awesome on your car. Mine is black, but that's the Daytona setup & I like that too. The chrome doesn't really impress me that much. Good upgrade for you!!

I thought about getting the black grille for the daytona look but I don't want to be too big of a poser since I rock a V6 with style. :)

Cody you can use simple green, spray it everywhere cover your intake filter if you have a cai then spray it down with the water lightly and start engine and run it while you do. Or you can even just get some spray detailer and clean the engine that way makes a big difference. Check the z forum for some tips cody.

Looking good!! The colormatch is more custom than the black Daytona grill, so you made the right decision, IMO.

Yeah, I went to a car show last weekend and some idiot had one on his red Charger... wait, that was your car! I am of course kidding, your's looks great too (It was probably the Daytona grill that got you 1st place).

Cody, I used the Simple Green/Hose Off method that Ed mentioned. I'm going to post some pics here in a few seconds.

Brent, I honestly couldn't stop laughing when I read your hijack! Well played my friend!

Kalem, where the crap have you been!?

Thanks everyone for the props on going color matched - SPECIAL thanks again to Cody!

I have been busy with a few projects and haven't had time to post much lately. I will be posting pics of some of the completed projects (mostly interior upgrades) soon and hopefully will be wrapping up a few others before Hot Springz. What's been going on up there?

Thanks for the compliment - everything is done in a very subtle manner (Almost stock looking, except much nicer IMO). I'm looking forward to meeting up and checking out all of your mods in person.
