Boilersubie Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 what brand of gauges are you using? Prosport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaGe Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 i know that my DB LC-1 gauge fits differently than my X-line. i think being able to sand them down as you need is really the way to go, because you want the gauges to fit snug. OTM. Sorry I didn't mean to start a war which mainly forum people is all about . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detslider Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 I used an oil galley plug I picked up from IAG. This thread was usefull http://www.legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=24956 A crows foot wrench will make the job MUCH easier. The easiest way to get thru the firewall is to use the gromet pictured below.

Detslider Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 The paint on mine is pretty thin and needs to be touched up. Can you provide the paint code or who your supplier is. ETA: maybe I'll just paint it black. It really stands out right now. http://www.jcarrill.8m.com/Rides/Detailing/2006%20Legacy%20GT/3280.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaGe Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 the paint that i am able to get will run 25 bucks for a half a pint, or 50 for a full pint. OTM. Sorry I didn't mean to start a war which mainly forum people is all about . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montana Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 I have an A pillar for sale listing, I just bumped it. If someone is thinking about doing this, my piece is perfect except for the fabric covering, which you're removing anyway. http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=89625 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpawnGT Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 If we sent you both driver and passenger side A-pillers could you paint them both black...so that at least they would match? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyrm98 Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Yeah I dropped mine and some of the paint came off. Could you give us the code? I am thinking that painting these tan is not the way to go. I currently apply 4 coats of the tan paint to these. I was afraid that if I went any more the paint would be too thick. The paint that I used is called "Pescadero Sand" #15283 by SEM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LGT-NY Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Are you guys still making these? Interested in a tan 2 pod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaGe Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 tan does not look bad if the correct color is used. to me the black would look just as out of place as the pillar pod, unless you take all the interior trim pieces off and have them painted black as well. ie. up to the point to the pillars. OTM. Sorry I didn't mean to start a war which mainly forum people is all about . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
300zx2lgt Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I had Jason make a 1 pod A-pillar and it came out fantastic. I just put my boost gauge in and everything fit perfect. The pillar itself and the hole for the gauge were spot on. Just wanted to leave the great feedback. Good service and I can't say enough about the craftsmanship. I had him leave it black and with the black interior it looks great. I kinda wish all the pillars were black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

300zx2lgt Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Here are a few pics. I now realize that photography is not my strong suit. IMO I think the 1 pod looks really good. 2 or 3 pods would be too much. I wish I had taken a picture of my ghetto setup before I got the pillar In the second picture I tried to show how well the part fit with the headliner.

300zx2lgt Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 In looking at these pictures online the first picture does not do the pillar justice. I think its my camera. BTW the rubber molding on my car has since been cleaned... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
