These pictures show some of the stuff I did this weekend to my KOUP. A major thank you goes to OrangeCrush for the help and expertise. Just a few upgrades were done:
> Shark-fin antenna installed
> "K" emblems installed (Rear and Steering wheel)
> De-badged / Re-badged
These recent upgrades go along with the 20% window tint w/ windshield strip
Again, huge shout out to OrangeCrush who helped with all this greatly.
Let me know what y'all think!!

Looks great!! Just about to order my sharkfin. Where is yours from?

 

[rossfrost22]

The regular shark-fin is too small for the koups antenna base, so you'll have to do as I did and get the VG Mark II (the larger one), This is because they haven't made one yet to fit the koup exactly. But let me tell you this one fits perfectly and the paint match is identical, I love it. Here iss the site I got mine from:
VG Shark Fin Antenna - Installation

Oh ya, if anyone uses this company for thiers, just email them asking for the "VG Mark II Antenna". They will get back to you really quickly and ask yoru paint code. They are really great and the antenna is fully integrated into the base on your roof so you lose absolutely no signal. Great Company and product.

Gotcha. I spoke to you in another thread about this. I just got the invoice from them. On it's way but mine is for the sedan but it's the same, mark II.

 

[rossfrost22]

Sweeeeeeeeeeeet!!!!, Cant wait to see it installed. It really makes a much bigger difference than I thought it would, and a great difference at that!

 

[OrangeCrush]

I'll agree it's looks sick as hell and jealous as a MoFo!!! I wanna get mine soooo bad now that we put yours on...

 

[rossfrost22]

Its gonna look even sicker on yours with the sunroof, Copperhead next to that dark tint of the sunroof will look so sweet!!!!

 

[OrangeCrush]

I fully agree it's gonna look sick... I'am just too impatient lol... We'll just have to go head to head one month for Car of the month once we get loaded out... Let everyone else decide lol...

 

[rossfrost22]

Wouldn't have it any other way!!!!

As soon as it's received and installed will throw up some pictures.

I strongly recommend putting some sort of clear coat on your emblems. I got the same ones like you, but in red. Mine look like crap after one winter.

 

[rossfrost22]

I will see if i still have some left over from my protection application. Thanks for the advice, good call.

I read the thread about the "K" emblems turning to crap after being exposed to the weather and someone said that some clear coats turn hazy after a short while. Any suggestions as to what clear coat would be best?

i have a question for orangecrush and rossfrost22. how are the races in Philly ? have you actually went to them in your forte? turn heads? i was planning on going there in summer but dont know the spots and a great forte meet/roll will be great what do you think?

 

[OrangeCrush]

We are actually in Pittsburgh not Philly and I can tell you the races around here are pretty good in the summer time and for the legal end we gotta head a lil north to the one track which is always packed... I posted a thread about a multi-car meet in Morgantown, PA on April 25th if you wanna try to make it it out...
