Attached are some pictures of my latest additions to my KOUP. I did quite a few things since the last time I posted here on our forum, so check them out and I would enjoy your thoughts and feedback.
The new additions are as follows:
>New custom grill
>HID 6K Headlights
>Koup EX Fog light Conversions
>Interior Blue and Black Carbon Fiber Dash kits
>Custom made GPS unit above dash (my favorite)
These new additions go along well with my interior LEDs with foot-wells as well as the few exterior additions such a my shark-fin, debadging and tint. I should have my LED Taillights in by the end of next week so I will post pics when done installing them.

Let me know what y'all think of my new additions, Thanks!!!!:cool:

I ordered the actual dash kit hood that holds the GPS from Korean Auto Imports, however, when it arrived It is way to shallow to install a standard double din GPS. So what I did was kinda retrofitted a 7" portable GPS into the space with metal brackets. All the wiring fits nicely out of site behind the dash and it works great. Even though I was forced to do it this way, I love it and it works great.

P.S. I was actually in Fort Worth Texas last week for a interview. Way to hot for me, lol!! It must take a special type of person to live in that heat and humidity year round, just not for me!

Ya for a job interview two weeks ago. That southern climate is just not for me whatsoever! I did however, just accept a position in Seattle this week, so thats were I am headed. Much more my type of weather and available activities like skiing, camping, and the ocean is right there too.

You must just be a different breed. It definatley takes a unique type of person do live in that heat and humidity every day. I would never be able to handle it.
