I've been reading this site since I found my 03 300A in May 05. I've even replied to a few posts. I hope I'm worthy to start this thread.:bows:

Unfortunately, I wrecked it in August. The bright side is it gave me the time and inclination to do what I always do.... make it mine!:D

I wanted to take the time to thank everyone on this site for their opinions and help. Thanx Logan and Lowell for the AVIC help. Thanx Wes for the JLT. Thanx to tons of muffler opinions. Especially thanx for saving me the time and money with the trial and error I used to go through when I was a 'ricer'.:)

Thanx to Mrs. Magindat. She made me hold out for the 'dream car' instead of settling for the CVPI or CVS or GM. She even painted her nails to match when the paint job was done! (See Gallery)

Hope I got the signature right so you can see the mod list. Take a look at the gallery and post your thoughts. I'll be glad to comment later about sizing the wheels or anything else...

BTW, that's Magindat Jr. in the windshield. (I told her to duck!)

Thanx.
Rich

Friends, this ain't no photoshop!!! WYSIWYG!

Speaking on stripes... didn't someone post pics of an MM with stripes ala Starsky & Hutch?

Glad to see that you've recovered from the wreck !
That's also a pretty cool paint scheme...

All you need now is the rear window sun shade that mounts outside
on the window frame and your beauty is complete !!!
