Wasn't able to fix wind noise / Few Mod Pics

So I drove into work today, and was unable to reproduce that wind noise this morning. My guess is that it is something in my AC/HEAT. I assume I will see it again at some point, when the AC/HEAT is blowing in the same configuration that it was then. The weather has been changing here, so the AC/HEAT control has been slowing down quite a bit!

In any case. I took some pictures. I am no photographer like what seems to be everyone else on xout, but I will show you the few things I have done so far.

Edit, List the mods:

Kidney Grill surround; flat black.

Behind the mesh in the front, you can see what looks like foglights. They are strobes (I own a construction company). I also have the rear bulbs inside the reverse lights in the tails.

The switch for them is push button style, and can be seen on the picture of the ash tray.

Chrome Gauge Rings (wonderful DIY on the board here, but still, what a pain in the butt!)

Custom mounted, and surround for the Alpine W505 with Nav, Sirius, ipod (in the glovebox)...

Can't help you with wind noise, sorry.

Couple of nice mods done there. Hope you're going to change out the steering wheel, you'll love the walrus tooth sports one when you fit it.

[I am no photographer like what seems to be everyone else on xout] Maybe next time wheel the X out of the garage so we can all see her in all it's glory, and not just the front end. GL with future mods.

Sounds like a plan for outside the garage. Looking at these pictures, it simply does not do it justice. Ill have to show it off better next time. (After the steering wheel) and maybe springs.
