Sup everyone, I've been working on my Cruze for the past couple of months and it is almost to where I want it to be. This build has been fun, long, and tested my patience but everything comes with time and I love my Cruze. My Cruze is 2011 1LT and I have plenty of pics and I'll try to help and give details on what I added to my Cruze.

Looking nice!

I remember you posting saying you're in SoCal, what part? Also depending on what PART of SoCal you're in, cops wont really care about how dark you go with tint.

Thanks! I live in Santa Clarita, basically where Six Flags Magic Mountain is. The cops and CHP around here can be pretty picky about tint so I didn't go darker otherwise I would have. Aren't you moving to SoCal soon too?

 

[danielp23]

I have had 3 tint tickets in the Santa Clarita area for tint. I don't mess with the dark front windows anymore as I commute thru there on my way to work. The hassle isn't worth it.

Yeah exactly why I just went with 70%, really don't want to deal with tint tickets.

Looks great. Love the LTZ transformation....probably cost you about $1500 ( I'm guessing). Huge savings over the purchase of an actual LTZ.

Thanks! Yeah it was about $1600, a big savings over buying an actual LTZ and I got what I wanted on the car. I love how it looks now with the 18's, it really completes the car and I couldn't be happier.

 

[danielp23]

I'm digging three transformation. Looking good Daniel.

I'm a but worried about the seat covers and the effects on the air bags though. Pics of interior?

Thanks Mick! I never really took into account the airbags, thanks for that, I just kept the seat covers for the front two seats on cause the back three were too much of a hassle to keep snug in the seat, I'll try to post a pic tomorrow.

Me boosta nice looking Cruze Daniel!

Thanks iKermit(is it Danny?)! anyways haha appreciate the love

 

[danielp23]

Looks great... Thanks for the links.

Thank you! anything to help fellow Cruzers

 

[danielp23]

Not sure I guess I will wait for a pic. The front and back seats have air bags and I believe a few covers work witht he air bags. On a comp that blocks ebay,amazon and msn so I can't see the links yet.

Here's the seat covers for the front two seats, I took out the back bench seat covers.

 

[danielp23]

Very nice! The seat covers actually look pretty nice and not cheesy!

Yeah they are good seat covers with a clean look, thanks!

 

[danielp23]

I'm wayy out in Beaumont east of LA. Really nice and... sort of secluded from downtown craziness.

You're about two hours away from where I live, we should do a little Cruze meet up sometime in the future!

 

[danielp23]

Re-dipped the front fascia, dipped the side markers, chrome strip on the trunk and the wheels. Also got the CruzeNation decal on!

 

[danielp23]

Haven't updated on Mah Cruze in a while but I've done a bit and plan on doing more sometime in the following week, I plan on my applying some vinyl overlays on the foglights, vinyl over some of the chrome trim, led interior lights, re-dip the wheels gloss black, and smoke the tailights. Looking forward to working on my car over the winter break and here's a few shots of my car that I took last month in LA.

[danielp23]

Thanks Danny! I did last month, I'm going to submit for this month once I get some more pics.

 

[danielp23]

Thanks! I'm from Santa Clarita, these shots were taken in Downtown LA, right near Figueroa and the Staples Center. Fresno isn't too far where I live.

 

[danielp23]

It isn't too far, we definitely need to get a meetup here in Cali soon, I know a few guys who really want to do one.

 

[danielp23]

Pismo sounds real nice!

 

[danielp23]

Oh that's funny, my brother moved from slo to SD haha, but I might go visit a friend in slo next month.
