Prety old thread but i just moved to the NW region.  Bangor, WA but i'll be out in bremerton quite often   Just got my venge 8 months ago but i love it.  Here she is

anyone here have any pics of an actual venge with a carbon fiber Viper (camaro SS type) hood? i'd love to see a pic

damn, woulda loved that rear lip, i just transfered from CT to WA and ran through PA, wish i'd of known around the 7th

i'm realy intersted in getting some coating done but the big problem is i only have one vehicle since the navy moved me to WA state and i cant get my other car here till tax time.  I see you stock some parts to coat but i didnt see any for the avenger on your site.  It was totaly empty.  Do you do any part ordering to coat if someone was to ask?

Or does anyone here know where you can get MISC new motor parts for the 2.5 v6 so i could send em in for coating ( ie... brackets, intakes, bolts, valve covers, etc..)?

that non squeel greese people seem to put on the back, seems to work for a short time for me anyway and then get more annoying in the end.  I just make sure i buy nice pads and i never have a problem with it if the rotors are fine.

heres the link check this pic out and tell me what ya think

awesome thanks, the pic at the site shows the avenger trunk lid on the sebring?  i know they are universal but what would happen to the black bar with the backuplights?
The trunk lids i was seeing that was carbon fiber only went down to that black bar and then remained silver underneath it, how was this achieved?  i'll see if i can find a pic

well i only drove for a few mins like that and stoped.  Today i lifted each wheel off the ground and loosened and retorqued them all.  I then went and broke the rotors in by doing some 30-0 40-0 and 60-0 stops.   What do you know, works like a champ no 0 pulsing!  I thank you for the input  

I've seen a few pics of venges with carbon fiber trunk lids.  Where are you all getting them at?  I'd love to pick one up to go with the viper style carbon fiber hood i'm ordering.

thanks,  i'm looking at a carbon fiber viper style hood and also a carbon fiber trunk if i can find out where people get it at.  Should look prety good i'll ditch the spoiler if i find the turnk lid

i might be interested but i'd definetly have to see some pics

Well heres the finished product. Tell me what you think.





(the 2nd alumapro alchemy rx was sent back for reconing.

originaly i didnt.  I only had my small ratchet with the socket and tightened it down as damn tight as i could.  I went back later today and retorqued them after i bought the socket i needed for my torque wrench.  Maybe i should relift up each wheel and retorque em?  I try that first thing in the mornin.

I would of originaly but i bought the heavy duty black sockets and they were to thick to fit with the new rim .  So i got the new 19mm deep socket today that fitted.

I have a 2000 venge.  I just put some crossed drilled/slotted rotors on, painted the calipers and put some 18's on the car.  I blead the 4 calipers already.  For some reason i'm getting pretty good pulsing when i break thats driving me nuts lol.  Anyone have any ideas? 
Could it be since i drained all the break fluid and hwen i filed it up didnt blead the master cylinder?  I read in the book i needed t odo it but had no idea how to or even where it is located.  Any help/suggestions would be great.

Well i bought the dremel today for about 60 bucks.  It's prety nice, ended up buying a seperate carbon mini wheel.  I been sanding the calipers down with the small sandpaper attachment first, and then cleanin em up with the carbon wheel.  The rotors are really rough and rusty.  The sandpapers really smoothing it out and geting rid of the horrible bumps.  This way when i get down to it and paint it, it wont look so lumpy.  I'm prety much taking em to bare mettal at the moment.  Theres still a bit of either paint (what it was stock) or alittle rust down in small dimples on the caliper even after i run over it with the wheel.  I dont think its a big deal though.  I think the paint should stick just fine as long as its been gone over.
When i go to paint i will end up removing the calipers completely, but i'm going to need to bleed the lines.  I havnt done this before so let me throw a guess.  Do i basicaly just rehook the line back up, then have someone pump the brakes and hold it,  then i loosen the screw lookin thing on the caliper itself, let the air out, retighten, rinse and repeat?  Is that right?
