Thanks but I don't think my POS is even close to COTM winners. I got long ways to go. They are my inspirations though.
Thanks! ![]() Thanks man, just following your steps. Center caps, didn't had time to put them in. Maybe this week. I sent gorilla lugs to get powder coated. You think that would look ok? |

The red parts looks good installed, I do not think there is too much red in the engine bay. Are you thinking of have some more parts of the engine bay powder coated? Maybe also start dressing it up even more?

Ryan, buddy. I like it all so far minus the gas cap. The secret to mixing a couple colors like that (especially red) is to oh so subtly use it. If the gas cap was black like the car, I'd say you're spot on. That's my only complaint

Maybe turquoise...
![]() Ordered SS brake line... dang wesellcarparts ships fast! Didn't expect it to be here today. ![]() I was trying to get my CCFL fogs workin' again. One side is fine, but the other I changed the inverter and still won't light up. I don't feel like tearin' that thing apart with all the silicone seal around it, so screw it I'll just run the demon eyes on it. I'm trying to have them on for the NJ meet at Sandy Hook. |

Nice how much were the brake lines? Ryan, have you thought about fitting mustang center caps on those tenzos? The big mustang caps that are flat with no emblem on them? I have some I can send you that you can try. If they fit you will need to find one more and just paint it black

I was gonna order before the price hike.

SS lines were 114 or 119 (109 + 6% PA tax) shipped. Ok I'll let you know. I already have tenzo center caps coated, just been lazy to put them on because I'm waiting for the lugs. But I won't mind trying the ones you have. |

About your prob.. you need check CL or ebay they have the chrome ones there. Won't the original lenses fit back after you remove the Y shaped thingy? I haven't done any tail light mod myself so I'm the wrong guy to ask

Installed cabin air filter today. Finally got around doing it.
Tray ![]() used a box cutter for cut the hole ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Hoping it'll help lessen the dust in the interior and of course, cleaner air. |

I remember when I replaced my cabin air filter in 2010. That thing was very dirty and had leaves all around it. After I replaced it, there was a noticeable difference in the cleanliness of the air. It smelled so much more fresh and there wasn't as much dust gathering around on the interior hardly as much anymore. A cheap and worthwhile replacement if it's dirty as Raman's asshole if you ask me.

That's why I wanna start with the rears first. Then see If I have to replace the fronts as well. The prob with my fronts is I drill the bracket to a 1/2 hole to fit the bigger bolt and sleeve that I used there. Hopefully I don't need to change the front even with the non-solid mount there.

actually maybe throwing in the stock trans mount might help you. seeing as that is where the difference is although having a solid one there helps out a lot.

Installed OBX silicone rad hoses today, also my grille and fogs are making a comeback...
![]() ![]() 5k HIDs in fogs (kind looks bluish, Idk) ![]() I'm gonna wire the demon eyes one fogs to a switch soon. When I washed the car yesterday, the tail lights fogged =( I tried to open them and caused a lil crack on the lens Oh well, I'll still roll with it, just put some weather stripping at the top part of it.

![]() Thanks! Went back to OEM rear mount, and when driving around today I think the shake has been reduced. Before it would even jingle the keys. But now it's very minimal on the steering wheel. OBX hoses I installed the other day you can see on this pic. ![]() ![]() ![]() Sleeved Rear Poly mount. I might sell it if anybody wants it ![]()
