Bought my FT86 Speed Factory header.

Next up, nameless front pipe/overpipe.

And waiting, of course.

Thanks, I ended up just squeezing it out by hand under warm water and then soaking/washing it with regular hand soap. I'll try alcohol/acetone next time!

Just did the diode dynamics foglights today!

Install was pretty easy, but I found that pushing the lights into the frame was harder than it showed in the video, so I trimmed a but of the plastic off of the housing so it would slide in more smoothly. It's the squared off bit of plastic (about 2 cm wide) right near the glass.

Took it to a professional photo shoot! Can't wait to get the real pictures soon.

Here's the little plastic section I trimmed down. Only have to do the side you're forcing past the framing.

Also, once you're done, you'll notice a small gap between the bezel and the lights themselves. It's about 2-3mm wide. I emailed Diode Dynamics about this gap and they said it's as intended and not to worry about water getting in and shorting out the lights.

Isn't winter almost over in your neck of the woods?
