Thanks! I bought it as part of a group buy set up by kamispeed but @SurfAndSand ordered it on his own and paid $30 less than the group buy. He also received his before the group buy participants.

The wheel is of the highest quality... it really looks and feels great!

All I had to change was the xB-like icon from the new shell to the car icon from my original control.

Planned on installing my Mishimoto radiator today but because I did not receive some Mishimoto t-bolt clamps I was waiting for I decided on taking on another project...

Got around to some polishing: Used Blue Magic polish, some microfiber towels, a Dremel with polishing tips, and some manual labor.

Before and after

AC Condenser Brackets are being powder coated anodized red... should look sharp!

Polished one on top... bottom one partially started.

Been playing around with adding a different grille to my front bumper... it is the same grille material I used in my OEM reverse light assembly delete.

The toughest part so far has been deciding on the least intrusive way to secure the grille to the bumper. I think I have found a solution though. I will also sand the tab surfaces to reveal the unpainted black color below. That will help to blend the tabs with the grille.

Depending on how this turns out... I might just get rid of the tabs and go without a grille...

Still waiting on a few things to arrive so in the meantime... more polishing!

Amazing how "Little Details" can make such a huge difference. Great work and keep it up!
