It's a Lamin-x tinted overlay.

Ebay purchase. I had 3 Jeep Wranglers (almost 250k miles in them) before I got this car. I went cheap because I was convinced I would destroy them quickly in my first lowered car. I like that style, and I will most likely change them out for Carbon Fiber ones (same style) soon. Now that I have gained some experience driving this low.
Probably give them away to someone who needs them when I change them out as I have done with everything I have changed out.

Someone should product this instead of selling the whole part for $$$$

Perrin Inlet and Filter

Put 350+ miles on the car today and could really notice the smoother torque curve and hp gains from this weekend's OFT/Header install. Came home and had a package waiting for me: a Perrin Inlet hose and foam air filter. Engine bay looks so much cleaner now!

I got my dirt cheap ($140! shipped and painted!) TRD clone spoiler today. I test fit it then put on the 3M tape they included (plus some extra, see the wider tape in the front corners). Pretty easy to install it, and fitment is spot on, which I was amazed by.

Did the clutch slave cylinder swap: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=77390

Wishing I had done it long ago... was starting to really not like this car because of the obnoxious clutch feel/response.

I want a duckbill! but i really want the KM4SH or Legsport...

Made a sub enclosure with my buddy, 10" JBL. I'm happy with it! Considering I've only ever done fiberglass once before it's not bad. Little rough around the edges but the carpet hides that decent. Sounds fantastic, much needed boost.



Installed with a JBL GX-A602 2 channel amp hidden cleanly under the passenger seat.

Nicely done! This is one of my winter projects.

All of these comments about the swap REALLY has me motivated to do mine.
