I'd have to find a good color match, so not sure yet, but maybe in the future.

I think I am switching to a better material too.. just waiting on samples. I'll let you know.

Went to the Subaru dealership today to get replacement rear bumper brackets that broke when I was removing my rear bumper a while back to install my defuser.

At the parts desk in front of me is some younger dude asking the parts guy to sell him a Cobb AccessPort with the understanding that if he buys it there, he will be covered by warranty if anything bad happens. He then says if his motor blows, they would need to prove that the AccessPort was the cause to deny a warranty claim. Douche then says "but I only want this to get details about the engine that aren't provided in the dash information". The parts guy then tells him scenarios in the past that they have proved it was aftermarket parts or a bad install that was the cause which resulted in a warranty denial.

After he walked away, the parts guy rolled his eyes and took a deep breath and looked at me "How can I help you?"

Swapped in some Pentosin MTF2 in my trans. Last night I installed Diode Dynamics LED reverse lights. I'm not overly blown away by either.

The MTF2 seems to make the transmission feel more "mechanical" and like there's less fluid damping the shifting motion. It's definitely not worse than my stock gear oil, especially since the stock gear oil had a lot of metallic particles in it.

The LEDs are simply nowhere near as bright as I thought they would be and I went for the brightest ones that are sold. Oh well, still an improvement over stock.

TURD PARTS! Late night installs.

Added more rigidity to chassis!

Thank you @Apeks and @1GiantTurtle for the help and tools, also @thien for the tool box and those salty cookies.

The OEM screws on the chassis are on SUPER tight(this was the toughest part), it's pretty simple with proper tools, and even more easy with someone helping you hold the stabilizer in place while you put the new screws in.
