How difficult is it to pop that clip to get out the old markers?

It's not difficult, but I would still watch a video of how to do it. I lost the spring clip the first time I took one of mine out.

It's not too difficult to get out. The driver's side came out and went back in on a single try. The passenger side came out easy enough but took some adjustments to get the spacing right on the "A" clip.

After driving around with a single exit nameless muffled track pipe paired with my Gruppe-S UEL headers being really loud everywhere, I decided to put the stock muffler back on. It's pretty fun being silent, I know I'll be putting my louder system back on eventually but for now its nice to be able to zip around without turning as many heads due to noise.

Reading between the lines (silent bits..), were you booked for noise breaches?

Picked it up from the shop after their 3rd attempt to make the front half of the car the same color as the back half.

They’ve failed and I’m done with them. Guess at this point I should just rice the hell out of it...

Can’t really see the difference but I’m sure it’s more obvious in person. Why is it different shades in the first place? Also, be sure to document your ricefication here. I’m interested lol

What in the f- how are the shades so different? Why haven't they just repainted the whole car?

Bowl Full of Crazy · 02-08-2020, 10:15 PM

Changed the oil with Motul 300V 0W20.

Hit a deer and fender/bumper needed to be replaced. They blended back through the door and the color... is not quite right. And by that it looks tan by comparison. Even worse, because they took the door handle off to paint it, the door handle is the original color, hah.

Idk where to start. It’s got 100k miles and isn’t worth putting a ton into, and I’m usually a clean/OEM+ guy. Maybe I’ll ditch the STX regs and do something silly with it idk.

Finished interior and exterior LED updates. No halogens left on this go-cart!

Installed latch and hinge protectors. (It's amazing what you'll pick up to get free shipping)

Also installed OEM mud guards

i know you all love laughing at people who install performance parts in their driveway and end up ruining their car, so head over to my build thread if you want a good laugh. i installed rLCA today, on top of the coils i did few weeks ago. and now my car is actually dangerous to drive. dont worry, i only ruined it temporarily.
