Luckily, the tire shop is much more reasonable so I'll have a professional do that bit.
Here ya go!

What did I do to my FRS today? Well I signed the title over to someone else. It was fun while it lasted, but no car payment is a lot more fun. Time to fix up my E30.

Hahaha. You'll get photos of the finished product, if I'm not too drunk to remember it by the end of the weekend.

Also just got the email from Wheeldude. Everything is shipped now

Actually started this on Sunday during the Superbowl and did a few more adjustments today.

Anyway, I've 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.

Reverse Light Assembly Delete Mod

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...



Not a lot of surface space to latch onto...

Finally fixed my ProClip mount - they don't make one for the cheapo ASUS tablet I used for torque so I tried to find the closest one - but it doesn't work perfectly and had a lot of vibration and it shifted under hard turns. Bought a roll of foam weather sealant tape and padded up the loose edges!
Easy enough lol.

A couple of the displays on torque are just there out of personal interest haha. I'm really just interested in coolant and oil. Cheaper than a gauge for light track use!
