Finished some various minor interior stuff I've been putting off for a long time. Made a bracket to mount a fire extinguisher and the passenger seat occupancy sensor (so I don't get an airbag light with the passenger seat removed); sewed together a transmission tunnel cover out of car carpet

OLM spats.
Spent 2 hours fighting with the MFing fender liner and junk. Then read on here that a guy took a 3/8 drill bit and made his own holes, used the car's hardware and threw away the included junk. Done in 5 minutes.

Installed one of these DSS alu driveshafts. Got it used locally for a good price and thought why not. This is the only pic I have of the thing



Also while I was at the mechanic, they told me I mounted two of my wheels the wrong way. Didn't realize they were directional. That explains the weird handling which is now completely resolved. Embarrassing

Installed the underbody panels we didn't get in the early years. Great success.

Just got my VLand headlights in on Friday! I have a few other parts coming too - smoked triple LED bar switchback side markers, and the Polaris LED Fangs that I posed a question on a month or two ago... gonna wait to get it all in before taking off the front bumper cover. Also have the Intec LED fender garnish that needs to be put on, since I have to remove the front anyways for the headlights.

Lastly, I contacted VLand about their H7 ballast versus D2H since I've read countless viewability problems. I was being frugal and bought the OLM headlights, as they came pre-built with the lights instead of spending an extra $150 for the D2H conversion kit. Im pretty sure I can just order some D2H bulbs and use the same ballast that was included, both are 55W and look identical on their website.

EDIT: Also modeled and 3D printed a SLAYER logo for my 3rd brake, since I have the Valenti on the bottom. Always wanted to do this in every car and finally have haha





Brake for Fuckin Slayer!!

I'm stoked to get it all done finally!
