Weekend Damage
Construction in Down Town Seattle left a 6 inch gap in the road fill with water. I didnt not know its depth and proceeded to creep through it and the FMIC hit the ground. Unaware that the previous owner had left the OEM Tow Hook on the center member, the FMIC got pushed into the tow hook and popped a hole in it. As I am typing this, our fabricator at our shop is cleaning out the wound and welding it back up. We will pressure and flow test it to make the job was done right.



While I had things apart I took my free time over the holiday to get a few things done.


EZlip Installed


Opened up the headlights and blacked them out to Evo 9 spec. I know they are couldy, going to buff them up this weekend.


Rexpeed CF Side spat and skirts on


Goodie box from Rexpeed arrived today.


Got the Vortex Generator and CF shorty antenna installed. Note to everyone: I have seen alot of threads of people's blowing off. Be sure you grind out/sand the antenna base opening to allow it to come all the way through. If you dont, the antenna base will push on the VG which might be why the VG is separating itself from the car an opening up a gap that is letting the air get under there to rip it off the car.

Rendering a friend made of what the car will basically look like when done. Besides the CF fuel door, that was his doing.

The attempt to seal the FMIC back up


Mad Cow is only making 21PSI down from her normal 25PSI so i still have a small leak some where.
She is now all put back together though, and needs a bath. but its 36degrees out and i dont feel like freezing.
She is also on her new winter wheels i just picked up from a fellow member. MB Comp 17x9 +27 on 255/40/17 Conti All-Seasons

Got me a Cusco Brace. Tossed it on before the car gets picked up by Lucas to head down to English for a build. Expect a big update in a month
