8/10 Threw on a UUC DSSR a few days ago; along with new bushings, selector, and seal since I was leaking.

8/11 Taped off the lips on the Style 10s; going to have the faces powdercoated with clear. 

8/12 Also finished sanding down the front valence, rear bumper, brake ducts, fog deletes, and mirrors. Prepped them and shot a base coat of something very similar to Cirrus.

Looks very silver-ish inside with the lights but very light blue in the sunlight..

Will take a few more pics once it's installed.. (Sorry for the shitty iPhone pics; wish I carried my 5D with me)

Thank you! 

Threw on the back bumper since it was easy; my buddy's finishing up my euro trim so pretty soon that should be on there..

Also should have my driveshaft from TMS tomorrow along with laying the powder-coating on the Style 10's..

Been super busy with work so not much progress this last week..

8/17 - Finished my rear shift carrier bushing - Delrin 

Still waiting on the shift selector seal thats leaking so I can put the driveshaft in and stop leaking. 

8/18 - Picked up a set of IX side skirts and fender flares this morning off a fellow r3vv'r. Going to have some fun with these.. 

Stay tuned..

Found some new shoes at the store today... 

Kinda eager to get them machined and put on, might have to sell the style 10s or put them aside..

8-28-2013

Got them home..

They make the bottle cap look so thin...

For the price I got them for, 16 x 8.5" is pretty much exactly what I wanted, might not be BMW or typical mesh but eh ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Its been done obviously; and If you do it right it doesnt look too bad. 

Plus, I like them sorta cause they remind me of the OZs' kinda, sorta, not exactly, but you get the point...

I like them a lot more than the saw blades people usually use. Plus they have "fans" ha. 

Just trying to piss the purists off I guess..

Fuego.
