Headlights are hands down the best investment ive made on the car, the improvement
over stock is insane.




Both strut bars are now on too - the front took like 5 minutes to install because I had to
find the torque wrench.

The rear takes some modifications:

First take the strut bar apart and fit the mounts:
Image

Then modify the seatbelt brackets so they fit overtop:
Image
Image

Cut out the molding section, fit the bar and bolt everything together:

Image
Image
Image

Finally cut out the speaker / seatbelt cover and put everything back together:
Image
Image
Image

Here is the front headlights, they are really nice.

Maybe hes not a rich a-hole like you put so elegantly.. Maybe he is good at saving money and only does mods that make sense and that increase the appeal and usefulness of the car..

Hm...

Very nice. Been eyeing those for a bit but wasn't sure. What brand did you go with, Mi|<e?

Ive been getting my tig on:

New 3" filter to go with the stainless compared to the old one:

Bung for vacuum on the valve cover:

And new stainless 3" intake:

Initial impressions are good, helps with spool time and starting spool rpm on the
turbo. Also seems to build boost much faster

This kind of feedback is why the worklog is worth doing.
