FMIC, Samco's, TTDA full hose, EVO heat shield, clear corners, and magnets done.

It's been a fun two days Thursday night through this morning with a break for a Billy Joel concert, but my list is done. Many thanks to McPaudiTT, MarTT, Schwing, and BlueTTop for their very helpful Fotki's. Thankfully my heatshield lined up pretty well with my head...

And to answer your question steve, I'm off to help NaTTyBoh install some coilover's... plus some other stuff, painting the front door, two birthday dinners, that easter thing...

Hmm. Those blades look familiar. Nice job, Dan. Plan to mount my front plate like you did. Any tips?

I installed the blades (finally) about a month ago. If you mean how I mounted my plate up, that

was just a drill and 4 screws, but I like the look a lot better than the standard mount, the black mount looks too big on a silver car. If you're referring to the magnet mount, all I did was epoxy 8 rare earth magnets inside the bumper. I still need to epoxy 8 magnets on the back of the current plate mount and 8 on the back of my german plate so I swap between them. Then at some point I need to get a blank (no holes) front plate valance and set that one up too.

As to tips, after you put the magnet in the epoxy, tape it down. Once I put the second magnet in the epoxy they began to migrate towards each other... Had to tape them down.
