Got my Veilside lip yesterday. I need to get it fitted and painted. Doesn't line up perfectly and I'm missing the Veilside emblem that goes in the middle.

 

Couple more items I got in the other day. I need a better camera. Phone pics FTL

 

^^
Super fun time!!!

 

Just received my new KY0 06+ front bumper yesterday. Already wrapped my grill inserts with 3M 1080 Carbon Fiber. Debating on wrapping the lower lip with it as well.

It looks so much better than the 03-05 front bumper.

 

#2 bank plugs removed last night, i may just reinstall them, they are in good condition.

 

How's the color match? I've read KY0 is really hard to match

Post pics

 

I'm hoping it is lol

Not fun spending the $$$$$ though

 

It looks pretty good IMO, especially not having anything to match from my Z. I offered my gas cap buy they said don't bother.

I'll post pics later tonight or tomorrow.

 

installed the 5/16 plenum spacer last night,
along with the plenum ive been sanding and polishing by hand (5 days of sanding from 3 till ~midnight)
not the best but i did it myself ill go back and fix some spots eventually
i just wanted to get it over with for now

and FML i screwed up one of my strut bar holes where the screw goes in
any advise?

 

Sorry to hear about crossthreading... That sucks. I will say, however, you just made up my mind for me. I was planning on getting my intake manifold either polished or coated but I wasn't sure if it would look good. I now know

 

five, nine hour days of sanding!? i dont think you did it the right way. i would have bought some kind of electrical something lol. but hey it looks awesome

edit: all the bolts in there are stainless so you should get a wire brush for an electric drill and polish them out too. or check out the diy engine bay thread to add some different color

 

Run a tap thru it, happens all the time.

 

That polished intake looks great! Just chase the thread and if need be up one size bolt.... easy fix.

Replaced the eBay air filter and installed this.. JWT pop.. Sorry for the horrible pic.



Also started the UpRev tuning.

 

i did the same thing with my plenum. i feel your pain. haha

i had some stripped strut bar nuts, i drilled and tapped for a 12x1.75mm. i doubt ill strip these out anytime soon.

btw, body harness wires have been tucked since pic.
