Installed my plenum spacer and bronze powdercoated plenum. Dunno how I feel anout the powdercoating yet but I'll wait till I see it in the sunlight. Looks more like baby-**** brown than bronze.

My mad driving skills over the weekend. Time to get the race pads off it, and oil change so I can drive it on the street a couple times before the next track outing.

Ugh. It was supposed to be a matte metallic bronze but it doesn't look that great now that it's installed. It doesn't have quite enough gold in it - I think that's the problem. We all make mistakes, right?


Although, I will say - it's growing on me. It looks a million times better in person than in pictures and when the light hits it the metallic really sparkles. It just wasn't *quite* what I was looking for.

Sh*t happens. Sometimes literally. Nobody's perfect. As long as you're happy with it (not completely but you get my point) f**k it.

Yeah it's fine for now, I'll eventually have it re-done when I pick a better color for my harness bar, wheels, strut bar and, of course, plenum to match
