Mr.sparco, how'd you get those splitters fiberglassed and painted so quickly? Is the chronology of your picture posting not true to the chronology of the actual project? Or do you have massive amounts of time on your hands lol

How I spent my week off from work:

Day 1 - picked up sides, measured, cut, taped, fiberglass with 25 min cure resin.
Day 2 - sand, primer, paint.
Day 3 - made brackets out of aluminum.
Day 4 - responded to SRY110.
Day 5 - final install, hopefully...

Yesterday I cleaned and organized my garage after living in our new place for a month. Doesn't really count as getting something, but I did feel very accomplished getting it done.....

(Does anyone need OEM mid pipes or muffler? )

Next up is my new-ish Daily Driver. I've been daily driving the Z since I got her back in 2010. Now she gets even more pampered, only coming out when it's nice enough...

2005 Mazda3 Hatchback 5MT that I've been calling "Hatchie". Not my favorite color, but I got a pretty good price and the interior is immaculate except one small scratch. She's got some bruises on the outside, but perfect for Daily Duty.

^ Nice, adding some particle boards up in those rafters would give you a lot more space for storing things you don't need around on a regular basis (stock exhaust)

Thanks for the pointer, there is plenty of space though, it's a two car SIZED garage, but the guy who built it (bless his ignorant heart) put a wall up and made the other side almost livable.... No running water or anything, but that's where I could put stuff(just wanted it to look car partsy-see old steering wheel/license plate/OEM exhaust .... I have 3 bicycles, a box spring, the mower and random junk on the other side.... Just had to get the sanctuary set up

Plus this is just a rental, I don't want to spend ANY money on improvements if I don't have to.... If I had bought this place, these pictures would be of me taking a sledge hammer to the "front wall" to put in another stall to make it a true 2 car..

Save you time and don't bother with particle board. Plywood or bust. That particle board will expand triple its size after it gets wet and drys. Plywood is not water proof but will with stand it bettered

For the wife and Guest bathroom: Just made this today. Not complete needs toekick and finished side

Correct, that's what I meant to say, I just had a brain fart and couldn't remember what it was called. Plywood also doesn't sag between the beams when it gets hot and humid.

Yeah I saw it, I was just continuing the convo with NA&CH. If it were me Id spend the few buck and just take them with when ya move. But if you have enough space anyways then it's all a moo point.
