Default My painted headlight washer caps.

I got the car on 12/3 and I've been keeping busy with some DIY projects. I'm running out of projects.
So far I've done:
Painted headlight washers - light sand, 3 coats of metallic black clear coat
PSE install with panel switch - some major headaches, but totally worth is - see my thread for more details
Clear LED side markers
Painted rear reflectors
Ceramic coated PSE exhaust tips
Plastidip rear emblems
New aluminum dummy key
Rennline console phone mount - awesome
Replaced serpentine belt - some minor headaches
Zaino Z2 and Z5 car and wheels - still in process


Looking for ideas on what to do next.

Can I see a pic of your tips? No, that was not a misspelling.

Looks great! I have my plasti dip ready to go - hopefully tomorrow. Seems everyone on the forum is ceramic coating their tips and I want to do it too. I doubt many non-car enthusiasts would notice it but I know I would/do. Makes a really nice but subtle difference.

Not familiar with the AWE side wings - I'll check them out.

If I'm not tracking the car what's the benefit of the 3rd radiator?

You don't need a 3rd radiator.

When you put the center grill on it will look cool enough, IMO of course.

So, I can put the center grill on tbt stock bumper without having the center radiator? That does sound cool.

OP: Search the forums and you will learn that you personally, or your car, will not benefit from the 3rd radiator...spend your coin on some bling over that.
