Lol I'd rather get cash than something I will never use. That way I could exactly what I wanted. Unless its from the fiancé. That would be a slap in the face.

id rather everybody besides wifey give me cash because 90 percent of what i get may be nice or expensive, but it dosent mean much to me if i dont want it or need it.

I have a quick question again if you don't mind sharing more of your wisdom with me once more lol, are there any clips that hold the grille trim to the grille base?

Just wondering if part no. 3 clips directly into part no.1, if not which clips will need to be purchased?

Part #3 has several tiny screws (i think 9) that hold it in place on the black plastic base. Part #10.

up close view. I dont have any from the other side.

Well I expected holiday boredom to set in on me, so I left myself a few tiny projects to pass time.

Yesterday I started to polish up my Griffin radiator. I think it turned out pretty nice for just using some compound over and OVER!

dull start...boring!!!


The Blue Magic starting to set in...


after just one application


before shot


after :thumbs up


hard to tell in the pics, but it's so shiny that it reflects a beam of light on my wall just above it


:hi:

^that looks great man! You should've photoshopped mr cleans face into it! Lol jk I've got a weird sense of humor, cartoonish.
I bet if you took a pic of that room hybrid could post it as the (almost) complete EK-k swap kit.

Damn.. Hopefully that shine will stay for a while.
It does. I've done it on a half sized no name radiator for my old b16a swap and it stayed shiny and just wipes clean.

I like the Mr. Clean idea hahaha!!!
and yeah, im not missing too many other hybrid parts, shifter cables, clutch line, header, intake, mounts, and sub-harness. I plan to get them eventually, minus the header of course.

Looks good man. Do you prefer Blue Magic over Mother's Metal Polish? I have Mother's, but if the Blue Magic lasts longer then I will gladly switch.

It's funny, when I feel stagnant in my build or frustrated, I re-read both your threads, and its weird how I always spend money when I'm done.
