Thats where I wanna get to but I need washer fluid and a/c for weather here :(. I'll definitely look into drilling some holes and re-routing some things though in the future.

Looks damn good though :thumbs up

i didn;t actually drill any holes.
if u look at this pic closely

u can see i route some wiring into the fender and then from there it goes under the headlights and back up the other fender. the easiest way to do it is to take off ur front bumper and headlights then loosen the top of the fenders. by removing the entire front wiring harness thing, u can unwrap and rewrap wires. stuff some back in under the dash and other places. there;s enough slack on the wires to get it all tucked away without any major modification.

in the future i;m removing the power steering and getting a slim fan as well as relocation the coolant reservior. the oem fan is massive. also i;d like to relocate the fuse box by the battery as well as the battery.

I didn't mean to say you drilled holes. I meant in the future, I want to drill holes and go all out with this. I just want to get where you are without any major modifications to the chassis. But I understand what you're saying about taking some of the harness apart and re-wrapping. I was thinking about doing that but a bat died on the front end of my car and I have to wash the whole front bumper and inside the front end before touching anything down there.

Definitely looks really good no matter how you did it

thats what i thought at first to but this is better

Get that throttle cable out of there.

Bend it downward into the engie bay and hold it down there with that metal clip that holds a wiring harness thats low down on the strut tower on the side.


Looks damn good.

Tucking D-series is gonna become the new SI rim :lol:
