Much to my surprise, the tracking numbers supplied to me for my tire order says they are being delivered today!

They were ordered less than 24 hours ago. Props to www.discounttiredirect.com

I will hopefully be able to get them mounted tomorrow and test fit them on Friday.

I got ants in my pants now!!!!!!!

Roller Update

UNU — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 14:39:20 +0000

The wheels were delivered yesterday.

After taking one out of the box and putting it up to the side of the vehicle, I decided to keep them the way they are.

I will get photos of them when I get home after work today.

I ordered tires for them today and hope to have them by early next week at the latest.

Wheels Ordered

UNU — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 18:32:25 +0000

Just got back from our two week vacation in Europe. Before I left, I ordered the wheels.

They should have been here when I got back. There is a slight delay and I hope to get them sometime this coming week.

Adapters arrived though, so that is one step closer!

Wiped The Rear

The rear wiper was throwing off the look of the rear so I deleted it.

Custom Blinker Bulbs

UNU — Sat, 30 Jan 2010 02:32:53 +0000

The rear blinker bulbs stick out like a soar thumb. I wanted to eliminate the orange color so I decided to do the same thing I did to my front blinker bulbs on my Rabbit. It’s rather easy and only costs ~$5.00.

All you need to buy is a can of Dupli-Color High Heat Aluminum spray paint.

Holding the can a ~16 inches from the bulb, spray in small bursts. I split the bulb into 4 sections, spraying a burst or two on each section of the bulb. Then, one final burst on the top of the bulb.

It will look like the bulb is covered and no light will shine through. STOP!

The light will shine through, don’t worry.

UPDATE: Below are day and night photos of the custom blinker bulbs.

Coilovers Delivered

UNU — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 22:29:58 +0000

The coilovers were delivered this morning.

Not sure when the install is going to happen. Either this weekend or next.
