    Awww, dammit... That sucks. I may end up selling the RAYS if I can't get them to look right on the car.

    That all? You got, like, another 3K+ miles left on them! (I may know a thing or two about running Comp 2s to death, ha.)

    We have similar problems... Do not sell the wheels, they look amazing against the car. Just treat yourself to the FCM suspension Chad was selling. ;)

    I started the process of mounting the Curt receiver to the car. After getting 3 of the 4 required holes drilled, my step-bit promptly gave up on life, and would not cut any further.

    Guess I need a trip to harbor freight, before I can carry my bike around.

    Finally assembled the messed up center caps off the MS01-R wheels. Only like 3 years later

    Full Race Port & Polish cylinder head job. Tomei intake and exhaust camshafts. Also complete Supertech valve train upgrade including Supertech bucket lifters. This job is costing me a fortune in part OOff! it better be worth it.

    Used the 3M headlight restorer that KFJ had recommended. Worked like a champ.

    Today, I'll receive the last of my brake parts. Hopefully, I'll be able to do the install this weekend.

    Tonight I may try to install the new window bushings, and clean/re-grease the guides. I do have the regulators, and the glass actually, from the 2000, so that could make the job a freaking snap.

    Waiting on an order from garagestar that should be here tomorrow. Getting a stainless ebrake lever and a radiator cooling plate. Just some shiny stuff before a show this weekend. The wife has expressed interest in me getting seats that will keep us below the rollbar, I really want a set of the cobra classics or something similar

    I put the last Hardtop plate for the rear feet. Hardtop sits real nice now. Will see if I still get the vibrating noise in the back but I think I got it. The white rubber part of the plate on the old ones were so worn out. Just wish that I would have ordered both at the same time to save on shipping.

    Check also if you have the rubber gaskets that go underneath the feet, between the feet and the car.

    Glad your top is right. I need to either start refreshing my hard top, or sell it. Weather's been too nice to rock it, so it's been top down, mostly.

    I was able to install the new bushing in the passenger window on lunch break. Forgot how much of a PITA removing the power window regulators are. Will do the Driver Side tonight.

    Managed to install my radiator cooling plate and garagestar handbrake at work this evening


    I scuffed up the polished handle with a red scotchbrite pad to give it a similar finish to the rest of my brushed aluminum interior accents
