                  I have my cap painted wrinkle black already. I would just need to machine it at work. I just want to leave it straight wrinkle black to match everything else=)

                    Ok... but it could be the centerpiece of the engine bay.

                      Well I got nothing done on my compact Saturday. I did however work on a Alexs compact with him and Andy=D
                      CAM00124zps76291edd.jpg

                      We spent the day doing trans mounts and replacing the csb. When we got it all apart the csb was absolutely destroyed. The rubber around the bearing completely tore and the bracket was also snapped. We installed the new one and buttoned everything back together.

                      We did this because when the car would be getting into torque, the driveshaft would slap right by our thighs. This was obviously the driveshaft moving more than it should at the csb.

                      Well when we went on the maiden voyage, the car still maintained the issue=( There are only two things I think it could be. Either the output shaft on the trans is garbage or one/some of the bolts attaching the diff to the subframe have become loose. Both of these are easy things to diagnose. I felt so bad having spent all day feeling that we had fixed the problem.

                      Anyways my build will resume Wednesday at the latest=D

                        If all the time and energy you spent drawing penises and micropolishing dust mites was focused to turning wrenches, you'd be out doing burnouts and picking up beezys.

                        FINISH IT ALREADY

                            Some people have airbags to save their face from getting mangled, you Earl, have airbags to save your front lip and oil pan from getting mangled.

                                      Had just enough time yesterday to stop and drop my rent off at the shop. I am hoping I get my ass in gear Saturday and get something decent done=)

                                          because logic.

                                          to be fair. he did do a shitload of awesome work
