Thanks for all the compliments!! Installed pics should be coming in a week.

I sent PMs to everyone interested in where I got the fasteners from. They arent a sponsor and wasnt sure if I should post it or not.

A few shots of everything installed. Sorry it took so long, I completely forgot to post em up. Sorry for the distracting blue rag and bright green filter, Im polishing the lid at the moment!


I really like how it turned out. Clean and custom without overdoing it.

I agree 100%. I tried to dye it black but it didnt work. I thought about painting it black but worried that removing the connector and general cleaning etc the paint would possibly flake. Ran out of time and just put em on like this for now. Easy enough to change if I get the motivation.
