Pic wasn’t working in last post. Fixed it. Also got first prototype for TA vent pod. Going to be tricky to get it to not spin around, but I have something in mind.




Also ran a scat pack challenger last night, not sure what he had done other than exhaust. He pulled up next to me revving and he honked it off. Did like a 65 roll and I had him by a car at 100. I guess he wasn’t happy because he hastily took the next exit lol

Nice kill, I got a WS6 roller on a trade. It has some body damage on the passenger side but should make for a decent project car one day lol.

In a good spot with this TA vent pod. Clips in securely and doesn’t rotate thanks to this bar I added. Installs from the front

Nothing new with the car recently. Killed another loud scat pack challenger. Went from 65, 55, and 45. Had him by a car+ every time.




Some pics

Successful day at the junkyard!

used a harbor freight windshield removal tool and sawed off this sail panel off a 96. Took maybe an hour total with breaks but once we got the wire hot it was moving. Deciding if I should DIY paint like my mirrors or take it somewhere. Not in a huge rush.

also found these ttop rubber trims in good shape on the same car. I’m going to model them and try my hand at printing some in TPU for whoever

Still on the lookout for a new steering wheel

You should have said something!!!! About a month ago I sold off my factory wheel it was mint.

Still have the airbag piece though.

Good find on the junkyard roof. That's gonna be on my shortlist mine is looking pitiful. The magg part is so expensive too

Only sold a couple and they never sent back any installed pics. I’d send you one for cheap if you wanna test it out and send some pics

First round of printing/testing for the trim pieces. Fit is good, but I think I'm going to meet in the middle on thickness of these 2 pieces.

Fresh paint on the daily! Clear coat on the 4Runners hood has been quickly deteriorating. It was looking bad bad. Was lucky to find a body shop that could squeeze me in and had me in and out in a few days 👌

New steering wheel! OG one was thrashed and sun damaged real bad. Picked up this Camaro wheel. Didn’t realize until recently the camaro wheels were a little thicker and had ribbing.

also working on a driver side vent for camaros. First attempt looking good. Need to make a couple changes then will have a working piece
