Had a funny moment today when I realized something had fallen off my car so I had my bodyshop order me a replacement part

This particular part of the engine "hood" got scratched pretty badly when I installed my Cusco strut bar and I had also broken off one of the clips. It must have fallen off on the ride home yesterday


Replacement part


Installed

Thanks! I had to ditch the original backing, but with the use of longer screws and washers I was able to get it in a good location.

Looks awesome! I think I have 10W too haha.
And I've had my fair share of those.. but I always use a flat screwdriver to help take the clips out now, much easier.

Oh also I wanted to ask where you got the wood grain overlay for the steering wheel? I'm not sure it fits with my style but it still intrigued me.

That damn thing kept popping out, I broke a clip on it and it didn't stay. It was my own fault!

I will PM you the info for the OEM parts and aftermarket parts too
