it isnt much. but ive been kind of down and out lately. i just got my euro plate today, so i had to toss it on.





i have a new valence and fogs sitting in my basement. gonna lamin-x the fogs and high beams. GC coilovers, brembo blanks with hawk pads this winter. then ill find some wheels and decent tires in the spring. i cant wait to get it to handle nicely.

but i got my finger chopped off with a log splitter last week, so ive been a bit out of it..
cant wait to get my hand back in working order.

i need some rear mudflaps to go with the fronts i have in my stockpile. prob getting a Z3 antenna soon. my stumpy pile of crap antenna isnt doing it for me.

That plate is cool shit. The log splitter thing, not so cool. Sorry to hear it.

Nice work! i still need to get mine on, havent come across a frame

[nando]

ouch, I was going to give you crap for not washing it - did they sew your finger back together or did you lose it?

+1, and how much finger?

[lucky7]

i took a pic of it today. i didnt realize it was missing till i got to the ER. so nope. didnt sew anything back on. going in for surgery tomorrow. sucks. my entire right hand will be out of comission for a while.

i has a pic, if its legal to post here. its pretty graphic..

[alpinaclone]

Where did you get the plate frame? I need one to throw one of my plates on a plastic bumper car.

its a universal frame. i couldnt get the bolts on it. so i ised 4 zip ties and the spacers that came with the kit. its not as flush as i'd like. but it looks better than i had imagined it would. its fairly stable too.
