Default rear wiper delete
just finished it today, I bought a "plug button assortment" from Advance that came with a 1" chrome button (couldn't get it by itself or in a different finish) and painted it with black primer a couple days ago, then today I pulled the motor out, found a screw the perfect size to plug the hose for the squirter, stuck the plug in and then ran a thick bead of black silicone around the edge and covered it all up with a huge handful of plumbers cement, so hopefully I won't have any leaks





I also started painting the mirrors I got from WolferJ and managed to completely mess them up so I'll have to sand them down and try it again later

while I had the spray paint out I went and did some more painting to my spark plug cover that I think came out pretty cool

I'm amused with the spark plug cover. Lowe's and Home Depot sell nylon plugs...I got one from Lowe's when I went and took out my wiper and antenna after getting my spoiler installed. It really cleans up the rear end.

I was also thinking about getting some black, red, and yellow spray paint and painting a waving flag or something on my hood since it's white...like a blank canvas. lol.

closest Home Depot to me is around an hour long round trip, don't know of any Lowe's

I considered doing the antennae delete but I think I'm just going to get a stubby instead

I just tied the hose in a knot. But since the motor is disconnected, the computer already knows not to shoot out water from the rear even if you press the paddle. And I got my 1" rubber (which is really plastic ) plug from a hardware store. And they only came in black.

You have a full picture of the rear? Post it up!

Go to crutchfield.com and get a universal antenna. I completely got rid of my antenna and box but haven't got a chance to get one. I want to mount it in the area of the sunroof controls.

As long at it's not monstrous, I don't seen many bad choices...assuming you are gonna put a spoiler on.

ACS 3-piece, probably a rep but I'd love to find an authentic one

ISO is a little high, what kind of camera are you using? I think you should sand (paint?) the lettering on the cover to make it stand out. I did that with my M20 when I painted the cover black. Really makes a difference.
