    Many thanks to saulbassfan for his help in attaining & installing my push-button overlay tonight. It was an exhaustive install that took 2 people and a solid 60 seconds.

    His Modelista inspired Prius is truly an #MPGstunna!! Thx Rob!! (y)

    Happy Thanksgiving! Past few days I was able to clean up the bolts from my project Weds Kranze ERM 3 piece wheels. The bolt heads will be powdercoated. I will be buying new nuts. [​IMG][​IMG]

    Had mom back her Toyota Highlander into the Prius while it was parked in my sister's driveway. :cry:

    Now I have a new rattle that seems to appear with the ICE coming on. :coffee:

    I spent about 5 minutes thinking you must be snooping the Exif meta data on my photos... and then I took another look at the pictures. :)

    Yes, a 3 minute $4 mod. I initially thought I was going to need to disassemble my dash and remove the dust cover on the instrument cluster. Nope. This film goes on the display which is reflected up from the slot in front.

    I took it for an evening drive a few minutes ago. I think the red is super neat! What is not super neat is that the unfiltered display on the right is relatively bright. It needs a smoke tink over there to get the luminosity levels more uniform.

    What brand of fuel do use the most? Maybe add a bottle of Techron every other month.

    went to visit @ncases today and picked up a few things he has no use for anymore... although the only thing I will use is the illuminated door sills, its nice the have extra parts laying around :D and yes, those are @sfv41901 sean's mirror covers. Will probably continue to use the CF hydrodipped ones for now. @SwamppThingg maybe you could use any of these?

    not quite yet. they're the only ones that fit these spare mirrors besides my hydrodipped ones. If @SwamppThingg wants these signal mirrors, I'll have to give him the CF ones and put the WGM ones on mine. Since the Blizzard covers are for non-signal versions.

    dont worry Rob, I have you in mind if plans change!

    Worked on one of the JDM Weds Sport Kranze Wheel lips with the worst damage. 2 gouges. Knocked them down wet sanding starting at 220 all the way up to 2000 grit. Took me a few passes hehe.

    1st Pass

    2nd Pass

    3rd Pass

    4th Pass

    Applied some Mother's polish to test it out hehe. Come to find out the lips are clear coated, so I will either sand all the lips down or use aircraft stripper bleh lol. To Be Continued!!!

    Cosco and Shell gas is what I generally use for gas. But will start using a bottle of Techron every other month (y)
