Haha...you're the one who got me started down this dark path with your XKR grille thread, but since you asked:
1) Rear spring lowering kit
2) Continue to pursue drive train buzz (possible resolution next week)
3) repair center arm rest
I still have the hood with the louver cutouts. Would you like it? Yours for the shipping cost. I should have a box for it by next week.

Nice job though.......

It is sort of a never ending story isn't it!

Hello Jeff here. You seem to be a helpful chap and knowledgble and I was wondering if you'd mind sending me a few pics that you put on here but they won't open, maybe been removed? I'm going to install the mesh louvers from Mina Gallery and just like to see your pics after you cut your hood to install. Appreciate it if you get a chance. Thanks in advance, Jeff.

You can email to 1foochie1@gmail.com if you prefer. Thks again for any info/help. One car guy to another

Hi I Know this thread is old but I was wondering if you ever put the vents in your hood?
