Great pics Ronin. Those are the best ones I've seen so far of the Pierce bars. I looked long and hard before finally pulling the trigger on the 6 point.

Today I cut out the blocked off ends of the lower grill for the intercooler. It helped a little - talking purely about looks.

The whole piece pops out so I just left it off. I want to cut off the vertical pieces from the bumper but I also don't want to hack up my car (too much) just yet. Maybe once I hit at least 5k miles lol

Innovative placement for the tow hooks, if that's the purpose of those. [thumb]
You are correct, it's for towing. I haven't had to use them yet thankfully but I saw others from the forum doing this awhile back. I also have two 10' recovery straps and a yoke to make a harness in case I need to tow the car backwards.

also installed the GFB DV+ (wow what a pain to access those little bolts. I found dropping the little plastic splash guard over the accessory belt helped. Front passenger wheel coming off is a must.
I did not remove anything in the way when I installed my GFB DV+ (did it totally from under the car), so imagine the PIA that was, even with flex extensions, and u-joint adapters. [:(]

I was doing it with a little 5mm Allen wrench like you'd find in an Ikea box so I had to get my hands in there ha

BlackVue DR650S-2CH dual cameras and a CP-E Maptap Boost Source to finally get my vent-mounted boost gauge working.

I will warn you now as I have warned others....be aware and constantly monitor the drilled portion of these rotors as they start to crack from the inside out over time. Just slotted Rotors last longer than drilled and slotted due to having more surface area to dissapate heat. Getting cryoed rotors may help with the cracking over time. Ask me how I know about this cracking....good luck and really monitor your rotors![emoji106]

Had a small boost leak, had some lose clamps, fixed that and installed the velossa tech big mouth.

Either my boost leak was worse than I realized or the big mouth makes that much of a difference cause the car feels great now.

Thanks. I run these rotors on my truck that does some towing without issues. I will monitor the rotors closely. Since it seems we need new rotors every time we do brake pads i was willing to chance it.

Has anyone with cracked rotors brought up the issues with powerstop? If you use their pads and brakes they have a 30K warranty that includes cracking. I don't see how they wouldn't honor the warranty unless you were running crazy brake pads or something.

Adjusted both the seat height and steering wheel reach for the first time.

Surprised that I didn't discover this sooner, the seat was almost in its highest position

Got an updated sibling for the garage yesterday. Traded the wife's '13 Mazda CX-5 GT for a '17 GT!
