What have you done to your MS3 today?

OMG.
Get rid of it...
not now...but right now.
 
Replaced cabin air filter and didn't seat a plug completely ...Now my car thinks the doors are always open. Effin great. If you are going to do it, you have to have herculian strength and midget body parts and you will be sideways or upside down in your car trying to reach back there. But I think it was worth it...I had leaves and all kinds of stuff sitting in there.I'll put pics of the old filters so you can see how dirty they were after 28000 miles.

For those who have installed the Hella Supertones:

Is there a nice guide anywhere for the install?

Did you have to remove the bumper?

How did you mount the horns? Did you drill holes or reuse some stock holes?

Thanks!
 
Dremeled my radiator housing???or whatever you call this thing at the top of where the hood lands. the little hose (1/4") that connects to the bov kept being destroyed as the engine buckles because it couldn't go anywhere else except right into it...

I dremeled it down first with a sander (blue square) and then smoothed it with the tool that isn't a buffer.

So now I have a smooth little tunnel for the hose to go through and it doesn't cut the hose up anymore.

Installed my Forge silver BPV, blue shim. Took measurements and whatnot to shave down the Intercooler cover so that the return tube to the CAI doesnt rub against it.
 
MUCH BETTER! Clear reflectors (on the side only.. the backs are still smoked) and clear side markers:
