be sure to post on how you like those tires, ive been thinking about them
I'll be doing the same thing this week...Less than 500 miles to go until I hit the 60,000 mile mark!
Eww...and I thought my 40k miles on my 08.5 was bad. Yeesh
BTW, buy PG's Towplate and let me know how it is. For $50, you can't go wrong, but I saw a few complaints about it (but I doubt them since PG is very good at providing high quality products, good prices, and customer service!)
I was just planning on fabricating the already existing tow piece the car comes with. It really has no other use after the initial traveling the car took by way of ship to keep it from moving around.
how does that hold up at 150mph?
haha haven't tested it at that speed. I have kept an eye on where the bolt is on the back for the license plate to see if a mark appears. I have taken it to 120mph and it hasn't had a mark or flew off.. You can force it to touch the bumper but it does take some force.
looks good, but why don't you just delete the bolt on the left?
The plate attaches only at the top, so it would probably flop down if it was only held on with just the right bolt.
I cut my tow hook and tapped it for a 1/4-20 screw and bent a piece of sheet metal (.200 thickness I believe) and drilled some holes and done. Now just need to replace the tow hook..
Since those pictures I took it off, cut off that corner that was exposed and painted it flat black so its not as noticeable.
Received the manifold for the car today, just waiting on turbo, waste gate and a few small parts to install. Also got a new block, piston and rods on the way. It's F'ing Xmas (drive2)
