That was my plan.... but I am lazy and want my dad to help and he said to just get the fibreglass so I did

I think he is worried that they need to support huge loads or something, because the way he is talking I think we are going to end up with them being many times stronger than they were stock

today I ordered tein s tech lowering springs for my car.

There's just a screw on the backside of the mirror, tighten it and it's all good again.

Both of us will lol

But epoxy is stronger under constant loads compared with fibreglass (as far as I am aware)... the FG should still work though

If your headlights are suffering from constant force I think you have other issues at hand.

There will always be some form of force on the tabs... If they are broken once; then the weakness will still be there...
I am reinforcing mine with some metal washers to prevent it breaking again >.<

The issue is people not knowing how to ship, that or idiots thinking they've removed all of the bolts and trying to remove them. The force they experience on the car is minimal, unless you have giant angry plecostomus attacking them or wreck it.

Yay


And yeah, they aren't under much load... I would probably just used some 5 minute Araldite or something to stick them back on long enough just to take off the bumper personally


And Today I... had to wash this...



was much worse than it looks... and mud was caked under all the side skirts etc.

You silly Australian, cars are for tarmac.

Closer?

Note all the rocks in the wheels.... car may have entered that shot sideways

Step in the right direction. Speaking of such I slightly broke traction yesterday while taking a 90º turn, it was just enough for the tires to make an ever so delightful slight squeal. The car was still totally controllable even with breaking traction. This is the part where you expect me to say, "It all just clicked on what the car is about." That's where you'd be wrong. Just kidding, sorta. The more I've driven it spiritedly, in my own cautious manner, the more I've come to appreciate the car's merits. If only it had more oomph, though I keep contemplating the possibility of redoing the exhaust in hopes of somewhat remedying it. I don't see how it'd really help though aside from maybe improving gas mileage somewhat.

You only just "slightly broke traction".... you need a 1MZ and some more fun Even a GT would be quite sufficient I tried some lift off oversteer the other night in the rain at midnight when I was far too tired... I followed the perfect racing line through the roundabout, only I took my exit backwards

Yea you only need just over 1/4 throttle in town to have fun with a 1mz lol my breaks traction 6 times before I even start it up lol jk

It was a zero throttle turn in and broke traction, wouldn't matter what was powering it. I really don't see the point in the GT, it's only about a second faster to 60 and loses 5+ mpg. The only good thing about the GT is that it's more swap friendly. The 1MZ would make it ideal, but it doesn't solve the car being red. I really hate red. If the car was black, grey, teal, or blue I'd be more keen about it. Really wish it were black, then I could paint it whatever colour I want.

fix my broked pod

^^^^ WTF???

Can you hear Me Now? awesome tweeters....

Today I had a little piece of me die. I ended a ten year love affair and sold my baby.
I don"t really know what to feel but I know I will miss her, she led me here and I have made some life
long friends. Thanks 6GC for everything. I will still stop in from time to time.

Very sad to read
Will the new owner be joining the ranks of 6gc an do tmthey fully understand how good of a car they got?

Well, today the LEDs for the accent lights in my projector arrived I now have all the parts to start the install


So I got some Loctite 406 off my girlfriends father and started the repairs to the broken tab and damaged tab:



And finally the tab that was damaged:
