Got a little snow here yesterday and they laid some salt down, so she won’t see the road until we get a good dose of rainfall. Picked up a trickle charger for the talon and the Jeep along with lug tool to replace the terminals on the jeep and this cool front emblem from @Paul@RTM. Shout out to Paul for letting me know it was going on sale in a few days so I can save a few bucks. Thanks Paul!! Here’s the link if anyone is interested.


Question is, do I have it powdercoated or leave it raw??? 🤔

Flat black background. Raised eagle in white.
Not sure how much work that would be but it would be original 👍. I was thinking just gloss black powder coat. Then sand down the raised area to polish it since it’s aluminum.
 
It’s very difficult to heel & toe on a 1g. I’ve gone through a few different sets of pedals on my previous cars. The momo set I had on my 2g was great. Easy to h&t, felt great and didn’t slip when it got wet. But sadly I can’t find them. I went el cheapo with this but at least I can h&t now.

I bet it's responding pretty well w all this cool weather. You can tell you have a lot of seat time 🤘🏼
Yeah she crab walks a bit LOL. Fun AF in this weather.
 
I really like that wheel, fits the interior well!
I think so too. It’s the 2nd closest to the evo 8 momo that I could find. The other one was $100 more but I didn’t like the finish it came in. Can’t wait to feel it on the road. It’s sleeting like MF here so it’s going to be a while
 
The seat were taking up room so I decided to install the p/s and throw the current one in the basement until o figure my seat situation. She was looking a little dry so condition the sh1t out of it. Not bad! Only if the drivers side was the same. I wanted to put the stock leather back on the d/s but it’s completely apart and I wasn’t sold on the covers my wife made. So my plan is put that one back together or get a d/s aftermarket seat. Entry level seats aren’t too expensive but I’ll have to do my homework when time comes.

She needed some love ❤️ 😝
