Merc6 Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 I plan to wire the STi I/C sprayer to the pull switch I threw in there to cover of the donor car's drilled out hole for the Sub Pinch Knob. I see there was a float for low fluid, was that a light in the dash for the STi?

MrTris Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Did mine gold, and, you can see SOME of it. If you're gonna do it, might as well do them now. I'm also not entirely sure, but, I think with a die grinder and a polish wheel, you can get 'em shined up with a brushed look -- might be kinda cool. The finish would probably last longer than paint.

Merc6 Posted February 11, 2015 Author Share Posted February 11, 2015 I'm probably not even gonna attempt it. I barely go to car shows so it would be like me getting a $500 tattoo on my ass no one would see. Debating on if the seal is easy to swap or just pay a body shop to do. Gotta go back for paint touch up from when they did my trunk anyways. 2005 Satin White Pearl Subaru Legacy 2.5 GT Unlimited 5EAT (Project Car) 2019 Agate Black Ford Explorer XLT 4WD (DD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merc6 Posted July 28, 2015 Author Share Posted July 28, 2015 Just had a quick "F*** IT" moment. How hard is it to sell a 05 LGT Shell and all the parts listed above? I don't think I'll ever finish this build and not willing to deal with a 3 year part out.

Merc6 Posted September 13, 2015 Author Share Posted September 13, 2015 Lamin-X tinted tails came in yesterday, when weather breaks I will install them. Looked under and I got some more work to do.

JmP6889928 Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Leave the valve covers alone, you can't see them any way's. I painted a lot of the parts on my build and you can see a lot of them. The valve covers are visible in the car and the paint will help keep them from corroding as quickly, not to mention it personalizes your car a bit.

JmP6889928 Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 I paint stuff because I hate corroded looking parts, even if they're clean, so I would rather take a few minutes to make sure it looks nice at least when I assemble and install.
