Thats a great and very easy mod.

Wrapped that mod up last night. Besides my inability to use crimp connectors (we go through this with any wiring project lol) she's all buttoned up.



yeah yeah yeah, I know the bulbs aren't the same color and the drivers side needs aimed. I'm just happy they're installed finally. :guitar3:

swapped my 01 grille for this clean 00 one. i like it better than having a black line through it, plus the chrome bars are wider. :biggrin2:

Took my valence off! added a Rad grill to protect it. Painted my grill to match and skid plate. Cost me very little $$

Finally got it back from the shop, cost the insurance company more as they had to clear the whole top and quarter in the other side. Then I had them paint the front flares on the bumper as the paint was gone, and some other flare bits. Maybe next year i'll just have the whole thing repainted.


 
Finally ordered a new front suspension setup to ditch the toast factory coils/3" revtek spacer that was only giving 1 3/4" lift.
New 5100's, extended top plate studs, and some 883's on the way From Wheeler's Offroad in order to compensate for the additional weight of the plate bumper that I'm building, and eventually the winch that I'll throw in it. Woot!
 
Kinda lame but I cleaned my fair share of diet cola stains from the PO (my Dr. Pepper was not the culprit here). Also found a nice collection of peanut shells/pieces, cheetos, and rotting coins :barf:



I need some "after" shots now.
 
changed the spark plugs for the first time since I've had this '98 t4r! I'm hoping this was contributing to my poor fuel efficiency... will fill up and see how it goes. Replaced with NGK Copper Core Spark Plug BKR5EKB-11 BKR5EKB11 (3967). (Also did an oil change today)

I used Oxiclean and a portable Bissell carpet cleaner. I'm no expert at carpet cleaning but I made some progress on them. I'll get some after shots if I get a chance tonight.
