Received these in the post today BWR lug nuts, a wiper delete and a blank key.



Finally got to fit my Rays!



She needs some serious lowering!



Shiny Car has been sitting too long, so the brake discs need to be brushed.

Got rid of the tow hook. I personally don't like them. Didn't have the right size socket, so used the lug wrench



Got the last wheel on. Still can't get the skirt off! The screw is apparently harder than the drill bit that I bought, specifically made to drill through metal :/



I love these wheels so much Car needs to be way way WAY lower. Any suggestions on how I should go about it? EK9 shocks with lowering springs, coilovers, etc.?

Finally got the skirt off! The screws wouldn't budge, so the heads were ground off. The skirt then had to be punched out.



This is what I'm left with... The other half of the screws cannot be removed. I suppose they'll be a great substitute for filler This side had WAY less s**t than the other. It'll be ok, once I sand it back and paint it



Should have some bits coming in this week. Gonna go buy some paint as well

Fitted my genuine wiper delete.





Tried cutting away what I can only describe as s**t, with a precision knife. Whoever thought this was a great idea, needs to be crucified...



Here's a closeup of the material. Can acetone really break this down?

New headlights



In the process of fitting them, I discovered the passenger-side bracket (Under the headlight), used for positioning the bumper, was mangled. Dunno how Inspected the area around it and no damage to the frame, thank God. The bumper isn't sitting right because of this, but its not that important, so I'll replace the bracket whenever.

it's called a bumper stay and stiffener if you are looking for a replacement.
