there's a little grommet plug behind the battery and to the right in the engine bay on the firewall... use that.

nice paint job quality wise, i would've chosen a different color, but but no means is that meant to be discouraging... very nice car!

that looks unreal I like it a lot IMO, it'll look much better with the front lip and maybe a rear lip because of the hard transitions from the front to the side skirts then from the side skirts to the rear.

you said you did all the work yourself, what exactly did you do the body work and prep, the paint, or literally all of it.
