Wheel Locks

A co worker warned me that her wheels were jacked. So I decide to protect my investment with some wheel locks.

Did someone mention Drag Radials

Bought some Z06 replica wheels- 18x10.5 with 53mm offset. I will have to zip tie the e-brake so it won't rub. 58 lb with MT ET Street Tires. Can't wait to hit the track.

Custom JacFab Driveshaft Tunnel Brace

I ordered this about a month ago and have finally found the time to put it on. I guess it was too much of a novelty to have it customized even if no one but me ever sees it. Installation was a easy - raise the car, 4 bolts on, remove brace and bolt on the new one. I need to order some more spacers though becasue my Flowmasters hang a little lower than the stock pipes. But a couple of washers will work for now until I order some more.

Install of Oracle Plasma P13W DRLs

I installed my Oracle P13W Plasma LED Bulbs this weekend. Since I wanted to make the DRLs come on at the same time as the headlights I needed to make my own adapter wires. (I didn't know to order the DRL adapter on the website)
Here are the tools I used. 

Screw Driver
Torx Driver T20
Electrical Tape
Pliers
Razor
 new replacement bulbs
Wire and T-Tap connectors - I crimped the green connectors on the ends of the wire to make a clean connection to the T-Taps.

Started by pulling back the Wheel well cover by unscrewing the oem screws with the Torx driver. I needed to turn the wheel to make room to pull back the cover. There is not allot of room to fit both arms in and you really need a work lamp to see inside.

I disconnected the original bulbs and attached the first T-Tap to the BLUE wire.Next I went after the Side marker lamps to tap into the power so the DRLs could come on with the headlights. IMPORTANT. the Driver side and Passenger side wires or different colors. The ones to tap into are Driver = Purple wire, Passenger side = Brown. To make life easier I popped out the side marker lights by depressing the clip with the screwdriver.

Next clamped on the next T-Tap with the pliers and used the new wire to connect the power source. Then installed the new bulbs. The Male/female connections are not perfect for the new bulbs. they fit snug but do not snap in. so I added electrical tape to just make sure they don't wiggle loose over time.





Results: Before and After. BIG DIFFERENCE - looks so awesome!

 

Mods - Plastic dip the wheels and added JACFAB Liscense plate holder

 So I got a warning for not having the front license plate on the car. I took it off for a week to clean some gunk off. So I bought a JacFab holder. Good construction and simple to put on. I was impressed that it stands away from the body and uses pre-existing  bolts for the bumper.I also tried my hand at using Plasticdip on the wheels. The wheels look a little dirty because of the rain.
