I know right? Actually it's just the bezel that I kept fucking up. The projector part is super easy.

Bezel part? Elaborate.

Fuckup 1: Painted bezels black, ran out of paint, Walmart was out of the kind I used, so I had to buy a different kind. The two different paints caused the finish to look like shit.
Fuckup 2: Tried sanding the bezels so I could redo the paint, cracked the bezel in a pretty noticeable spot.
Fuckup 3: Bought replacement bezels from Marcelo, painted them with plastidip, ended up spraying too far away, causing it to get fuzzy.
I ended up saying fuck it all and had someone more qualified paint it.
Although I did just strip one of the projector nuts. I kept tightening it, but the projector could still rotate. I'm going to add a washer and then maybe put a small blob of JB weld on the nut and the housing so it can't rotate once I'm done. It's always something.

Just replaced the serpentine belt. Old one looked good still so that'll be my emergency spare.

Installed my new retros (OMG! So much light! lol) and installed my freshly painted wheels with the new rubber. They're so meaty. Pics this weekend when I clean the bitch.
