You have a nice blank canvas. Cool graphics are in order. Maybe we can have a Dorki design contest.

Still needs a bit of work, hopefully this week:
  • Fix front bumper mounting to get rid of warp (visible in photo)
  • Install engine cover grill - parts in hand
  • Replace rear sway bar bracket clamps (and put the current ones back on the Targa...) - parts in hand
  • Replace bushings on one rear sway bar drop link
  • Loosen rear sway bars just a bit
  • Replace wear parts on shifter mechanism (ball cup, shift coupler) and replace gate tongue (Seine shifter mechanism) - parts ordered/will get from Fritz
  • Fix windshield washer
  • Install wide rear-view mirror better (currently zip-tied to stock mirror) - will probably do at track after I see how others have mounted theirs)

This should say remove windshield washer ( the tank can weigh like 10lbs with fluid in it )
