So after an absence in the garage. after freaking back surgery, Good weather. Went back and revised what was missing for this badboy to run.

Love those floor mats, wish I could find a set. The 7th gen seats and the door sills work well with the interior. Very nice

Shaved looks a lot better in my opinion, but JDM fenders are a nice touch regardless! thumbsup.gif

A cap that's flat and is knobbed like a water spicket would work, I think that's how the one on the 7A was. Perhaps it or another like it would have the right threading.

Could try one off a 5s as well. It's not nearly as tall as that.

Worst case scenario, get some hood spacers where the hood bolts to the hinges and bump that b!tch up hahaha
can you tell me what didn't fit with the FRS seats? They just wouldn't fit in place because of the shoulders?

i would require 1 inch spacers, which would make the hood sit so high, its ridiculous.....

extensive welding required, and modification, the angle of the seat cushion is not right.
