I got screwed !!!!
Well, not really
A few days ago, I replace the black torx screw on the headlight bezel with SS screws that a lot of owners are putting on the doors, engine bay and rear trunk. Like so
Well, it didn't look finished at all, so here's what I did to spruce it up a little bit, I applied some of the finishing washer and now it looks done
But why stop there, gotten a little screw crazy so I did this, just to finish off the engine compartment
So I was putting gas and notice something missing from this
to this
I know this ain't those thousand dollar mod that some do and it's not gonna add any more hp/tq. But for $25 total including the trunk,door and engine compartment. subtle mods my friends, subtle mods...........
