Its vinyl and some padding included. When I get to point in the writeup doing
assembly you will see that when the cover is reversed.

Received goodies in the mail today! Got my 4 bbl 750CFM throttle body, complete with TPS, fuel rail with 4 injectors and fuel pressure regulator. This goes nicely with the RB 4 port 13B intake manifold that I got last week. My EFI upgrade is underway!

What surprised me was that the plastic wrapper for the motor was like brand-new! even the OE elastic band used to hold it on was perfect.

I finally got over backing off on my turbo build and going NA. There's nothing like a few shiny new parts to help you feel better!

I installed a racing beat front sway bar with new links and poly bushings, new rotors, bearings, calipers, steel braided lines, five way adjustable shocks & struts, and racing beat springs. I can't wait to get my baby on the track...
Shiny things

Went to the junkyard to get the pedal assembly to convert my buddys S3 auto to stick, i found this cargo area cover, not sure if this is is for FB or FC but definitely fits the FB like a glove. For $12.99, i bought it and will bring to my buddys upholstery shop to get it redone. I just need to fabricare an L-bracket to attached the long panel rod to the seat belt mounts or something. Here are the pix.
Good find, there - I've never seen one. The one for FC is hard enough to find...

Finally got the newly covered seats in the car and finished the write up on the RB upholstery installation.
Now getting ready for B3R here in NC in less than 2 weeks. Have to fix some squealing brake
pads and find a tin rattle back by the muffler somewhere.

Took my SE to my local muffler guy because I knew the 3rd Cat had a crack in it. When they got it off, found out the 1st and 2nd cat where completely empty - Totally shot. So now they have to order both of those Cats (they had the 3rd one in stock). This is gonna be big $ 
I'm kinda amazed the car passed smog last year in this condition! Only good thing is my original rear muffler is still in great shape.
With the car on the rack, I could see a small oil leak from somewhere that runs along the floor pan and drips out even with the front doors. Rear Main seal? If so, cheaper to just keep putting in oil LOL

Drove it!
Weather is so nice here I have been driving it every day.
Running great, although contemplating putting in a lighter oil. 20w50 GTX is in it now, and its almost time for an oil change anyway. I picked up some 10w30 after doing a bit of reading. I think it is a better idea as it starts to get colder here.
