I've never seen fender mirrors on an FD. The curves of it make the mirrors look so different. Going by what your signature says, that must belong to your wife, right?

Yes it is her FD.

Finally put the headers on. I cut the first two cats out to get it in there and it is LOUD now. The performance increase is very noticeable.

How loud did it taking out the cat make it? And maybe performance wise? Looking to get a little bit more power out of mine when I bring it home, and the boyfriend wants it a little bit louder, haha.

It made it much louder. Putting on the header made a huge top end power increase. I got rid of two of the three cats and it got 30 percent louder.

I'm interested in the bronze wheel paint you mentioned. Be sure and throw up a picture when they are done.

I am making a Leather radio delete panel. The radio is heavy and the finish is cracking off. The edges will be hidden.
