I have been busy the last couple of days
With the yard and work
And a few other things

I have not even had a chance to work on any of my cars
Or even to check the 06 out further
But I did order a new front bumper kit and grill with the fog lights
I am going to order a different hood for it
The original is messed up
Plastic dip on wheels , rear emblem, fog lights grill
This guy went to town with the black plastic dip

The leather restoration folks just finished the two bucket seats! Just fantastic! That's all I can say about their craftsmanship! Here is a before and an after of the same spot with the hole! Keep in mind that the seats are not dry. He matched the color perfectly with the rear seat. Can you see where the hole was?

Clarification about the "after" photo: I took that photo when they were about 50% done. It looks even better now. It should be ready to use in 1-3 hours because of the high humidity! I feel blessed...

Thank you, Snorky! Yes. The hole was the obvious worst spot but the entire seat now looks much better! Less than $500 for two seats!

Slightly revamped the fuel system. Stainless hardlines I bent and flared into quick disconnects so that dropping the tank at any time for whatever reason takes just a few minutes, along with the single twist-lock electrical connection. Shielded the lines due to a lot of heat soak already in that area from diff and exhaust nearby.

Going to start next mod(s) prep. Going to lift up the 95 GTS using the quick jack 7k and clean up/grind the areas required for welding in my tubular WMS sub frame kit. Going to farm out the welding as i am not yet ready to practice with my new welder. Good performance shop in town that is experienced. I am hoping it helps with the loss of control on second i experience on occassion but likely attributed to cold Nitto tires. Future plan is to get wider tires than 275 in the back.
So this mod is the reason whay my new interior parts, corbeau seats and carpet, seat belts and sound deadner are on hold. I am told the carpet could get melted during the welding process, and a second felliw is used for fire watch, lol.
So i will get to that Today i hope, and then have to wait up to 2 weeks for a spot at their shop using the drive on ramp hoist. I will get a few pics if i can. Meanwhile i can at least pull the carpet out and see how cooperative the seat bolts and seatbelt fasteners are. Danny

Loaded it on the trailer for my track weekend. First run with the newly installed Coyote swap. I intend on bringing it back the same way. Going to put my new heat extractor hood on when I get back and have my buddy paint it.

Finished up the entirety of the back-half fuel system. Twin Walbro 255lph pumps, quiet but able to supply all the fuel the car will ever need, inside a Fore billet hat. Heat-shielded as much as I could around the IRS exhaust area. Used stainless hardline to the greatest extent possible. Used quick disconnect dry-breaks so that the tank can be dropped without spilling a drop. A Injecor Dynamics / Bosch billet fuel filter housing makes filter changes a breeze especially where I chose to mount it (take that, Ford!). And the single twist-lock cable is just the tits.
