![]() Incidentally, as you can see I’ve used the inside of my trunk lid as a sort of sticker book, sporting decals from friends, events the car has gone to, and brands I’ve ordered from. I decided to first address the trunk lid as its hardware had not yet been replaced and not only did the main bolts still wear their factory white finish, they were also quite noticeably worn from removal and installation. I focused on blue and black washers but did add a couple of pink ones as well just to see what the colour was like in person, to judge for any future orders if I go further with the dress-up hardware on this car (“when”, is more like it). As you can probably guess I quite liked them, so during a sale I placed an order with Downstar for another batch, with various hardware for a few points in the car and washers in a few colours so I could play around a bit. Downstar is a name that of course needs no introduction, so when Reggie happened to be selling a small batch of extra bolts and washers from his collection late last year I picked them up as a way to “test” the pieces for not much money or time spent waiting for shipping. If you recall, in prior years I had replaced a lot of hardware throughout the car with new OEM pieces already, but there were a few places for which I had been thinking something fancier might be better suited. ![]() The more involved installs (not that there are too many set for this year) are due to begin soon given the approaching Driven deadline. ![]() In actuality, I’ve just been tinkering in the garage during some of our nicer days and tossing on a few of the quick, easy-to-fit parts that have been laying around as I get a few minutes here and there. ![]() As you can see, I’m on a roll with the involved, elaborate, in-your-face installs on the S15 so far this year. ![]()
