I've got an eBay carbon fibre/chrome aluminum e-brake handle, but the chrome is peeling off in some spots so I figured I would just paint the metal parts. What's the best way to get the rest of the chrome off and get a good result painting the aluminum underneath? Sand it off? As for durability...

I have a Autometer LFG boost gauge, and the silicone liquid inside only comes up 3/4 of the way so it looks low. Do they come this way from the factory? Or can I fill it up some more? Where do I get this liquid silcone compound? I found nothing on the Autometer website or elsewhere.

I plan to get a blue and red colored reverse guage face kit from speedhut. Should I install white LED bulbs? Has anyone tried this combo? I'm hoping to have the blue text look like blue LED's, and keep the red constrast (i.e. redline) Also, to make the needles to glow red, could I custom...

I know these are many people's favorite wheel for the Mk3 and these wheels are so crazy, I thought I'd post pictures; even thouh they'd require major widebody mods to fit :evil2: They're on that auction site. 18x10.5J-3 and 18x13+10 114.3 5

According to the Silvania light bulb chart, the front turn signals are 1156 bulbs. What are the parking light bulbs beside them in the turn signal housing? The chart does not say, and my car's in the shop so I can't check it. Help?

How do I test/diagnose the ECU engine temp sensor? I can't find this in the online TSRM. Does it vary in resistance (ohms) according to temperature?

My Tein SS coilvers are too stiff for my liking, even on the softest shock setting. Tein USA says I can swap out the existing springs: 16kgf/mm(895lbs/in) front 9kgf/mm(504lbs/in) rear to this: 14kgf/mm(783lbs/in) front 7kgf/mm(391lbs/in) rear Any less would require re-valving the...

Cost: a few hundred bucks in parts, dozens and dozens of hours of research and tedious labor. All LED's except for the reverse are 70ma superflux LED's from future electronics. All circuits are regulated at 12 volts and the marker lights are dimmed with a PWM (pulse-width modulator) circuit...

I recently sprayed some contact cleaner into my driver's side window switch since the electrical contacts were intermittent. It fixed that, but now one of the plastic switches gets stuck when pushed. I tried lots of WD-40 but it made no difference. How can I lube this mechanism properly?

I was originally planning to try a full-bar LED design like this rendering: but as I've started putting it together, I'm liking the sleek look of just 4 thin horizontal bars going across the length of the tails. I'm really considering this easier design for both looks and time saved, but...

I recently changed from regular gear oil to Royal Purple synthetic grear oil in my diff and tranny, and it seems much notchier when shifting, as if the syncrhos are not working as well as before. The bottle said it contained an additive for LSD (limited slip differentials). Since these additives...

I've changed my interior to a dark grey and need my seat belts to match. Can I use the SEM flexible paint on these or not? I need to go from blue to dark grey. I've searched for used belts but this color is impossible to find. Thanks.

I used paper and a pencil to create a template for the mounting holes for the 89+ 3 piece spoiler. I figured the community could use the template so before I sold the templates, I scanned them into my home scanner and included a marking showing the scale in inches and mm's. They are in PDF...

Well after much research, I'm going to do this, and report my application progress and results. I'm looking at either the 8 or 16 lb foam from this site: http://www.shopmaninc.com/foam.html Check out the descriptions of the these densities: "8lb: This 8LB density foam is extremely hard and...

As some of you guys are thinking about retrofitting LED's into your tails, I thought I would share some of my findings and mistakes to save you the trouble. Tools you will need: An oven, tin foil and cookie sheet, leather gloves, putty knife, goo gone(to clean up any glue smudges on the lens...

I'm really liking the way clearcorners.com has done their LED conversion(pics below). Any ideas on the best way to go about building something like this? I haven't had much luck finding suitable parts other than here: http://www.custom-led.com/ I know the lens must be heated to dissasemble...

My Megan muffler has a very loud drone at cruising speeds and I'm considering a Borla muffler because it's the only brand I know of that uses stainless steel packing inside instead of fiberglass which always burns out and gets louder over time. The options are a bit limited for a 3" inlet and...
