I have the same tuner lugs, just go to auto zone, and pick up a Impact hex key set.

They come in 3.

You will get a 12 ( the one you need) 15 and 17.

Above is what you are looking for. You will need a 1/2" inch ratchet and extension though.

nice drawing for the bumper... I hope you know that making a bumper req a hell of a lot of man hours to come up with one using that stuff u mentioned. and refining it ones you do have a proto of the bumper with the clay, then don't forget the fiberglassing of the mold ones it is done....


im going for the show and slow look
ignore the peeling of the paint in my pic
look so similar to mine, except I have a proper hood

Most modern cars have this feature to get the engine and the catalytic converter up to operating temperature.

How high do the rpms go and how long does it stay there? Are you running a stock tune? If its really cold outside that could cause it. Also if the heater/AC is on during the cold start that could be an issue. Mine peg up pretty high on a cold start but ita because I switched to speed density. But you can adjust all that thru the primer enrich tables.

Yes I'm running a stock tune it goes up to two then drops to one it's probably cause of the cold.
Question: I have to get my car inspected will SRS Catback exhaust throw any codes or will it make me fail emmisions ? Please let me know ASAP.
