I really would love to design up and 3d print some sort of hinge arrangement for that passenger side light.  be cool as if it tilted down at the flick of a switch when you wanted nice cool air

Battery operated. Via my Milwaukee impact drill.

Nah I reckon something like an electric window motor/lever, flick of a switch from the drivers seat.

Been a while since updates been pretty busy atm with my other ventures and builds and god knows what else i get up to haha but scored myself a caprice grille im not big on going down the same path as everyone else but there really isnt any grilles bar the csv ones that i like on statos and csv is rare as hell id love a full csv kit. So also being i hate chrome grill is at work and going to be getting a coat of high gloss black being how premium this grill is i copped it from the die hard stato guys who dont belive in anything other than gmax heritage wheels and the car dragging ass with the nose up :p. Also finally getting around to some of the smaller jobs ive been meaning to get done fuel rail posts made up and throttle elbow is now bolted down properly

Awesome progress mate, its looking super clean and the turbo install is tidy as. keep the updates flowing as progress continues. Its some motivation for me to get back into my build which is somewhat similar in comparison.
