Nothing major planned for interior... Maybe I could dip the radio bezel a dark blue to sorta match the fabric on my Recaros, or maybe wrap some stuff in CF vinyl...

Really? Birthday drop springs? Sweet, lol...

There are still things to do(like figure out the intake) but at least I'm not pulling my hair out...

In a slightly more serious note, I've been working on the fog light openings... I've made blocker panels from an extra floor mat(looks better than it sounds), but I'm trying to get them to stay on the car... I get up to 45 or so, and they come loose... Thankfully, I haven't lost one yet, I don't have any more mats to cut up... I hate both the thought of resorting to tape and the thought of making holes in my bumper and using zip ties... The original lower grille is there, but with the fog portions cut off... Why would one do that?

___________
EDIT:

Below is an example of me trying to be helpful and funny at the same time, accomplishing neither, and jamming Bones into a corner by telling him what he "can't" do with his ride.

Not my place, inappropriate, and, well, just plain STUPID.

Usually I'm just inappropriate and stupid. Sometimes my passion overrides common sense.

Sorry, Bones.

I will not have you representin the flock in a floormat flappin ziptied redline. Just ain't gonna go down that way. I will get you a birthday fog lamp delete lower grille (stock or aftermarket solid--your choice). The nutjob that owned it before you either put fog lights below the orig lower grill and cut it off for clearance, or just hated the look. If it came with the stock fog lights installed, I'd say the latter. If it came without the stock foglights, I'd say the former. The stock lower grille is a single piece of rigid material all the way from end to end so there is no issue of wind sneaking thru the holes---there are no holes. Hence why you cannot find bezels to fill the holes for the factory fog lamp lower grille version. I don't think they exist.

Put the drill down.....slowly back away from the car towards the sound of my voice....

Hey, it's all good, I won't complain about you wanting to get me a stock lower grille(you'll have to find my b-day yourself though )As for the floor mats, they look better than one would imagine(I cut them perfectly symmetrical and even and the pattern lines up from side to side) but I promise, there will be no drilling and no visible zip ties on the car, because I agree with the spirit of your original post... I will try not to do anything to my car that looks dumb...
