@Roadrunner_GTI , any recommendation for the oil cooler - model and radiator placement? Ty

I ran a Setrab 19 row, you can buy on Amazon here. I paired it with a Mocal thermostatic oil filter sandwich plate and -10AN braided lines. Another option is the iAbed oil cooler adapter plate, which replaces the factory oil cooler and I think is a cleaner install. It also doesn’t require you to run a different oil filter. The downside is that it requires you to remove the intake manifold to install it.

Figured after 10 years it was time for a front end refresh. Osram Xenarcs, eBay fog light grills, deAutoLED switchback fog lights, and a euro switch w/trigger wire to enable parking lights.

So far no light out indicators, and I’m still fine tuning the height adjustment. Overall the cut off lines on these Osrams is phenomenal.

Made the 8hr drive down to Tail of the Dragon this week and had an absolute blast. Put 1500 miles on the car over the course of the trip and it never missed a beat.
