in due time, in no rush.
still got plenty of other stuff to work on such as the AMP SUB setup.


wow you guys, totally forgot i even had the sub and amp due to how busy i've been with other projects away from car as well. Thanks for reminding me. I'll try to make some time to start on it next month.

 

Nice addition with the 2015 oem trunk spoiler. I been debating on getting it myself.

Did drill/install or just 3m method ?

 

Great build! Love how subtle those window visors look

no major updates yet.

Worked on removable magnet mount license plate for the front bumper.


The super strong magnets I'm using



it fits perfectly into the OEM plate holder mounting holes



Both pressed into place. License plate will hold them in place and do not even need to glue or tape them down.



Marked on back side of bumper where i will dremel through plastic so that the magnets sit on the actual grill plastic so the magnets will be stronger hold



dremeled through bumper, this part will never be seen that it was cut



Double sided taped and wrapped the magnets so they dont accidentally seperate



taped down



both sides done



Here is video of it working pretty well.

nice work bro

 

ahhhh! thats super sick!

 

ok...I may have to look into this

What kind of magnets are those?

 

Strong N52 Neodymium Magnets Rare Earth Round Disc Fridge Craft 20mm diameter fit perfectly into the Hole in the license plate bolt mount recessed portion.

used an assortment of thickness to fill up the hole and stacked them to give them even more strength.

Had to cut into the hidden part of the bumper so the magnets have more pull and be closer together. Initially had it just double sided taped to back of bumper but then the magnets had about 3 layers of plastic to magnetize through so it did not feel as strong.

planning to put foam on the back side of the plate mount so it wont scratch the grill up while "mounted"

 

sick ride man, and thats a genius idea, i'm assuming you only run those plates when parked for certain reasons?

 

i agree, thats a great idea!!!

and yes, san francisco is very strict. i once got a ticket on my honda for no front liscense plate while it was PARKED on the side of the road

 

thats pretty damn cool. where did you get those magnets from? i too live in cali and this would be really good for poping the plate back on when i need when i get out in the city lol
