Hmmm...I never really thought of that, but it's not something we would expect customers to do.
Send us an email and we may be able to work something out for you: contact@diodedynamics.com
That would be entirely up to our production team, but that's a good suggestion
A friend of mine from Kansas City will be sending us a brand new set of headlights for his Viper ACR

My Stang this week: Started feeling a vibration in the steering wheel at highway speeds, started worrying me big time. Don't know if anyone remembers, but I had a 2 1/2 year ordeal with steering wheel shake that I finally got to the bottom of back in November. Originally in summer 2011 had bad ball joints so I just swapped out the whole control arms for BMR units. Then the shake started coming back at high speeds. I tried everytihing there was left -- rebuilt strut mounts, replaced bushings, end links, tie rods, struts, wheels, etc. In the end it turned out to be a bad 'low friction' ball joints that BMR was using at the time in their control arms (they since started using another supplier). They sent me the new ball joints for free and I was shake free all the way until this past week.
On the off chance it was a wheel balance issue, I took it back to the shop and it turns out the weight pack hit the caliper and ripped open (the weights were basicaly flat tubes of steel shot that could dynamically balance --that company went out of business, BTW.) So they rebalanced the tires w/ traditional stick on weights and all good to go! Scare over
Other than that...I've got the infamous door panel peeling, so I've started sketching out ideas for custom leather inserts. If I can figure out something I might order from these guys:

I used it to do doughnuts in the school parking lot. I was later approached by a man who was impressed with the cars power, and was surprised when he learned it wasn't a GT. Made my day.

I drove it.
Once again reminded myself how much I hate the MT82 transmission and how much I can't wait to replace it with a T56

Barton with a Barton bracket, aftermarket custom-blended fluid, Whiteline trans bushing (sucks, can't wait to remove it at the next oil change), DSS driveshaft.
It clunks and bangs like crazy.
There is NO way to drive it quietly.
I drive the girlfriend's Shelby, quiet transmission/driveline.

With headers like that do your plug wires like melt ? Reason I as k is my son's 5.0 does so I bought him those socks to slip over the wire to help shield from all that heat

I'd just went with a plug & play JLT oil seperator or oil catch can , I was really getting no annoyed with the oil that gets up into the intake to gum up the throttle body.

With all the traffic and posts on here lately about oil catch cans, I'm surprised you still went with the jlt. The jlt, though better than having none at all, is the least performing catch can out of ALL catch can/separators out there. Sell it and get a bobs or Moroso.

I have the Moroso which has a two chamber or dual pass design and a larger collection capacity, 3.0 ounce for the small body and 5.0 ounce for the large body model. The Moroso is not the final word in the world of aftermarket separators, here's a closer look:

Did they improve on the mounting bracket yet? I remember being swayed away from that (aside from price) when I chose the Bobs.

Not yet, it still comes with the cheesy-raw finish stainless steel strut mounting bracket. If desired, it can be polished up to a nice shine for the bling crowd.

T56 for me also, some day…. But at around $7,000 installed out the door I may wait until the current MT82 dies or I just can’t stand it anymore.
