Today I finally managed to install my RX Catch Can. I think I connected the hoses the right way, I will find out once I start driving. It took me a little while to install since I did it at work but it was relatively easy, just a little hard to mount due to the huge bulky stock airbox.

I don't own any jack stands and I live in an apartment complex so it is kinda hard to work on my car in general lol.

So today my gill inserts from Emblem Pros came in and I wasted no time painting them black, originally chrome. I can't wait to install them and see how they are. Unfortunately the weather is crap and it is suppose to rain for the next week straight and not be warm at all. So in the mean time I will be patientlly waiting to install them. Here are some pics of them originally and after I painted them black.

Well today I decided to paint my tail light bezels. In the beginning I had so much trouble painting them because no matter how I positioned them the paint would run. But in the end I finally managed to paint them nice and evenly. Also today my rear truck blackout panel came today. Unfortunately by the time I was done painting my bezels it started to rain and I can't install these yet :( But here are some pictures to hold over until the weather cooperates.
