So with the basket extension, it was then too long for my snowboard to fit into the racks lol.

So I installed a add on Yak bar a few spots forward from the back. Now the board fits fine. And of course... just like last time... mid-way through working on the basket set-up, it starts raining lol!!

Also figured while the bumper was off, I could take care of something else too.
The front "wiglets" on the grill are a silvery/chrome and not really to my liking. I believe Canada has a black piece of trim you can buy to replace it, but why not use more of the left over vinyl ive got!

before and after

I wanted to keep up with doing these kinds of projects for my ride, but the -10C weather has taken away such motivation.

Yea I get that lol.

Sitting on the cold garage floor was not exciting and I almost didnt start because of that lol.

But since the woman is out of town (her SUV is normally parked in the garage with the STi) I figured it was the best chance to start last night and hopefully finish tonight after work.
