Some tasty mods. I like the sub placement and head unit conversion.

Care to share more info on the charger port setup? What charger are you using?

Looks good. I noticed the snake is the wrong version for this car in the android display though...
Haha... I didn't even notice. I made that background without access to a computer, so that was the only transparent PNG I could find online. When I have access to Photoshop I'll look for the correct one :).

It's just a basic, standard $20 trickle charger from Amazon. I cut the wires from one side of the plug and extended the run directly to the battery with a 30-amp inline fuse. I then took a picture of the plug, scanned it into my 3D modeling program, and designed and 3D printed a honeycomb-shaped adapter base that fits inside the hole of the grill, and houses the trickle charger plug. I then also printed a cap for that base that covers the plug when I'm not using it.

Then I just used the other side of the plug from the charger as it came, and connect it to the base I printed whenever I want to charge it.

Here's a few more pics:

"They" have used other words to describe you as well. Hope the Sunday lunch plans work out, will be good to see you and the family.

Great idea. I need to start looking into 3D printers.

Interested in your transmission cooler set up and what pump you used since I am getting ready to do one on my 2015 gt350 tech pack

Awesome man thanks! Sounds pretty close to what I was thinking and the plumbing details are very helpful as well. I was thinking about buying the FP version then realized the lines and fittings are not going to work without modification for my application and the FP cooler itself is like $200 more than the CX version for basically the brackets. lol

Yeah, it's really not too bad. I'd recommend just getting a few extra random straight and right-angle AN adapters. Once your're in there, you'll find easier ways to do everything, and having some extra adapter options makes that a bit easier.

Can you show the brake light you added? Is it a mini spoiler?

Sure, here's a few more pics.

I just took my factory base spoiler, cut it, 3D-printed some end caps, then added an LED strip. Was intending for it to be on for just a few weeks, to cover the holes until I could get the deck lid re-painted. But oddly, I ended up kinda liking it, so haven't removed it yet.
