The most important kill switches you can install are Power supply cut-off and fuel cut-off
in case of accident you kill both switches for fire/explosion prevention

and there is nothing wrong with having a push start button with a manual transmission car Wink

Oh ok, that makes sense..Yeah you're right, im just used to seeing everyone with Auto 3 series lol.

Anyone know how to block the letters from getting painted without getting a sticker when painting calipers ?
I wanna leave the letters the color they are, but i want to paint the caliper a dif color

Overlay the letters with painters tape, place the tape over the lettering, then cut out the excess tape from around the letters
thats if you have time and patience ...hahaha
Once you do that, spray the calipers with your color pref paint, let the paint dry, then remove the tape from over the letters.

These days companies make both caliper paint kits, spray and brush....spray will look cleaner IMO
just don't over spray everywhere.......and try not to cake on too many layers of paint.

When I started doing calipers as a young'n , I had to use thick paint and a brush
up close you could see lil brush marks and imperfections, but from a regular standing distance, it was nice enough

^yeah i already watched that video, watched a few other ones too.. just wondered about how to cover the letters.

Im guessing the easiest way is to put the tape on and use a blade or something sharp to cut on the edges right ?

Ya, you can tape over the letters, use a blade to cut the excess tape, or you can paint over everything
without masking any of the letters off and once the caliper is dry, use a q-tip and paint remover
and clean out inside the letters..........

Depending on how big the crack is and where its located on the sub....
but usually its not worth repairing, it's actually prob cheaper to buy a new sub.

"Use some extra thick CA glue /Crazy glue.

I've repaired my speakers with this exact stuff. Works great.

Let it set for awhile as this thick stuff isn't like normal crazy glue."

^ that's basically pretty much it, there could be some welding involved, so be careful of extra things you may need to do
