Got what's left of the front wiring harness wrapped up. This is the part that goes into the engine bay along the driver's side.
It's not the prettiest but it holds everything together. |

I'm in the process of moving both cars over to a collector's insurance policy. This necessitates lots of pictures and this one of the engine bay as it stands today is worth sharing.

I want to do DGRR so badly but it's very unlikely this'll be done in time. I'm getting all the wiring done now and assuming everything works I'll still need to setup the display and tune the car before it's driving. Anyone wanna help? |

Been forever since an update. Took a break over the Winter but am now getting back into things. I should have the wiring harness done shortly. Then it's putting everything back together and setting up the display and ECU, which seem like daunting tasks.
Once the harness is assembly and back in I've thought about using the starter to turn the motor over and get some oil circulating around. As long as the ECU is disconnected and I remove the spark plugs is there any harm in doing this? |

One of our local guys dyed his grey carpet black successfully. He used a kiddie pool and a shitload of dye. It turned out really good. I'll see if I can get some more info for you.

I decided to put more trim in as a test. I don't know, maybe the two-toned look could work... I wasn't planning on putting the side carpet pieces in but after this I think I'm going to have to. I just need to find something to do with the tops where the speakers used to be. It wouldn't be hard to just make a lid out of something but a big part of me wants to cut the sides down so the rear damping can be adjusted without any trim removal.

You can use spray paint, some folks have used that as well. Myself, I would see if someone
has a black interior being parted out. Carpet is usually not that expensive when parting and its pretty easy to ship. I've seen dyed carpets and you can always tell even on the best jobs.

The problem is I have an S4. The only S4's with black interiors are the 10AE versions so interior parts go for big money. The S5 carpet is actually slightly different (narrower) because of the automatic seat belts. Aftermarket is an option but that will run me $200-250 and it'll come with the rubber and jute backing I don't want. |
