I like the Key & Peele skit with the detective who masturbates on scene to get further clues to solve the crime.

And yes, I thought it was hilarious. That scream the guy does made me lose it. lmao





They aren't classy like In Living Color or 80s/90s SNL - but it still is funny.

With the all black dash and interior, and the lack of "feelers" - I cant see or feel for the temp +/- button. So, I grabbed some rubberized grip tape and made my own.

It aint perty.. but it works.

Someone with some brass balls should do a stippling job on the buttons.

People have been doing that with plastic guns since plastic guns became a thing.

Tooting around some more with covering up the "RAPTOR" lettering using 1/8th ABS. I think it will work out nicely in the end once its all in place.

I plan to give the entire thing a light spray of herculiner to give it the factory crinkle look, then after letting the herculiner flash over immediately hit it with matte black.

I'll do the last fit and finish tomorrow. But it came out pretty decent for amateur hour in my garage.

Damn I got them sexy footz.

That’s looking good Jack (not your feet). Can’t wait to see what the finished grille looks like. ?

Kind of feel like the middle needs something maybe a small version of the Ford badge. I dunno.

Or an R3 logo, raised letters, maybe outlined like the Raptor lettering?
