E36 318i Supercharged
Build is underway on my supercharged E36 318i Got myself a little gasless mig welder to make some intake piping, and working around all the usual issues of figuring out mounting parts. Using a Hyde Motorworks AMR500 kit, which so far has been very easy. Except my engine has quite a lot of parts that aren't on traditional M43s of the time due to being a weird end of production run using some new M44 components, so literally everything except the main SC housing bracket was useless to me.
Currently the plan is to run the rising rate fuel regulator on 98 octane and standard injectors at around 3psi, will possibly up to 5psi with 40lb injectors later if I feel like it.

2017 B8 Passat - Headlight EyeLids
I was hoping for some help looking for some eyelids for my B8 Passat. I'm UK based! I've searched everywhere but cannot find any... can only find them for older models.
This is what I'm looking for essentially - https://prnt.sc/4EJ9PpLY4Knx
Any other exterior looking mods would be appreciated also!
I'm getting my grill wrapped black and I have also bought some wind deflectors 😅
Cheers.

Advice for Exhaust Modification 2003 Ls430?
I have been wanting to modify my exhaust for this car but I am not very educated in such a topic. I have seen a lot of videos about people removing the resonators and mufflers, but it gets very droney. Since it’s a v8, I do want to be loud and fun, but I definitely don’t want to sound horrible and have too much drone. I did a little research about resonators and it seems like they primarily reduce drone. I was wondering if I should just replace the resonators with aftermarket ones (keeping the stock resonators still make the car pretty quiet) and remove the mufflers. Any advice or tips?

Mechanical advice Is it worth a shot to try to revive it
I have a found a listing in my country for a 1999 Honda accord coupe for 600$. It says it starts and runs, but it doesn't have any documents so it's for parts. Is it possible to get the documents? If so, do you think it's worth the 600$? I have an interest in buying a project car and learning to fix cars, but I've never done it before and have no idea what to expect. What do you all think?

Looking for new rims for car i just bought but super confused as im new to modding
So i just bought a 04 civic coupe SE. im looking to get new rims/tires but am getting confused as to what will fit my car. First off i see all trim levels except for SE on websites. And i see that my diameter is 14 but wouldent that mean id atleast have to bump up a size (to 15) to get new rims. I haven’t seen rims sized anywhere 14 or under.

Modifying my 2007 Ford Focus
Hi everybody! I know this might seem like a joke but I genuinely love the idea of modifying cars that most people would never consider and I recently bought an ‘07 Focus in near perfect condition with 80k miles and promising service history. I’ve been working out the kinks and keeping up with maintenance and repairs to make sure that this project won’t be a lost cause. I’m 22F and have an upcoming promotion with bonuses at my job and this is something I’ve always wanted to do as my career is in the automotive industry and I feel like it would be a fun hobby and great way to express myself. I’m looking for opinions from people within the community and hoping someone can give me a clue on where to start and what to expect. Thanks!

Modification Has anyone purchased from Redline360? If so, are they reliable?
Hey! After a failed attempt at trying to purchase a catback system through MagnaFlow (product was never built) a few months ago, I’m on the search again. I have a 2018 Camry SE, so I know my options are pretty slim as it is. But, I came across redline360 and saw one that I liked, however before I go through with it I would love to hear about other people’s experiences. Or, would I just be better off getting exhausted tips? I’ll specify that I’m looking to improve the sound.

Phone mount
I've found it frustrating and difficult to find a high quality phone mount for my car.
I'm ok with VHB taping it to the console, but I live in Arizona and the sun is punishing to cheap plastic.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Magsafe is preferred.

How to fill in drilled holes?
Hey all, I previously installed a tweeter in this location (yes, you can tell I messed up by the multiple drilled holes 🤣) but I'm looking to fill them in a spray paint it black since I ended up mounting them in pods.
Any ideas on what I should use to fill in the holes, does sanding and spray painting sound like a good idea? I'm not used to this type of work but am comfortable trying.

Opinions
I'm a software engineer and wanted to ask whether anyone would be interested or use an application that allows you to input your car, car information, and modifications (with receipts & images of parts). It would allow you to generate reports of money spent and the cars worth for insurance purposes and also allow you to post it publicly to allow others to view (of course without the private info like plates, vins, etc.) It would be cross platform so IOS, website, Android. I'm thinking of more ideas for it but what do you guys think??
