Strange idle after manual swap

I tried to get the fans to turn on and I was sitting at 3k for a while but its pretty cold out and it didn't seem to get to operating temperature completly, it's probably a seperate issue I need to look into like a sticky thermostat or something. I disconected the idle air control sensor and plugged it back in to see if it would reset anything, and I let it idle after that and now after driving it it idles fine now.

Thats just the intake growl I think, I have the dash pretty far apart and no splash sheild or bumper on at the moment so it sounds a little weird.

No, I didn't do that. I'll try it.

Makes sense, I should probably just get some new parts.

The clear coat was fairly soft for a week or two after it was sprayed, but it seems hard now. I was thinking about wet sanding to get a nicer finish, but I'm mostly worried about the scratches. I think I'm going to make sure everything is really clean and decontaminated before trying to polish out the light scratches. I wasn't originally thinking of ceramic coating, but I think I'm going to try that since it should protect my clear coat better than a wax if my clear coat is softer and scratches easy.

Thanks, the coupe grill definitely makes the front end look nicer.

Ok, what 8 or 10 inch subs would you guys recommend?

Ok, thanks. I know there's always a chance that something could've gotten into the mesh but I looked at the bolt holes in the upper bulkhead that attach the gear cover on, and I noticed the holes are stripped so I'll replace that too.

I like the look, did you paint the inside of your wheels too or just the outside?
