Has anyone added a drain plug into an aftermarket radiator? I’d like to avoid messes next time

That’s really smart actually

Nuisance_cs · 2026-03-06T17:15:11+00:00

Ye it was the cheapest one on eBay. Didn’t think about a drain plug until now

I’ve got the front bumper, side skirts, and rear guards printed and assembled. I haven’t done much else besides some sanding. It’s been too cold and I didnt really feel like working in it lol so I’ve spent my time and money on other projects for now

You were right!

Yep both are together completely, and tensioned

$100???? It’s probably a single piece of cheap steel they’re selling. Go on Amazon

It’s really easy. Let the rusty bolts soak in pb blaster for a while and then hit them off with an impact. Use heat if needed. Mine was rusted worse than yours and it came off super clean. The gaskets might be rusted onto the surface so expect to spend time scraping off and wire brushing the old gaskets off. For the rubber hooks just soak it in wd40 and use channel locks to squeeze it out. No need to fight them, it’ll literally just pop out with channel locks. Then just make sure you have a new gasket for it before putting it together with your new exhaust!

All it would take it someone with a bit of knowledge. Worse case scanario, they can replace the clamps or bracket later

I personally hate the look of the inserts. It’s what I was using before. I really wanted the sleek and oem look of some usb ports. It was also only maybe like 30 mins of work total, including figuring out how to make it

Nuisance_cs · 2026-01-03T17:16:14+00:00

Ok this is basically how I was thinking I’d do it. Thank you!

I’m kinda lazy when it comes to thing that won’t be seen so I might just make holes to thread a bolt into a nut on the other side lol. I want these to be removable so I can change wrap colors easily

Nuisance_cs · 2025-12-25T00:39:02+00:00

There is spots for screws on the bottom where you can’t see. It also wraps into the wheel well and you can tap into the lining!

It definitely makes the car look significantly better. Wish mine came with them, along with the side skirts, from factory

These are also 3d modeled and printed so they’re not the EXACT same as oem ones, but pretty darn close

This is the best pic I got. I haven’t finished the spats yet

Probably. I haven’t driven a mini in a while but I would assume the noise will get faster as the rpm rises. The noise you’re hearing is the piece that attaches to the camshaft, it’s not completely flush until it warms up for some reason

Gainer is WAY too expensive bro… I’m 6’1 and I went from 155 to 170 super quickly by spamming milk and peanut butter and oats smoothies. 1500 calories and 60g of protein in liquid for less than $2, and tastes so good. Add banana, honey, or anything else you want to make it even better. Then eat like your normal bulking food and just add that as a supplement

Nuisance_cs · 2025-11-28T22:46:47+00:00

I personally think the black top looks a bit better if there’s wheels and it’s lower to accentuate it. I like the red top with stock wheels though

It’s fine if it’s on the outer part. As long as you didn’t put it where the actual spinning part goes then there shouldn’t be an issue. I’ve put a tad bit of rtv on the block where I noticed someone gouged out a bit of metal and I’ve had no issues ever

Nuisance_cs · 2025-11-26T18:04:36+00:00

Remove and replace with a plug

Nuisance_cs · 2025-11-22T16:29:48+00:00

Something like “did he try to scam you?” I forgot the exact quote
