Good to know mate. I bumped your post last week.
I will mount the feet this weekend for sure guys. I have had tons of school work lately so no updates.
Looking great man! Finish the thing up already :P
I know I know. 10 month is a long time on a project. It's getting close though.
Well guess what guys??? UPDATE TIME!!!
I finally got my case feet mounted so here are some pics.
First I masked off the area and marked the holes for drilling:
Holes drilled:
After that it was a simple matter of cutting the mounting bolts down to size and then mounting the completed feet:
Time for the money shots:
Yes it does look awesome (applause lol) but there are still a few problems with them. The feet cover up some rivet holes so I will have to counter sink a hole under some spots on the feet to allow the rivet to fit.
Example:
You can see in the pic the rivet hole in the center of the green part of the spacer.
Another problem (which I already knew about) are the spacers themselves. Yes they did bring the height of the case closer to stock height but they are still about 2-3mm too short.
Example:
You can see the difference in the image above.
I am thinking of adding 1 or 2 washers in between the mesh and the handle (foot) to add the desired height (I think this may look quite good). The other option in cutting the difference off the front fascia itself which I don't want to do.
Well that's all I have for now. I have got a small order which is almost complete for me to pick up which will allow me to finish mounting the radiator. Until then...
Happy Modding.
