Did  quick search and didn't find this topic, so here we go.

 

Post your DIY/non-PC mod!

 

For example I recently got this knife which I did a couple small mods to in order to make the opening and closing a bit smoother.

 

I ground a sort of ramp along the path of the bearing using a dremel and then refined it a bit with some needle files.

I added a cold air intake to my car. That's non-pc, right?

Changed the front end on my SV to a GSXR front end. Changed the rear wheel to accept a 180 rear tire as well.

My mustang has a shit load of mods done to it.

I put a new head unit, amp and speakers in my Focus.
