Wow! Grayson auto! Very close to my house! Love the Mysitc 2 door. My favorite!

I actually picked up the car in Kansas City. Flew out there and drove it home. I believe the PO bought it from Grayson but never took that mount off the license plate. It was my first "mod" besides taking the front plate mount off :)

and thanks :)

Nice.

I noticed that I'm missing the other HK speaker I ordered so I have to get that shipped out probably tomorrow. Looking forward to getting the car back so I can start doing some before/after shots of the part replacement haha
