Well hello again!
It has been a number of years...... life happened. But I am back (in large part thanks to Luke who helped me get back into my old account! I think it had been since 2014 when I made my last post on one of the other threads here.
But, life sort of derailed (years back... 2014/2015).. and I had to have my partner whom I'd been engaged to.. arrested. Life went into a tailspin, lost our house, and I went from a 1200 square foot home with a 2.5 car garage and a near-2000 square foot shop out back... to a 700 square foot apartment with no storage. So yeah, plans on Bumbles changed a lot.
About the only things I got done over the past years was new wheels.. steering wheel spokes got painted aluminum inserts (since the steering wheel was from a Ford Focus, this was easy), and that's about it. But I just purchased a portion of the center upper dash so that I can start making some other mods I've wanted for a while.
Soon to be had in the future, painted rings around my vents, custom inserts for the document pocket, and possibly a hinged / magnetic lid for the pocket itself but we'll see about that one!
I'm also going to disassemble a vent and do my best to 3D model a new vent ring out of clear frosted pla so that I can put rgb lights behind them.
I've wanted light-up rings ever since the first 'Ford Transit Connect Family One Concept' came to the U.S. back in 2009 (before we officially got the neutered version of the van).
