Trying to find a ghetto fix for this so any input would be great

have any pictures of the cap or the area it caps?

the OE RAYS Wheels on the Black edition / Spec V are very very similar to the TE's.
If I can find another full set of early black edition wheels, I will run a square rear wheel set up on that wheel for street use (the silver lip version, late versions are full super dark mag blue)
As for the spare fronts... maybe ill find a later model Stagea and mount the four fronts on a stagea.

it is the cap circled in red. the oem headlight caps don't fit the aftermarket headlight so I have oem cap 3m taped for now but I'm sure water is getting in since the ballast cuts out sometimes

A bit ghetto, but maybe take it to Home Depot and hit the plumbing aisle and see if you can find something that fits? https://www.homedepot.ca/product/pro...p-3/1000450728
Or maybe just go a bit nuts with some exterior silicone or RTV and seal the stock one on really well.

Look up "headlight dust caps" on Amazon, eBay or Retrofit parts sites. They have them specifically for people hacking up the OE assemblies but I'm sure you could find something as a replacement you'll just need to get some measurements.

For example this listing has a lot of various sizes, just need to measure the diameter and a rubber cap should work pretty well

Did the backroads near Sooke (Otter point road etc) and stopped by some decent trails along the way.
As soon as I came home, the battery died. Thankfully it waited to get home to die. Easy fix.
Found this cool structure and story to go with it:

Fb has bandwidth limits. If you share to too many places and too many ppl load them they become temporary unavailable

aero enough there's minimal noise on highway, but i haven't tested the fuel efficiency yet on long drives
in the city fuely says approx 5% penalty
the aero shape means free windshield wash after it rains lol
slight rear sag on stock part (also incline in the photo) but i haven't perfectly centered the tent and didn't install the new springs that can load 440lbs of gear comfortably
