My goal is to never turn my windshield wipers on.

Correct - Picture below gives the correct Speed Bleeder screws for the Crossfire Model Range. SRT-6's & NA's have different bleeder screws for the front - the rears are the same.

That was the concept car, only one produced.

Has anyone produced an after market moulding that you know of?

I like the look. Though someone may have developed a moulding that works.

You could probably make one cutting a narrow piece chrome stick on trim using 3m double sided emblem tape https://orangealuminum.com/round-edg...CABEgITBfD_BwE

Stuck on the inside or it will ruin your wipers. I think it was a parked windshield wiper anyway.

I believe the engineers who built the concept car didn't conceive rain on the car. No concept of rain since it doesn't rain in the world of concept cars. He he he...

Looks to me that you could remove the Crossfire front grille & paint it Flat Back. It would be pretty close to the one on the Crossfire Concept car (see below). It would also match somewhat better the 2 grilles mounted below in the front bumper. (Note: I think this is a good option for Crossfires painted in one of the lighter shades. I've got a Machine Gray car & I don't think a black grille would look all that great - IMO.)



There were probably several versions of the front grille on the Chrysler Concept; you just have to decide on which one you want to copy. The one below looks just like the production car.

Here's one of the better billet grilles (IMO) from UTV Products. And it comes in a black version.

Yesterday, I replaced the drive belt, belt tensioner, belt tensioner damper (not found on automatic cars).
The pics are from a post I put on facebook to help those who don't have much experience working on cars.
I also put in new floor mats today.

My AutoCraft Gold battery from Advance Auto finally died after 8.5 years of use. I replaced it with an EverStart Platinum AGM battery from Walmart.

my factory grill was painted flat black before I bought it. I'd like to take it out and redo it.

New windshield today!
I will finally be able to see at night without the halos and glare!
The Safelite tech was relieved that I had removed the windshield trim and the cowl (I was cleaning the drains anyway).
He was a good tech. He said he had studied how to remove the trim last night because he knew that the Crossfire clips were a pain. LOL

Is there a tutorial? My windshield has been buffed with polish and a rotary oscillating buffer. Talk about swirls.

Mind telling us how much to set aside for this upgrade?

Those type dont... but if you have your stock mats you can rob them of the buttons and modify the new ones. Or buy a set of hold down clips and modify them mats.
$8 for set on Ebay MB part # Q6680520

Cheers!
