Changed the cabin filter, swapped glovebox light to LED, fixed the rubber door trim on the driver door that came loose and fixed the LED in the rear map light that stopped working. Accomplished all of this while working from home yesterday :-)

 

Took my car to Magic Mike's Garage to get detailed. Getting it ready for tomorrow's NGC's cookout meet woooo

 

Looking good there!!

I may start on my headlights this weekend. I wouldn't think twice about it if the bumper removal wasn't so painful...

 

You will soon find out removing the bumper is the easiest part.

 

With the help from a fellow member here (ZahyMatar). We got the Hotchkis Sway Bars installed. Ran into alittle issue with the stupid Exhaust Clamp screw but other than that it went smooth.

I must say they definitely do make a difference on my X.

Today get a new exhaust clamp and install it

Tomorrow install new M35 Shift **** and Black Shift boot to match.

 

that's exactly what I was getting at... So easy to get it off, but a PIA putting it back on!

 

This...






Miro Type 398 (9.5x18 ET34) on Conti Xtreme Contact DWS 255/45R18. Funny story; the store I ordered the DWs never put the order to their warehouse and just confirmed my appointment. When I got there, they realized their error. To make it up to me (I was quite annoyed and about to take my business elsewhere), they gave me the DWS at the same price as the DW, mounted them and Road Force balanced for free. I guess I saved like $200 on "more" tire.

 

Nope, Nope, still missed it! Removing/Re-installing the bumper is the easy part, lol.

 

Now, now, I see!
However, I'm more comfortable with the headlight work.

 

Yeah, I can remove my bumper now in about 15 minutes, the headlights are another story

 

Not bad if you don't mind running All Seasons, but if you were wanting the summer grip I'd be a bit disappointed. Looking good though!

 

needed more meat in the rear...offset on the old wheels didn't allow for anything larger than a 255 so I sold them last week..
installed new ones yesterday with 275s rear and gave her a wash..
actually liked the aggressive old set better now that these are on.. oh well

 

Replaced the 4" round tips on my Borla Boomer mufflers:



with these ebay oval tips:



because the shape more closely matches the cutouts of the Autokits-X rear diffuser:

 

Meh, I just wanted a reasonably good and within my budget tire.

 

Installed roof spoiler and changes out grey shift boot and **** to Black boot and M35 ****. Probably going to look into making it a bit lower if possible. All came out looking good.
