Now that's what I call clean!

 

haha ya i always go over board when i wash my car... but i love it!!!

 

I'm not the person you asked, but I want to get a hitch for mine (and a small trailer) to make trips to Home Depot or Lowe's a little less challenging.... Plus, out here in the frying pan, you see lots of deals on Craig's List for free hot tubs (that you have to go pick up) that I keep missing out on because I don't have a friend with a truck or trailer....

IIRC, the MINI hitch is good for a 1400 lb. trailer with 200 lb. of tongue weight.

Bought it.

 

Congrats!

Sounds like a great time! I want to put some more miles on before I add the rear sway bar, so I can get the full effect of the difference. Same goes with most other mods as well.

All I did yesterday was lower my tire pressure. Dealer left the rockflats with 42 psi...I suppose I should have checked earlier.

 

Bath time

 

My CAI is in!!! Don't ask me how I was able to squeeze that in on Mother's Day.

 

That looks good! How do you like it??

 

Bought a wind deflector for it.

Tore apart the rear of the car in an attempt to install a trailer hitch. It was a prototype that I got to be one of the guinea pigs for. Unfortunately the hitch didn't quite work and needs a little redesigning but on the bright side I learned how to take apart the rear bumper and rear bumper cover.

 

That is sooo AWESOME !!! Love those trailers!!!

 

It sounds great, but I haven't gotten it out of the driveway yet to really see.

 

Had the exterior detailed and cleaned the interior myself Sunday. Also dropped it off late at my mechanic's facility to have NM cat back and ssk , and EBC Red Stuff brake pads and WMW SS lines installed today and tomorrow.

 

Banged on my door frantically while toggling the window down switch, hoping the window would roll down, so I wouldn't have to crawl out of my passenger door to take a parking pass at the parking garage while a line of cars waited behind me. =]

 

OMG, that reeeelly sucks

 

Putting on a NM air charge pipe (cold side) right now. It came a day early, WOOT! Changed the blue pipe to flat black and blacking out the logos. Stealth is the word, LoL!

 

I drove mine home from the dealer for the first time!

 

Congrats!!

 

You may want to try just closing the door hard while hitting the toggle switch, works everytime for me when mine sticks

 

I started to de-blackout all of the stuff I plasti-dipped. I had done all the interior chrome stuff, and it was starting to look really cheap and shitty, so I peeled it off today. It was fun while it lasted! I removed the outer plasti-dip stuff as well: I had all the chrome trim, but it was looking awful. I left the grille slats black and the fog light rings, but everything else is back to chrome.

 

I just swapped a *Let's Motor* checkered badge on my A panel with a *Power Switch White* badge from Original Wraps. Haven't decided if I want to do both sides or not.

Wonder why Original Wraps didn't call it *White Power Switch*?

 

The big brown truck just dropped these off. Install tomorrow AM followed immediately by a road test and then to the alignment shop. YIPPEE!!

 

Niiiiice!

 

Nothing, yet... But I did just order a B&M short shift kit. )
