Not sure those chrome slats will take a good nuking in a gas grill. They might sag too much.

mmm...grilling season

LOL love the grill confusion

As far as blacking the grill on the MC; that would be me

I will keep your extra chrome slats in mind, in case I butcher the blackout job!

Crashton, I bought a kenmore last year and really like it, but I whole-heartedly agree... Whoever designs the parts and directions for grill construction should be drug to the street and shot (paintballs only though

)

Buy new tires.

Just put them on the mini van now need them for MINI! Hopefully new rims as well

Motor, Motor, Motor!!!!

Today, the new brakes got installed

I cleaned the rims and worked on bring back the black plastic.
Yesterday, Wellzy started to detail process, I don't think the previous owner ever waxed the car. He spend a great deal of time and a great deal more is needed.
Talked to the vinyl guy last night and I am trying to determine what I want on Ziggy. Hopefully, I can decide and get it completed before MOTD. If not I am sure I will get numerous ideas there.

I also did some spring cleanup this past weekend...

New Powerslot rotors, Hawk HP+ pads, and fresh ATE Superblue fluid. Along with touching up the paint job on my calipers...feel free to bash on my Brembo decals; you're probably just jealous you don't have them ;-)

And I installed some ultravioloet LED interior lighting...As well as UV license plate bulbs...For some reason my camera makes the purple light appear as blue; not sure why. And thanks Matt for giving me the heads up on the best lighting route.

And I took off my front bumper, clay barred the entire car, touched-up the 100 or so tiny rock chips, then sealed 'er down with 2 coats of Prima Epic.

New to the whole 'detailing' thing...That Prima Epic stuff sounds pretty nice! Is the price similar to others or is it 'epic' as well?
