I was waiting for someone to throw that out there.

The garage will get some attention in the next few years. At the moment, the house is taking all of my spare time.

My apologies for the revolting image...

I see some shiny mufflers on the (dirty!) shop floor. Super secret stuff.....hmmm. Must be time for the Tiptronic conversion, re-installation of the 16" wheels, engine tray etc.

Seeing your car's super-clean wheel wells makes mine look like I've been mud dragging!

You ain't seen nuthin' yet, Brother Moffat...

We're not worthy!

How much cleaner can you get? At this rate I'm going to start throwing buckets of mud/crap/garbage at my beater(s)!

It's actually pretty weathered under there. I aim to tackle this issue over the next few weeks.

I didn't know we could jack the front of the car in front of the spare tire wheel. Are you using any type of additional support (a 2x4 of some length) or just using your jack stand, placed so the 'pad' is in front of the spare tire well?
Thanks guys,

Chuck,
My normal method is to jack under the engine case, then set the rear stands under the proper points. Once the weight of the engine & tranny can pivot over the rear stands, I jack the front exactly how I stated. I do use a 2' length of 2x6 covered with a towel under the extreme front of the spare tire well. It lifts amazingly easy at this point.

Thanks Andreas. This will make it SO much easier. I somehow missed this tip over the years....

Saint Andreas...

Why are you not replacing motor mounts with the RS version and opting for the C4s ??

Geez... I have the desire for my car and garage to look like those, but even if I had the willpower to make it so, it'd only stay that way for 15 minutes.
