With a lot of help from friends, we installed the new Bilstein/RoW M030 suspension. Still need an alignment, but I'm very happy with the ride height!

I dropped by the local Cars and Coffee. Plenty of nice cars despite the rain clouds on the horizon. The highlight for me was this Speedster Carrera and its very original front plate:

With help from Pelican's DIY, replaced the rear felt seal on sunroof in an hour and didn't get contact cement on everything. Bonus was it worked when put back together and seal height was spot on. Thankfully the front one is GtG, looks like a pain.

if you did the back one like that, you'll be able to do the front one with your eyes closed. Welcome to the forum!

I had my A/C evaporator replaced this week on my C4S. Look closely at my service number on the rear view mirror. I took this as a good omen!



Starting to get interesting.


The culprit.


And I had good company in the shop. The Turbo had it's engine dropped and resealed.

Bought my wide-hipped lady (after all was Valentine's Day ) some goodies while she's covered from the elements. Small little items like a center console storage bin (replacing the fragile cassette holder), new Hella taillights (nothing wrong with stock ones but like to just give her a rejuvie), etc. Next is stripping down the factory stone guards, giving her a deep detail, and putting the new stone guards. (on that note, any feedback on the ones FDM sells?)

finally, after months of frustration and exasperation i finally got my rennline CF bypass to work on my 95. rennline even has a disclaimer that THEY don't recommend it for MY95 but i had to have it...and a friend said take it to sleepers in costa mesa. it frustrated them too, but they are pros and in a couple hours...the owner comes in and says
"i got it!" so we have 8 pounds off the rear of the car, looks beautiful, no warning or dash lights, heater works fine! win, win, win.

Replaced all (4) CV boots and repacked the joints. Plastic trim tool made short work for working the boot around the flange. The CV clamp crimping tool was another hassle free experience. Cleaning out the old grease and repacking....priceless. Good for another 60k miles
