Thanks Greg. It's too long. I did find an amp made for a boat that fits. I'm not an audio nut. Just good sound at moderate levels is fine for me.

Picked up wheels from Wheel Wizard. Before and after... I hope they don't make my front wheels look bad.. Might have to get them done too. I probably would have lived with the curb rash for a while, but one of the wheels was bent and tire sidewall was damaged (looks like the PO probably hit a pothole)

That looks really good. Did they refinish the inside / barrel of the wheel too?

How much did the refinishing cost? If you don't me asking. I have some light curb rash only on one of my wheels similar to yours.

$175 per wheel. refinishing includes straightening (or is that rounding?) So same price whether wheel is bent or not.

Nice Woodman! - I grew up in Novato - very familiar with that section of 101 and San Pedro Rd. What fun!

It was definitely a blast! The road is a bit rough in patches, but I didn't pass a single cyclist or deer. (Or cop!)

NEW SHOES!

Glad to be rid of the Sumitomo rears and Continental fronts. Michelin PS2 all around.

For the life of me, I just can't relate to people who buy one of the best performance cars ever built and then cheap out on tires. Arguably, some people may think Continentals are good, so I'll give a pass on those, but Sumitomo?

Looks like a great drive! Can I ask what program and OBD device you are using? I really like the graphics.

Hey guys - it is the OBD Fusion app (for iOS) and the reader is a
Veepeak Veepeak

It's pretty nifty.
