Tackling the tough jobs.
Replaced the rear wheel arch trim today.


Here’s a list of everything done to my car in the last 8 months:
IMS Solution
Clutch
Flywheel
Rear Main Seal
Air Oil Separator
Timing Chain Tensioners
Spark plugs
Coil packs
Fuel Injectors
Water pump
Low Temp Thermostat
Serpentine Belt, rollers and tensioner
Fuel Filter
Battery
Oil Change and all fluids flushed

So now I’m just waiting for spring to finally arrive

Those wheels look fantastic! I really like how gunmetal wheels look on the 40AE cars. I'll be paint matching my front lip soon.

Default PDR, beers, liquor and food

Got one of my friends 99 Aero, my car and two others for PDR. Was able to get work done on two of the 4 cars. To fix the rear driver quarter on both P cars, we either drill thru the back tail lamp or we need to be able to remove the inside back panel. We will work on that latter. Pretty good technician, so I believe I found who I’m constantly going to recommend for this type of work. Chow today was pork chops, Parmesan garlic mashed potatoes and good ole green beans casserole.

Sorry pictures was after I had served every one including my son.

Green beans casserole is always great almost all gone.

Mashed potatoes are always a hit, throw a bit of mayonnaise there and even if you can’t taste it , makes a big difference with the finished product.



The AERO had a bunch of issues on the frunk. Almost like they closed the hood with something inside there. Other issues where on the passenger side door.

My other friend was flying his drone. While I was blasting the Jams.

Glad you’ve got your priorities straight.
Exhaust first and spoiler Second.
That’s exactly what I would have done!

Believe cost will vary with color, standard black matte, gloss etc $175, but looks like they are doing a sale at $75. Believe he makes them in batches. Had a few months wait but well worth it.
