Removed my aftermarket Airbox and installed a factory unit instead with Mahle paper filter.



If anyone wants a FS aftermarket air intake just PM me.

Changed out my rusted lug bolts. Using my car all winter makes it a real challenge to change over to the summer rubber, with the lugs as rusty as mine got. AS

I put anti-seize (moly) grease/lube on the threads. Torque consistent and easy to remove. Prevents galling of the threads too.

My wheels are on and off between street and track tires at least 5 times a month.

Installed the popular eBay faux carbon fiber wrap on the interior door sills. Less for cosmetics and more for protection from wife and daughter shoe damage.

Nice color! Fortunately that all looks fixable and nothing permanent.

Agreed. I love that Polar! (I'm assuming but I think i'm right judging by the blueish tint). Are those rotiforms? What ever they are look great. What color interior?

Chris it's all fixable but its annoying because I made sure to let them know it's low and they assured me it's no problem, we will see.
Al yes it's Polar, looks great in person, interior looks to be metro blue but I have not confirmed it The wheels are custom made 3 piece rotiforms. The previous owner had these custom made 8.5/11.5. Nice big lip on the rear.
The stock navigation has to go so I need to start looking for a head unit that fills the space w/out breaking the bank.

You should definitely try to get the shipper to pay for a new lip and a touchup under that bumper. Polar on Metropol is amazing. You can def tell if it looks a little more nave than black. Does it? Anyways, I also love those roti's.

Congrats again, AL

Yeah Al looks more blueish inside then black, I like it. I will take Roti's off and get exact offsets and give them a good cleaning.
