Replaced the windshield washer pump. Broke the nozzle…because of course!! Replacements are $6 from Pelican….bought 2. Otherwise straightforward job. Make sure you have a 🪣 handy.

Oh, and forgot the $904 for tires in my service total in earlier post…so grand total? $3,887.01 Yikes.

But runs beautifully and the new shock mounts/bearings transformed the front end. Highly recommended service item.

Can you tell me more about the difference in sound quality?
Also was there anything else that needed to be purchased? Rings or Adapters?
I see you used a couple of different screws to mount them?

Thanks
looks great! Great job!

Good Job!

Did you apply clearcoat over it after polishing?
Or did you use another protection?

Picked my car up from the local Indy today. I took it in for front wheel bearing noise. After they went over the car, they replaced front wheel bearings, front struts, strut mounts, bump stops, dust covers, bearings w/ housing, and installed new rear axle boots (clean and regrease). A lot of work but it drives much better and quieter. I will probably go back soon for the rear shocks and related hardware.

Got the rears Ohlins done. Need to bleed brakes while I’m at it before I move to the front.

Recently refinished my RUF 997 R Kompressor brake caliper all four corners, paint was slightly chipping. Now it looks minty.
