Beautiful lighting on that shot. What a great garage. Do you have a normal daily driver when you want to make a Costco run or go incognito?

Not quite 2000 miles (1600) but I did the oil and filter change this weekend with some friends so that I'll be set for my 3000+ mile road trip from NYC to the Atlanta PEC in 2 weeks.

Also zipped tied the rear brake ducts to prevent unexpected removal over uneven roads. They are held on by very flimsy clips. Maybe it was as designed to breakaway to prevent bending of suspension components but I'll take the chance. Make this change at your own risk.

Pete- Do you have the front brake ducts zip tied, as well, or just the rear?

Just the rear. If you get the car up on a lift you'll see why.

The fronts are designed like deflectors, imagine holding you hand out the window vertically directing air into the cabin. Any scrape on the bottom edge will just be that, a scrape. I've see the front air deflectors knocked off on other cars but you need a pretty bad hit to do that.

On the rear, these are scoops with the openings facing the front. Imagine a clam shell with the opening facing the front. Any scrape on the bottom of the clam in the direction of travel will rip the bottom half off. The two halfs are held together with flimsy clips.

Hope that makes sense.
