Haven't done anything as of yet. Purchased a few things. New valve cover gasket set, redline mtf, bumper clips, and I'm sure something else is on that list.

I love my metra dash kit off ebay =). It keeps the stock flap thing(above the A/c controls) so I can hide my junk in there.

No problems at all installing. The only thing that bugged me was that the metra dash was not exactly flush with the rest of dash. It poked out a little bit. I solved it by mashing down on it and installing the HU from the outside-in to make it flush.

If mother nature ever stops PMSing, I can actually wash, clay and wax my car. It's been like a month since I've cleaned my car. I also need to Rain-X my glass again. That last application lasted a year. Lol.

Yeah i spent $8 at a do-it-yourself wash thing yesterday just because my car was dirty from like 5 minutes of rain we had a couple days ago ... and sure enough it rained today. Oh well, at least my car looked good for a couple hours xD

Oh snap. That reminds me. My Redline MTF came in the other day. And the weather looks pretty good for the weekend. I can finally wash my car.
I want your ****, Josh...no homo.

Bwahaha
I wasn't much into the ball shift ****, either, but the more and more I looked at it, the more I liked it. Doesn't get too hot either. I let it sit in the hot sun for a while, and it was about as hot as my steering wheel was.. Maybe a tad hotter, but nothing 5 minutes worth of driving wouldn't fix though

Who started this thread? LOL i didn't think it would get this popular...I swapped paint with an Audi at the Gym parking lot.. FML. should be an easy fix. Also installed cold air intake and came out to find that my coworkers had emptied an entire bag of shredded paper throughout my car. Not a good month... ragemode.gif lol
