Today I took it to the carwash. Complete carwash... with Chasis and Engine wash.
Also, I changed the Air Filter.
The last Saturday I replaced the Oil Filter, and the Oil itself. I put ELF 10W-40 Oil.

First time replacement of rear brake shoes...for me and the car. About a 3 hour job, they definitely needed it. Front pads got replaced last week. Then gave it a good wash.

rain today, looks like car wash is in order. still trying to make the stupid thing go faster. im looking for heavy stuff to take out, and possibly buying a new driver seat to replace the oem rocking chair.

really? what happened. the side by the battery has tons of space, the other side you just pull up the PS fluid reservior and tons of space there too.
i cut off some big chunks of my front bumper plastic that were hanging down at the bottom due to an old accident where i hit a whole tire on the freeway back in 2003. looks pretty good after a few hrs with a dremel and removing the whole bumper. and i got rid of 1/2 lb plastic! lol.

Yea, but removing the bottom plastic might cause the water find a way up in the intake area.. I removed so much plastic in my CL-S and i never had problems...
Man that ****ing wire that holds the bulb steady.. I cant find no damn right position to put it in... I wasn't paying attention when i was taking it off...

oh no i left the black plastics there, i only cut parts of the painted bumper. and i left a piece in the middle so i can still use two clips to hold the buttom of the bumper on. there is an empty space but its not really a problem for water. next is replacing the pass side wheel well plastic that has a huge crack in it, again.
