Nothing to exciting but gave her a good wash. Threw some tire shine on and cleaned all the windows. Not bad for 13 yrs old its still a 10 footer but its my 10 footer lol

Changed plugs last night. Few of em were not the same plugs. 5 of them were one part number and other 3 were different. Also plug on front pass side was a pita. Also doing front one on drivers side i unplugged coolant temp sensor and the connector just fell apart so i got a new pigtail today and am wiring it in. Hard to believe that plug not being right has temp gauge not working, check gauges light on, and its extremely hard to start. Hope to have it fixed as soon as wife gets home so she can watch the kiddos for a little bit.

Re did my spare set of taillights little darker. Also swapped in led brake and parking bulbs. Also swapped my license plate bulbs to leds too. Next up is interior lights to leds. I already have brake, parking, reverse bulbs done and plate lights. I also have led low beam headlight bulbs too.

Nothing really new except i swapped my headlights out with the fresh ones I had intended to customize because that peelable tint does not hold up to much abuse. I also swapped my taillights back to my slightly smoked ones. The other ones are way to dark. They looked good but i dont want to get rearended.

Been a while since posting but yesterday i had my borla muffler removed and a piece of pipe put in place. Its sounds good and is not much louder in cabin then the borla proxs muffler. So happy i had it done and wouldnt go back. And cold start is amazing. This is the way a v8 should sound. Ill try and get a video up soon.
