lolNot quite today, but this week I shaved 1/8" off the bushings in the shifter for a stiffer feel (following the guide on the how-to section), and 35% tint all around.. Looks good on the black mica and I was surprised how much cooler the interior was after staying out in the heat, I knew it would help but the difference was even more than I was expecting

Replaced the tint on the front door windows today.
Went from 10% to 35%. Still looks pretty dark from the outside; but from the inside, I can totally feel the difference in how much sunlight comes through.
We'll see what the get pulled over factor is with this configuration.

Kain- Nice, I was thinking about those hydraulic hood supports. How was the install?
I have them on my NA3. I think it's one of the nicest, most practical mods I've done and would do it again.
No more putting the oil or washer fluid down to put the hood prop rod up.
I read the instructions over and over again for a week before I tried it, checking the instructions against the car.
What they don't tell you is to very carefully protect the painted surfaces around the area you are about to drill and rivet. Those rivets are really stiff (a good thing) and the drill comes very close to the hood as well, but no matter how careful I was w/it, the gun jumps when the rivet lets go so be VERY careful. And remember the broken off nail will have a sharp point to it also.
I used several layers of electrical tape on the edges of the fenders and the sides and back of the hood. That did the trick and saved my paint. And remember the measure twice-thrice/cut once theory. You don't want to screw it up. There are no second chances to get it right.

scot, i hope your daughter grows up to be a wiseass er i mean swampass like you, youre gona catch hell in about 14 years. I do feel sorry for your wife though, 400lbs before the baby weight then you and mini you will be tough on a girl.
We're both racing to the 7th. My wife might beat yours. I saw a head hanging out when she got up to wash my dishes. I popped back in before I could grab it.
Kuato was crossed out on my list of possible baby names. 400lbs? That was her fighting weight. She's up from that. Way up.

Make it so, No. 1. August 7th is my birthday, and having the planets align with my birthday and the emergence of your seed spawn would insure extra smarminess for eons to come...
... or tear a rift in the space/time continuum. Either way, it'll be a blast.

today I painted my break calipers red. It looks quite awesome.
I received my Beltronics RX65 Radar Detector today. Upon first use during my drive to work this morning it picked up one stationary cop sitting in the median using K-Band, one – your speed is sign and one false alarm at a grocery store.
