That's a WagonMafia decal.

Mine didn't ship for like 2 weeks so I emailed some guy on the website and he shipped them out same day.

I thought you had to write something on someone elses ms3 window to "earn" that sticker
Technically you're supposed to. I did it the right way and "earned" mine, but you can just go to that website and order one, they won't ask questions.

OEM rubber bushings have too much play and make the shifter feel sloppy. Aftermarket bushings are made out of some sort of metal, like aluminum, which doesn't give out like rubber.
I wasn't aware there was a problem with stock.
not necessarily a problem, as in faulty. Their function of securing the shifter assembly to the tunnel is done much better by solid base bushings. There is zero play/slop/rubbery feel in my shifter now. Just nice, solid, tight, secure shifts. It's night and day. Honestly, it should've been one of the first things I did to this car. Even if you don't get a STS, I'd highly recommend solid base bushings. It's easy as hell to install either.

so...my finals are finally finished and I can dedicate more time to get my build finished. upon taking the old motor apart, I found ANOTHER issue that needs to be addressed. two of the intake valves are bent so I have to replace them. this car is going to be the death of me. hopefully i can get the new valves and be able to finish her up in the next week or so, enough where she is running. then the tune immediately following. i can see the finish line...i just have to stop and tie my shoe lol

Detailed mine today, just a great feeling! I used Meguiars Yellow wax. This stuff makes a black car shine amazingly! Oil change in near future.

Today, I warshed and waxed her. Was I used was thee turtle wax back to black....pain in the ass, but did the job
Then, as I finished the last little buff, the sun dissappeared and the clouds got real thick. After I was completely sure it would not rain, it damn near did. Just a couple little spitting drops, but it ******* figures doesn't it
Actually, the worst part was the wind, because it just blew pollen back on the car. So the nice "wet" look of the black went away with the pollen
Mother nature is a dirty *****

Same damn thing happened to me yesterday. Finished, went outside to drive to work and it starts raining, just a few drops. Work is about 4 miles from my house, it's still just spitting, but as I get closer to work, it evidently rained harder because the streets were soaked! Threw up great black spots all over the side of my clean car! I was livid. I went inside filled a bucket and rinsed it on the spot.
