What have you done to your MSP today?

Headlight lens resto:If they are really bad then I'd wet sand them with 1000/1200, buff them with Meguairs Ultimate compound and then apply Meguair's Cleaner wax. If it's just mild oxidation then they will respond to a buffing with the cleaner wax, which is a blend of cleaners, polish and wax. You can get the compound, wax and pack of 3M sandpaper from Wal Mart. Mine were losing the coating so I sanded that off a while back. Now I just hit them up with the buffer and an 8" inch pad. I just bought a a 3" mini pad kit that will allow me to get in to the inside corners better. 323 - yours look good, especially for using a kit.

This is exactly the same thing I do. After buying one of those kits for it and having it fail in epic proportions, I do it the same way you do. The best part is once you do it once, the cleaner wax normally is all you need for their on out as long as you do it when it starts getting needed.
 
My radiator cracked, the factory one goes for $380. Is there anything elts that will fit that's cheaper than getting the factory one ....

do you still have a working SMIC or have you thought about going FMIC? the Mishimoto is $155ish but it's a full size rad. Other option is find one used in the FS section

so it started down pouring at my place. i look out and the water is at the bottom of my side skirts! i got out there asap and moved it. lol
 
damn nice. That valve cover will compliment that tower brace you have real nice. I want to do this conversion too and clean up the wiring a little bit
