What have you done to your P5 today?

im used to it, i have the same problem with my stock size tires! lol my front left always looks a lil low but its not, and right now i have 195/50/16s which is no where near low pro
front always looks a little low because of the weight of the motor.

our stock door speakers are not that bad. well up front that is. the rear speakers are horrible. but i have 2 12" MA audio subs, which at only 700 rms total, itll make you get outta my car thinking your ears are bleeding lol. its loud, but the design of the car really helps with acoustics. ill be droppin in blaupunkt 3 way coaxial door speakers, 2 mirror mounted tweeters, and a new headunit. and lets not forget lots and lots of dynamat :D lol
I would love to Dynamat! Yeah, Im running 600RMS to my JLW7. I love my components! They kick ass! Never happy with stockers!

oh yeah, i dont want to really get a system yet, weight issue, probability of it getting stolen, stuff like that really turns me off, im happy with the stock stuff, even a stock sub if it will work lol
it should sound pretty good then. If youre happy with that, this will only improve it! Plus how can you go wrong for just paying shipping? You gonna check out if you got the plug or do you want tit regardless?

Finally had Sears replace 1 of my Pirelli snows that crapped out just before Xmas. They had to order it. Nice to have 4 snows again but with the weather I am wondering if I should put the summers back on!!

Exactly the reason I went with All Season, and the fact I don't do that much driving.

Heh...for those who have not seen a stripped P5.

Well....I didn't do that. That was scary & cool at the same time tho. Bet the results are rewarding too, did do that to my truck some time back & it was major improvement in noise reduction as well as insulation for heat/AC. Last night all I did was replace my much griped about Sylvania(Can you say OSRAM?) Silverstars after 2 1/2 years of flawless service. Yes, check the package they say made in Germany & OSRAM in small print on it. The bulbs even have OSRAM on the bottom of them so not sure what's better about one than the other(55w 4000k), as has been discussed in other threads, when they are basically the same except the ones that come in an OSRAM package probably cost more than $37.00 for the pair.

A ton of work, but very rewarding in ride quality. The next owner will be highly surprised. (wink wink)

GL with convincing those two people. I can save you a lot of trouble in the swapping dept.....just remove your stuff and send it to me! haha If I was closer I would be more than willing to lend a hand.

You know I'm game for garage meets. No Kia! Seriously...nothing but issues with that car. Plus you have all the P5 knowledge so if something need fixing she's good to go.
 
I am debating putting the summer wheels back on.... I have had the snows on since mid november. We have had 12" of snow on dec 2., and about 6inches of rain since... no salt on the roads, and its like 50 degrees here....
 
I still haven't put my winter tires on yet....Its been nice here too.

Went to the post office to pick up all of our accumulated mail. My Rockblocker fog light covers were there! :)

Also, bought OEM fog lights for the MPV. $90 shipped with the installation kit, which I think is everything I need to install them! :D
