What have you done to your P5 today?

cleaned my interior in preperation for saturdays meet =)

basically vacummed and steam cleaned the mats

dash and panels got wiped down with murphys oil soap cut with heavily cut with water. maybe about a 1/20th soap to water

then tried out Megs natural shine protectant. which to my surpise was really nice. left a nice natural clean glossy look w/o being greasy, or being grossly shiney like armor all.

engine bay got wiped down. sprayed it with black magic engine cleaner, let it sit (engine was warm) after 15 minutes, got out some terry cloth towels, dampened with some water from a spray bottle and went to wiping down. i dont like to hose down the engine bay with direct water.

Oy! (chair)

Finally got to install my rails/racks! About a year ago my brother removed, well I should say broke them hoping to make the car look better. But what he forgot to do was put those black strips in place of the rails. So, water was getting into the headliner. I finally got the chance to pick these babies up from Crazy D. I personally like the look of them, over the smooth look with the black strips. :) Thanks Crazy D! Now I just need the Moonroof wind deflector. :D

Here's a better shot with the sun all the way up before calipers painted. I'll have to take one during the day for an after shot :p

And I painted my calipers silver. :) Yea, my hands were dirty when putting the wheels back on. I only put 3 coats. Hopefully its enough. :D

I like the silver calipers. Cleaner and classier looking than the stock dull, without being ricey. Bravo!
 
1/8 Mile track today! Best I could manage was a 9.98 @ 76 mph. I really need to learn how to launch better.
 
Does anyone know if these rims would fit my 03' P5? Or will a 17x7 wheel size with an offset lower than +45 not work? Please let me know ASAP for I would like to order these soon.

Model: ADR S-07R

Size: 17x7

Bolt Pattern: 5x100/5x114.3

Offset: +40

Thanks, Dan

Offset seems too low. Even with 205/40 series tires (which are really small) I would be willing to bet they'd rub. I'd look for something with an offset +45 mm and higher.

I think +42 is the lowest you can go and only with 205/40
 
I finally cut off the old and installed my new swaybar endlinks. Feels so much different.

So now, Illuminas on stock springs w/AWR front endlinks.

HS here i come! :D
 
19's Baby!!

I managed to stuff 19x8 Axis S7ven's w/45 offset 215/35/zr19 FAlkens on my P5!! It looks great!! i have only seen one other p5 with 19's would love to see more!! I only had to modify by rolling the rear fenders!! no rubbing now!
 
Was feeling ambitious late tonight/early this morning and descided to finally install my SU front engine mount. Glad I did cause this is what I found:

And that was way easier than I thought it would take. It only took me like 5 minutes to install
 
yikes! looks like you got it taken care of just in time. you should also check the passenger side mount for rips as well. my passenger side was ripped, but I was able to put some AWR inserts in there and save it.

in other news, I back into a poll at the bank today. (headshake
