    So here we are again....



    This ended in disaster with the Aluminum Monster, so I’m wondering if I should yank the current fubar trunk lock and disassemble it to get to correct sequence. Only problem is I can’t really get my trunk open right now... not sure if I should drill it out or ...?...

    Sunday Funday!!

    Met up with Charlie (sh3park!ng) and a few other friends at Supercar Sunday. Lots of amazing cars there.

    Afterwards we hit the canyons




    (Not pictured are the speed demons)

    That’s all

    Finally got a chance to tackle something that this car desperately needed. Euro grills weren’t cracked but looked quite gray, so it was time to bust out the SEM trim black.

    Cleaned them off, taped off the foam piece and got to work. Love the improvement and I will get a lot more of the trim done as time allows.

    Pics will tell the rest...

    Before


    Cleaned and masked off



    Weapon of choice

    Done



    More to come... someday lol

    I’m sure parking enforcer got you, or did you get pulled over?

    Got a parking ticket for no front plate... I actually had bought a front plate holder but hated how it looks and between test fitting the front plate deletes I hadn’t had one on for a while.

    Sooooo... can I just install it as-is?

    Nope! Phase one: Trim the fat


    Clean it up and install.



    Meh... it’s better I guess




    Still hate the front plate.

    I have a few more ideas but I need to get this ticket signed off first so leaving it like this for now.

    Plus I have more pressing things to deal with first. IE the leaks

    Same thing happened to my wagon's O2 connector. Was causing a fuse shared by the O2 sensor heater and HVAC to blow too.

    Course it happened to mine, because there was no O2 sensor shipped with the car since it had the no catalytic converter option. The connector just ended up hanging loose near the exhaust manifolds.
