    Did the first oil change since taking ownership. That filter housing was a nightmare. The dealership must've put it on with air tools. Finally got it, but it was a joke how tight it was.

    After that was done, I ordered Clazzios from Rodney. Super excited for those.

    I did the electrical knock-out cap thing, sprayed them enamel black to prevent rust inside the wheel from metal-metal contact, then crazy-glued these on. The peel-off glue that comes with the emblems aren't sticky enough to hold securely.

    Looks good. I've been thinking of picking up some 1" stickers to put on my centercaps. Still undecided.

    I wiped the hardware caps down with alcohol and the stickers hang on just fine.

    Debating if I want white to match the car or silver to match the lug nuts. ;)

    Took it to the dealer for a 10,000 mile check up. Tires rotated and oil change. Also picked up one those wide rear view mirrors

    I prefer the flat, non-distorting type of wide mirror. Those convex ones give me a headache. :(

    Finally put some air in the tires today. They were only set at 32psi from the factory and I bumped them up about 10 pounds. :)

    Trying to figure what happened to my fog lights. They were working on Tuesday and now they don't; already checked the bulbs! ;)

    Check the fuse. If the fuse is okay, then the relay might have gone bad.

    If it's an add on kit, then also check the tap where the trigger wire for the relay gets it's power from the brown wire.

    It is an add on kit. I am hoping it's not the relay as I installed a STB.

    Hello Modders, have not been on for awhile but I just installed Cusco's Power Bracing - Rear, Mid and Front, with Front Sway Bar and Upper Strut Power Bar. What a difference! Car is very nice and stiff, makes driving more fun and my wife told me she totally felt the difference! Totally worth the investment. Ask for Kenji at Cusco and tell them I referred you. Totally worth the investment.

    Also, added Ran-Up, oil additive. Great product! I noticed that our idle had become very smooth and you could definitely feel less vibrations from the engine. I was like no way this is when I was in POWER MOD. Seems that they use this Ran-Up oil additive on the space shuttle...

    Did you put covers on top of headlights? Looks like a different car now.
