Everyone at work was calling it a baby seat but I assure you I'm a big boy. Bucket seats just look small when they aren't mounted.

Not as glamorous but I pulled the sun visor to block the sun and it came off...

It’s the little triangular shaped plastic that broke but they of course sell the visor assembly as whole. Toyota dealer said oh that’s a Subaru part, we will call you when we have it.

Finally got my cars name applied. Just popped in my head a couple years ago (took this long to get it on lol). Never heard the name/word before so I thought it was perfect.

At first glance I thought "Who has put a Mitsubishi sticker on their car?"

Painted my oem tails red today. I read that with the VHT, more thin coats is better. I sprayed 7-8 coats, with the last being a little heavy.

I waited till the taillight looked clear after each coat. Then on the last coat, I got close to where I could see the orange peel, and bombed it on till the surface went smooth, all the while being careful not to run it.

I practiced on an empty windex bottle. Which is hard clear plastic, similar enough to practice on.

I understand this is a budget mod. I also wanted to justify some Toms if I F'd-up my stock tails...

Unfortunately, they turned out ok... I am going to wet sand and clear them tomorrow. And, hopefully my ignition coil arrives and I can put that in too!

My car is parked outside. It looked it might rain this morning before I left for work. So, I threw the lights back in quickly to cover the holes. Here are a few pics that show how smooth the surface looks before more work...
