For the differential, if you're using Motul that has the built-in spout it's a little hard to get the final drops out of the bottle. I added this remaining fluid to a fresh bottle then continued my fill. My diff held a little under 1.3L.

With the transmission, once you squeeze out what you can from a bottle into the transmission, you can then wedge/prop the bottle above the fill hole draining downwards and let the remaining fluid run out by itself. It goes a little slow because there's no air vent but it shouldnt take more than 3-4 minutes.

Motul bottle wedged upside down (above transmission) to fill what I couldn't squeeze out:

What are you shooting with?

Thanks! They're actually pictures that my buddy took with his Canon Rebel T2i, both 10-20mm lens and 50mm f/1.4. I shoot with a Nikon D5000, typically my standard 35mm until I can purchase a Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 II wide angle.

There are some very tiny tabs (two on one side, and one on the other) that you'll need to trim off. But it's easy work. The stock bulbs have them, but the LED bulbs are slightly off-alignment (one is on the wrong side of the bulb). But when you trim them off it still fits very snug and clicks in.

The color looks great. It's a little on the blue side, but that's probably because it's next to the 4500k headlights. But definitely > stock.

What ramps are those? And how do you like them?

No wonder - talk about wide angle!
I'm looking into upgrading from my D7000 to a FX camera, but I'm also saving for mods. Priorities, you know!

Even if it's not until next year, if you ever upgrade, keep me posted. I might want your D7000 since it's a step up from my D5000.

Juggling photography, car mods, health and clothes/fashion gets expensive QUICK. I surely understand!

Got her detailed by @Greg Gellas at Signature Detailing. Always does amazing work. If your in the Jersey area I would definitely take a look at his shop.

Absolutely love the burnt tips with WRB. I'm insanely jealous.

Well, what I did "yesterday" was:

Michelin Pilot Super Sports installed (sorry folks just stockers).

Motul Gear 300 Diff/Trans fluid changeover yesterday (first time doing something like this). I apparently didn't screw up the fluid change, but the rubber protectors on my jack stands scraped the paint on the jack points a bit. Was not metal on metal scraping. Going to try to touch it up with this: [ame="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0070S7T9K"]Rust-Oleum Automotive 254864 32-Ounce Professional Undercoating Quart, Black - Spray Paints - Amazon.com[/ame]
