Scraped the right corner of the front lip against a curb... for the SECOND time. Am I the only idiot who can't figure out where the corners are on this car?

Going to try to spray it myself.

Do you have an aftermarket lip installed? If not, I'd get one of the cheap ones off eBay (I have the BaysonR). It'll protect your painted bumper and you won't mind scraping anything as much when it happens.

Had my windshield replaced...

Seal/weatherstrip is a bit uneven along the top now but not enough to warrant having it redone unless it causes a problem *shrug*

Edit: I was able to carefully run my credit card along the weatherstrip and tuck it back into it's proper position. Silly me.

Spent a few hours giving the car some long needed love, hadn't washed it in 6 weeks. Washed, waxed, vacuumed, washed carpet, reinstalled my sound deadener in the doors.

Mmmm It's like a new car.




Don't mind the bumper gap by the hood. Replacing the weatherstripping.

Anyone go months without anyone even glancing at your car.. then within one week you get people stopping to ask questions daily?

Pretty weird, been one of those weeks.

That's 20mm front 25mm rear.
Ideally rear should be 28ish, but I love it how it is.

And Eibach sportline springs.

Not a bad setup for <$500.

Dont know why but I really like the OEM-ness look of the stock wheel. Spacer+lowering spring just make it look even better

May be I'm getting old hahaha

Agreed, and I'm not old, so

I looked for wheels before I even bought the car.
Then about 1 year in, I found a love for the stockers.
