Sadness: so, after the storm I noticed that my car has hail damage

Dang it!!! :'(
Unfortunately, there are no carports at work... It's not horrible but definitely noticeable at the right angle... This is so sad.

Yep do it...the film protecting the bumper and hood is the way to go on this car. SA is notorious for getting rock chips from all the gravel trucks!

Not only the truck but on the runs to the twisted sisters! Front bumper was blasted on 335 and 337 through the sections that have shoulder work going on

Haha I was behind you on 335 and got blasted albeit not as bad as no flaps but still a lot more than I dreamed I'd catch!

I could be miss reading the information provided on Motul 300 transmission/gear 75w90 oil, but it specifically says for NON-limited slip vehicles? So does the Eneos 75w90 transmission/gear oil?

What gives are people still using these anyways? There is even a DIY on transmission/gear differential oil changes that documents using the Motul 300 oil???

We don't have a limited slip, we have a Torsen diff which is a bit different. To answer your question more directly. You can run the Motul Gear300 in the rear diff and transmission without hurting anything. They have a different blend that is for LS differentials.

I am currently running Motul Gear300 in the rear diff, and as soon as I get around to it. I will be running it in the transmission as well.

I got the paint protection film put on the lower section of my rear bumpers, don't need mudflaps. Jay did an awesome install on it.

Yeah these cars need the paint protection film on at least the front bumper, maybe even the hood\side front fenders too. The front bumper paint is very thin.

Doesn't help the front of the guy behind you, at all.

Yeah, I know, but what I am saying is you need to at least get the paint protection film put on your front bumper. It's money well spent. I would never got out on the twisted sisters naked...LOL!

Mud flaps probably won't help the person behind you either....distance will...

Or you could tape the crap out of your front hood/bumper... which I may do.
