Got around to some polishing: Used Blue Magic polish, some microfiber towels, a Dremel with polishing tips, and some manual labor.
Before and after Polished one on top... bottom one partially started. projekt zeal86 build |

Gave it a thorough wash and then I realized I had extra plastidip and a roll of painters tape, so I messed around with the front bumper to see what it'd look like haha.
Probably not gonna keep it but it kept me occupied and entertained for an hour. I'm sure if I dipped the lip to match the black it wouldn't be half bad. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

Yeah I have new wheels coming already. They should be here about a week after i get the car back. I am having a few different maps done as well so that I can drive a little more conservatively on the streets. Thanks for the heads up. I have been very curious about the difference with a wider tire even NA. Sounds like it isn't too much different lol. I have a feeling I am going to want to get a stickier compound after reading your comment though

Just tracking orders and waiting for the weekend where I'll be spending my 23rd birthday with some Hefeweizen and new toys for the car.
The dealer wants around 1K to install the head and tail lights, the side markers, and the lightweight pulleys so I might as well do it myself over the weekend and save a week's pay. Luckily, the tire shop is much more reasonable so I'll have a professional do that bit. |

Something new for summer.
Michelin PSS 265/35R18. They will replaced the 255/35R18 Continental DW on my TE37SL. Gonna roll fenders at Area1320 in PA and do a new alignment. .
