Bit of a preview on the wheel color, I decided to paint the barrels on my wheels first.

After installing some Whiteline sway bars and endlinks, a neat new clunking sound is coming from my suspension. It seems to be happening in the rear, mostly at low speeds on uneven pavement. I lifted it up and checked all the torques and bolts, made sure the sway bar wasn't contacting anything, greased up whatever I could, no luck. Comes and goes, most people just live with it I've read. Will have to check to see if the coilover is seated correctly. Sigh...

Ordered gorilla 45128bc forged steel lugs.
Edit: did some calculations, also ordered APR extended studs and 10mm spacer. Last edited by RToyo86; 05-01-2020 at 08:44 AM. |

Washed it. My water softener setup works great. It takes my hard well water from 285 ppm to 2 ppm.

I'd really like to get a softener setup like that. I have a filter on the garden hose, that's about it. It helped a little, but still have crazy water spots anywhere that I don't get dry within 2 seconds of washing.
Starting to think I'd be better off going to Crew Car Wash or something. :/ --- As for what I did to my FR-S today, it's not quite finished, but I'm installing my OEM fog light kit...only been sitting in the box in the garage for a year and a half or so.

Finished up painting my wheels, they turned out great. Unfortunately I have to touch up/redo the farthest wheel as two of my beard hairs fell onto the wheel 😂
