Got my signal flasher and dash cam installed today.

No car related gifts for christmas but I will be lowering it next year and adding HID headlights (I might go with the FXR projectors, it's only a bit more but apparently a lot better than most OEM HIDs). The rest is still undecided.

My RCE yellow springs came in the other day. Can't wait til spring to put them on. Mild lowering (20mm), which I think will be just about right.

Merry Ho Ho

Congrats.
Yes, I have a white one too (its parked for winter though).

Thanks guys!

df. dima - I think I drove behind your car once on Huron/Fischer-Hallman before getting mine. After seeing how incredible yours looked my wait seemed to have gotten tougher.

Picked up a set of 4 Michelin tire bags at TSC on Homer Watson for $16.99 yesterday. Much nicer than the plastic shopping bag version my summers were stored in up to this point.

Is there a benefit to storing them in bags, other than cosmetic (storage)?

Handles!

Not having flapping plastic is nice too.

Haven't seen any FR-S on the roads in months, but finally passed some one today (Whiteout FR-S).....on Northfield Dr in Waterloo, turning onto the highway (north). Anybody on here? It was a girl, not sure if there are any women on this thread. Car looked spotless tho...wish I could keep mine that clean in the winter!

This was yesterday around 12:30 in the afternoon - spotted a red FR-S on Northfield heading towards King. Only caught a glimpse in my left mirror.

That would've been me, grabbing lunch at Dominos. The $4 Grab-n-Go is delicious!

I saw a white one last night that was coming from Cambridge, turning left off King St onto Fountain St (headed towards Shantz Hill Rd). I don't think the driver saw me while I was going around the ramp from Fountain onto King, seconds after an ambulance had us all pulling over.

Does anybody know a good place to get window tints done in the region?

I had mine done at Ziebart / Uniglass by Guelph Toyota/Scion. Fairly pleased overall. There is one very minor imperfection, but, it is not as though they do it in a clean room like one for computer processor production. Pretty sure Slartibartfast got his done there too. I think it was about $225.
