That's my dream right there. The only time I've ever paid off a car... is when I sold it.

I'm determined to keep this one until it's at least paid off though. Good job!

I'm totally happy I did it. The cold start is still loud-ish, but MUCH more reasonable (and doesn't sound quite as crappy). Haven't noticed any effect on normal driving.

Set mine from 15 to 4 this morning, and sounds much less obnoxious. Will try setting to 0 next to compare

Installing t'mor!

I love those way more than your current wheels!

Installed the oem style (2015 forester) oil cooler and blew out my turbo's exhaust gasket... Can't win.

Installed a new driver side bumper bracket. First time doing any kind of DIY and pulling the bumper was easier that I thought. It would've gone A LOT quicker if the body shop that fixed it the last time didn't strip some clips, forget about 6 of them, put the wrong clips in 2 holes, and forget 3 bolts. Having a lift and an extra set of hands would've helped putting it back on and getting some of those clips in underneath the car.

Either way, it was a good learning experience and I'm definitely more confident to do my own work now if I can. I'm so tired of people fucking up my car.

Kicked her out with spacers all around and fitted the smoked side markers with Amber LED's

Ordered one of those ugly Dashmats in black suede to stop my dash from melting and lifting up around the center vents.

Attempted to fix some rattles that started developing after winter.

Sandwiched a piece of foam on top of the HU and center A/C vent. No more rattling or any noise coming from that area now.

I had foam insulation shoved between the dash and windshield that stopped the dash rattle last year. Rattle came back so I shoved more foam but that didn't work so I ripped all of it out and the rattling stopped..for now. Weird.

Why is it so hard to have a rattle free car.

Installed whiteline steering rack bushings and upper camber bolts and got the front end aligned with me sitting in the car.

-1.2 degree and 0 toe in the front.

Can't wait to get the UCA bushings done and the rear dialed in.

The car is just alive, the front grips strongly the rear is much easier to rotate and the car feels twitchy.
