MCCR... I'll send you a pm in regards to the trim wrapping but yeah I can do it for you!
sounds good-I'm not digging the wood trim any longer. have you done many steering wheels in wood trim or the like? If for some reason it's more trouble to wrap, I could always swap to an all leather steering wheel.

Oil change was easy...



Diff fluid change was the tough one complete because the fill hole was a pain in the butt to get to due to the E cut out valves.

Gonna pull the trigger on an isf replica rear bumper this week. My first thought was ebay. Any other decently priced places to buy this bumper from here in Cali?

Hey man, love the wrap. Thinking about doing my roof soon and was wondering if you can offer some tips. Will I need a heat gun?

You definitely need a heat gun. I would also remove the antenna which I have done on all the IS's that I've wrapped. I'll shoot you over a PM right now. I can show you how to wrap it so you don't mess up.

Picked up the ISF rear bumper yesterday evening after work and I decided to buy a new grill once I was at it!







Can't wait to get the rear bumper installed!


Also picked up an ISF rear sway bar from Namster. Really cool dude and was a pleasure doing business with him!

That's the plan.

I want to do what RVCA did to his rear bumper. I was also looking at the Arkym rear diffuser like this one:
