Sanded, primed, and re-sprayed my center console trim...In a mineral grey. Next up, the wood trim pieces-pics will come eventually, saving for my interior build thread.

I bought new trunk and hood shocks for the SC. Advance autoparts has them on sale 10% off when you buy 2 or more.

Smile It is pretty COLD in NY right now however we.......

(I went to my guy for #1 but did a few other things)

1) Installed new serpentine belt (SQUEAL GONE).
2) Repaired my (scary) understeering issue. (loose rack bolt).
3) Mobil 1 oil/filter change.
4) Installed new audio amplifier.
5) New filter for injen intake.
6) Fixed auto start.
7) Checked and topped off all fluids.
8) Installed Rain X wiper blades (AWESOME) and Rain-X Wash fluid!
9) Purchased halogen bulbs for my DIM (sum) Chinese headlights (did not put bulbs in yet, still hoping seller finds the stock headlights for me).
10) Wash-wax-armour all .......................(damnnnnnn it looks nice)

------------------------------
11) Cleaned engine bay!

Perhaps I mentioned that my engine was so clean, you could eat off of it.
NYC rats did just that!
I opened my SPOTLESS engine bay to find a DEAD RAT, food and POOP all around my bay.
There was a RAT PARTY in my car while it was parked.
Lucky they brought their own food and left my wires alone!

Installed the trunk supports. Nice to not have that dropping on my head.
