Next, I degreased and sprayed down the engine bay and used my leaf blower to remove any excess water. And last but not least, gave the car a hand wash and hand wax. I'd say she cleaned up decently!
You should try doing a leatherique treatment for a deep cleaning of the leather. It takes a while and makes a mess, but it helps so much.

A 3 spoke RX steering wheel with the wood grain would a nice finishing touch for your interior.

I don’t know if this counts but I pulled a few ice chunks off my SC. All of my cars except for the LS are covered in ice.

Your cars look great, as always. The LS looks equally as shiny too!

Washed and polished the SC for a small gathering planned for this Saturday. Will also be getting replacement/new front tires on that day, too.

Installed the vented Jzz30.com front splash shield. My rear one is 2-3 years old now and covered in grime from (another) leaking PS rack.

Put some tire “Black Magic” on the new front tires (and of course the rears, too....)

The undertrays are great, plus Ren (ownder of jzz30) is awesome. My friend crashed his car like 3 days after he installed his JZZ30 splash shields, and it saved everything behind the bumper since it absorbed all the impact. I texted Ren, sent him these photos, and told him I'd be needing to buy a replacement. He told me he would send us a new one free of charge to help us out with the rebuild. I was so amazed, that I told him to bill me for an additional one for my car and ship them together.

I've always wanted a carbing strut bar with the master cylinder brace. Finally impulse bought one.



I had to leave the black shock tower spacers in order to clear the GE intake manifold, so the master cylinder brace isn't perfectly centered, but it still works.

I installed some JDM Soarer side markers. They look super cool lit up at night.

Big thanks to Blkexcoupe for hooking me up with these!
