    hit a HUGE pothole, well actualy a complex of potholes the width of the street and must have kicked a rock up under the car and holed the sump
    AGAIN!!!
    getting replaced and getting bash plate installed this time.
    $600+ that was earmarked for new coilovers to raise the car up a bit as it is just a bit low IMHO.

    should have a 42dd 2.5" catback and pillar gauge pod this week. Viezu motorsport tune booked in for next week. All thanks to Greg at carformance. Looking forward to testing it out at powercruise. I think ill need new tyres to handle the power

    I finally received my replacement auto-dimming rear view mirror from the UK (after the first one got lost in the mail) and swapped it in. I hope it doesn't crap itself again this summer in the heat..

    I'm guessing you had the bubble in the mirror problem, how much did the replacement cost and how difficult was the swap?
