I redipped my wheels. I got tired of the black and they needed to be touched up from random nicks and scratches. I tried two different techniques. White under red and black under red.
Plus now it will be easier to tell my car when I scan through thousands of Killboy pictures next week
Both colors next to each other.
Another new windshield. State Farm apparently only repairs three chips before they'll replace a windshield, and mine had four.
Same two guys as last time, from Specialized over in Queen Creek.
Hopefully this one will stick around a while....
C ya,

Sounds like me in the new Jeep. Replaced it, it leaked... Repaired it, still leaked... Replaced it, still leaked... Fourth times a charm, no more leaks... Just in time to take off the roof and doors.
I really like the 4" tips. Everything feels and sounds good with the exhaust? How are you liking it so far?
Yeah I love the sound, sounds just perfect! I used 2.5" SS piping. I will post a video today possibly if not Sunday on a thread I made for 2nd gens exhaust system. I put a resonator on though cause drone was happening at 75+ mph. I did take the 2nd cat off though!
Got rid of the ugly orange bulbs on the side markers.
I replaced mine with an interior wedge bulb initially, which got rid of the orange, but it was blippin' bright. Changed to a set of PIAA pure white wedge bulbs which are way more subtle when signaling.
Hey, this is a weird place to put this, but does anyone know if there is an easy fix to restoring my *auto up* on my driver's side window?

I'm trying to remember how I did mine. Try rolling the window down and then rolling it back up. On the way up (once it's fully closed), press and hold the switch for maybe 10 seconds longer. I know those are the steps that I used and it worked. Just don't remember the length of time. It was the same on my Infiniti.
Starting to paint my COOPER emblem Gloss Black. I wiped it down with mineral spirits and am doing thin coats. If the paint doesn't hold good, I may have to sand/scruff up the plastic chrome.
