Just ordered the valve cover needed for Kpro, which I plan to get next year. Asked for a quote to have that, intake manifold, supercharger and after cooler powder coated semi-gloss black to match the calipers. Car is at the body shop till mid-January anyways. No better time than the present! Gonna be like a new car come spring time

I intend to get a new OEM soft top, fix the tweeter on driver side door (stereo installer did a terrible job, the crossover rattles in the door too

As far as mods, I had purchased a set of Volk CE28n but the seller couldnt find time to ship??? So he sent me back the payment.

First year since I got the car I have no real plans
. I do want a hardtop and that would have been this year's winter goal, but I think I am going to ultimately spend my money on few other toys once I get the OK from the State

I think I need to get my garage to a state where I can actually work in there without freezing my butt off. Debating on insulating it this winter, although it would be much easier in the spring when I can re-locate stuff temporarily outside as I'm working.

Merged the two winter mod threads together, and made some progress on my list
Coilovers ordered 
Sounds like a good make over 
I got stuck driving the S in yesterday's storm unfortunately. Good thing I had my snow tires on. I plan on getting a beaternext week (Beater obtained and registered), then on the S:
Fluid changes (oil, trans, diff, brake, maybe power steering while I'm draining everything)
Full detail
Fix or replace my AP1 bumper (has a decent size hole from a tow hitch accident)
Fix my J's front end
Pick up an OEM front lip
Make a thread to trade my wheels (link), if that fails I'll powdercoat 'em and run them next year (Drag DR-31 17x8/9 +35/+38)
Wire remote trunk release (after installing my Bride's I can't open my glove box, and my K2 trunk doesn't have a key hole) (Thanks for the PM and tips Scott!!)
Get the skirts on
Mulderize the headlights
That's all I can think of for now, but I'm sure other things will arise.
How fun is winter, eh?
