Default some driveway shots before storage

Hey guys!
insurance ended today and shes going into storage till next spring. it has been Raining pretty damn bad lately, flooding the back streets and what not so i figured i would just store her for this season.

Anyways, thought i would show some love and snap some last final shots for the year

Don't mind the Cali plate. cousin in Sunland gave couple to me and i'd rather have that on than a big awkward blob in the bumper of missing plate







p.s would like some pointers in how you guys store your cars.. I've never actually stored a car long term like this before.
Should i warm it up bi-weekly? or should i just disconnect the negative terminal on battery and let it sit?
Also, not sure if this is a rumor or not, but i heard that it's better to leave your gas tank full since an empty tank my lead to condensation build up in the tank over time? i am also in the market for a s2000 OEM car cover, so if you guys have any lying around please let me know!

Goes into a good amount of detail on winter storage
Most important things for me would be to fill up your tank, change the oil (pre and post storage) You can use a generic oil brand for the pre storage and the good stuff post. Trickle charge for the battery and give it a good detailing before you store it.

Car looks great btw.

Nice love the look. I'm sure you'll miss the car until next season. Good luck with the storage!
Question what mm spacers are you running on your car since I am looking for the same look on mine with the ap2v1? Hate that it's not flush.
How many inches are you dropped and what suspension are you running any feedback on them?

thanks, i am on 25mm spacers all around with all corners rolled. I am using 255 hankook rs3's in the rear which is a little fatter than regular tires so it does sit even more flush than regular 255's.
My coilovers are buddyclub n+'s but I'm trying to see if anyone is interested in them since i want to upgrade to KW variant 3's.
I'm also not sure how many inches im dropped, never really measured

Setup looks perfect man... it's gonna be hard to put her in the storage Thinking about swapping my v3's for some v1's just because of how they look with spacers on..
