Yesterday changed oil, transmission lube and differential lube, 66000 miles, but not first change, only the first done by me after a year of ownership. Old fluids looked great. Diff magnetic plug only had thin film of carbon, no metal particles.

And upgraded the floor mats to the European premium mats.

This car belonged to my dad before he passed away two years ago. He was the original purchaser and put over 122,000 miles on the car. Working on it is my way of spending time with him, at least in spirit.

Where did you get those calipers? Or did you letter them yourself?

Calipers are painted stock with lettering from eBay.

took some preventative measures, added some patches (three on each side) to the inside of the top to help keep it from tearing.




then removed (one was cut) and reapplied additional Faux carbon fiber sill protectors.

Relocated the front plate and put the bumper screw tabs back in. Looks so much cleaner
