Did nothing to it directly...looked at it, longingly, and reassured it and myself that it is right that tough love keeps it under wraps until April rains wash away winter in Nebraska...

I had a Robbins top installed by S2k_born 4 weeks ago (I forgot to post about it). Should be stretched into shape. It's sunny out and may hit the 80's. I'm gonna drop the top for the first time in a while and go for a drive.

After my 05 NFR has given me 17 years of pleasure, I have noticed that the two temp controls knobs have developed slight cracks. So today she got new knobs!!!. I ordered two pairs just so that she’ll be looking good for the next 34 years.
She just hit 100,000 miles last week. Today I also gave her new coolant and cabin filter. Next weekend….. new NGK plugs.

Just did this. For me it was the door lock rod protector (where it clips into the door lock actuator), the wire harness going to the door lock actuator contacting the door panel, and the clips holding the wire harness on the door getting old and loose. Used felt tape and duct tape at the contact points and it seems to have worked.

Sanded and polished headlights. Then applied PPF.

Fun but a bit stressful, as the xpel film isn't cheap.

Inexpensive if not free way to get around this is to stop by your local auto window film joint and say hi. They usually will give you the scraps from other jobs. That is more than enough to do your headlights for free.
Frankly, if you are not a dick and somewhat nice, they will hand over (or let you pick) scraps that will work on the fenders, hood, or significant other.

My Mugen exhaust wasn't sitting right ever since I installed it despite my attempts to correct it. I decided to replace all the exhaust hangers with brand new ones (first coated with Shin Etsu) and it made a difference. The exhaust tips sit nicely and even now with very little movement. The consistency of the old units, although still appearing to be serviceable, were soft and pliable and most likely due to age and heat cycles (and much heavier OEM exhaust unit). The new pieces were harder and less compliant and took out the sag. I enjoy maintaining this car.

First time I had the top off while under my ownership, love the view! The phone mount and cupholder are both from Modifry. The phone holder itself, which attaches to the phone mount via screws is from Arkon and ordered via Amazon. I have that and other accessories I'd recommend on my site (the Amazon links are embedded in the site): https://oemplus.club/recommendations

Cheers!
