go out and buy the biggest box of baking soda you can find, mop up the rug and seats, then rub the baking soda into the rug, it will keep it from stinking as it drys. then use a shop vac or car wash vac to vac up the b/s. that stuff will kill your house vacuum real easy.

The mess has been cleaned up. It wasn't too bad. Luckily it hadn't been raining long.

thats good. leather seats dont like water much.

Parked next to this earlier today....

Stick on hood scoops!! Woo!!

Nothing to the GP. My mom asked me to check out her Caliber though. Said the brakes started grinding last night. I find a minor gouge stripe around the left front before I even get the wheels off. Go to break the lug nuts loose and start cussing. The mother effers who put her tires on last summer impacted the sh!t out of the lug nuts when they put them back on. I had to use a cheater pipe on the breaker bar to break them loose. When the lug nut squeaks and pops as it breaks free that means its too f@cking tight.

I told my mom that if she goes back there to get tires that she needs to tell Jimmy that if they impact the lug nuts like that again I will personally go down there and punch them in the face.

Anyway, I got the lug nuts off and went to take the caliper bolts off. Took left front off no problem. Go to right front and top bolt breaks free. Bottom bolt just breaks.

I ended up having to take the caliper bracket off and run over to my uncle's place and heat the ever living hell out of it with a torch to get the rest of the bolt out. Got online, ordered the pads and the bolt kit. Ran to Advance to pick it up and I guess the system made an error so I got a free upgrade from the silver pads to the gold ones.

Came back, put the brakes back together and anti-seized the hell out of the slider bolts.

My mom asked me if I would rotate the tires while I was working on the car anyway, so I plan on that too. I grab the cheater pipe and go to the left rear and got 4 of the 5 broke loose. The 5th stripped the cheap ass chrome cap off it and it is giving me a hell of a time trying to get something else hammered onto it so I can get it broken loose. Of course it started raining so I had to come inside because I was getting soaked.

If the rain doesn't stop in the next hour or so I am just going to go out, put it all back together and worry about that damn lug nut and rotating tires until another day.

Just spent about an hour touching up all the rock chips in the paint. I feel like 100% of them could've been avoided had GXP's come with mud flaps from the factory. I'm sure others agree?

They made a special edition blue 04+ with hood vents. That's probably what you saw.

Sold it to the guy I bought my cx650 off of last year. $450 profit after 6 years of ownership I think is pretty good.
