of course lol still deciding on a color, im probably putting my friends diamond forged pistons in if i buy them

i dont wanna do black thats boring

i was thinking of painting my whole engine bay black while the engine is out because its white and is not the prettiest

was thinking maybe a old skool pontiac blue

what you guys thinkin?

I installed my overkill pcm.

Gave the Sonic a decent bath. Waiting for better weather to do a full detail. Then I drove it back home, and got 51.2mpg, driveway to driveway.

Plus, I changed out the factory plug wires on the wagon, and suddenly it found another cylinder. No idea how long it had been misfiring on that cylinder.

cleaned the terrain yesterday. after our trip with three dogs the leather needed some cleanin along with drool marks down the side of it lol got some meguries black car polish. anyone try any there products or know any good wax's for black?

I don't know how long it had been off, but so far it seems to be staying put. The wife hasn't complained about it running rough either.

Remember...A happy wife makes a happy life!!

I use this stuff called back to black on all of my black trim and my pillars, it brings faded blacks back to a nice glossy dark black. Not sure if it works on paint or not but it's worth lookin into, great product.

Edit: for plastics only

Adam's VRT is amazing for plastics/vinyls/etc.

Clear Markers. Hopefully I can find an aftermarket bulb that isn't amber.

I've been thinking about getting these myself. Would look good with my clear corners.

Nothing today, its been parked inside my garage since 11 of August until I get back from a military operation that has sent me 3K Km north of where I live.
