Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

Nice day to ride the GTP.



Detailed the Escape. It needed very badly. First time I have detailed it since I bought it.

Whoever did it before me needs shot. Drain bolt took me using my leg as more power to remove it while using 2 wrenches on each other for more leverage . Then the filter crushed trying to use my wrench because the damn hulk put it on like really? Plus it took all 5 quarts which is weird oh well

I had that issue on the work F250. I had to use a pipe wrench to take the oil filter off and had to use my legs to break the drain plug loose.

Every 6 months is fine if you aren't meeting mileage.

^ That is what I do. Twice a year oil changes when I do not hit the milage.

I didn't know the exact time amount cause It feels like I'm constantly changing oil

got to work this morning, walking back to my car i see coolant on the ground. so i pop the hood and look around, but see no active leaks. it was wet in the sub frame by the a/c. only thing there is the lower hose. funny but it failed to leak the rest of the day. as i was driving it all day long.

came home and parked it in its newly paved parking spot. nice crappy pic. i was on the walk and had to piss. f it.

Bought a tool kit to keep in the car. I mean, I have lots of tools, just not any in the car

That's the kit I got, and I only paid $78 for it.

I keep a $5 full metric/standard socket set in my car. From like a ridiculous 3mm to 17mm I believe. Same area in standard sizes.

Bought front and rear pontiac inlays. Thinking of getting the Grand Prix decal that goes along the top of the windshield.

Nnnnnnnnoooooooooooo we know what it is. No need for window banner. And I like decals. Lol

Lol I know, I like the look of the outlined decals. Not too bold and standing out. I would get the color that matches my paint as well so it won't stand out like white or red.

No no no

Lol. If I drove a gxp, I wouldn't put a gp decal there.
I just drive a n/a, I need something to stand out lol

Do it!

I have til spring to decide. An ice scraper would probably kill it soon. I think i would like it. There are so many gp's in my area its ridiculous. The only thing that makes mine different is its not dented or rusty like many. Retros is my only external mod so far. Well see after the overlays. I'd debadge if I did the decal

so those dumb banners go on the outside? i was always under the impression they went on the inside like tint brow.

Hmm. Well I was assuming, don't take my word.

They go on the outside, because if they went on the inside you wouldn't see it through the tint brow, lol. I agree, don't do it!
