:hello: Ms. Pint.

DIY?
Waiting for the wrap place to get black satin in and then test to see if it will adhere to the lip well. If yes, I'll be getting the lip, fangs and b pillar finishers wrapped. If it can't adhere well, I'll just be installing it as plain flat black against the gloss fangs.

:facepalm: Why not just use painter's blue so it matches the theme? :icon17:

FYI, I am ordering white, pearlizer and glossifier Plasti Dip for that project. That, I might need your help with.

No kidding... it's amazing how much 5 seconds and some rubbing alcohol can help

oh ok well good luck Ms. Pint. Hopefully it adheres well so everything can match in finish.

I did get a taste of boost. I like it :drool: I didn't want to overdo it, I was running bald summer tires with 0°c temps. After reading stories from others who were in similar situations (without boost), I half expected to die. :pics:

I am trying to get all the loose ends tied up by the end of the month at the same time we're planning a trip to PA sometime in April.

Need to research hotels and stuff.
:yum: it's so addicting isn't it! :excited: glad your experience was good, and safe

It is addicting. This isn't the first car I've boosted however it has been so long since I have driven a boosted car... The memories came rushing back as soon as I heard the turbo spool. :yum:

On a side note, I highly recommend the RJM Performance clutch pedal assembly. Night and day difference (for the better). Best 'for the money' mod I put on the car. It really is that good.

She absolutely loves it, and we're so happy she has a reliable car now, especially since she is a nurse that does in-home hospice care and has to drive all over Central Texas at a moment's notice. Honda Fit FTW :tup:

hi mr.jar! :tup: sounds good. the fit is definitely reliable and great to use on a daily basis. if it wasn't i wouldnt have two of them. :icon17:

I'm looking to get some more wax since I just ran out a few weeks ago. Is Adam's Americana paste wax really worth the price? They have a special today (here), and I was considered trying it out... I have generally used Meguiar's Gold Class paste wax, and I've always been happy with the results.

That is my dog, Josie, and she is about 7 years old. We don't know for certain as she was a rescue. We had another, Daisy, but she came down with Lymphoma and we had to put her down last October.

Here is Daisy:

I really like Meguiar's Ultimate Paste. It goes on and comes off very easily, gives a great shine and lasts.

:tup: I'll check it out, thanks :tiphat:

Would you or anyone else happen to have a good recommendation for an applicator? Right now I use cheap microfibers ones that come in a 5 pack for $2.99 and make them one-time use only (I go through about two per coat of wax). I have a ton of them, but I would definitely be interested in a better quality pad that I can wash and reuse.

I use the applicator that comes with the wax. I also purchase extra applicators from Meguiar's as I do not like to use them more than once. When I am feeling ambitious, I apply the wax manually and then work in in (a section at a time) with my Porter-Cable. I take it off by hand, using multiple microfiber cloths and then buff it with a Meguiar's finishing towel.

Dang, I sound like a friggin' commercial.
