Nice, I want a big brake kit for my car, but I want to do all 4 wheels at the same time and that's a fucking crapload of money.

Those grit guards are far better than the new cyclone dirt traps, which don't do shit except prevent dirt from getting to the bottom of the bucket.

Speaking of Chemical Guys, picked up Pete's '53 wax. Can't wait to try it.

It's an '03 Tacoma, but the brakes are for a Tundra of the same year.

The brakes are almost the same size but with stronger calipers and thicker rotors for better heat-sink. Should be a fun retrofit project

Nothing yet. just an oil change this year and its all good.

Just bought new wheels... Costs an arm, I paid them off as soon as I bought them, but I still feel like I'm playing catch-up with my finances when I know that I'm not.

Feels great to have them though!

Had an upholstery joint do some work on my stock 350Z seats. Upgraded to some Corvette Red leather to match the rest of the interior. Was pricey but looks dope. Was my preference against being too ricey and getting aftermarket buckets. Plus I get to keep the heated/electric seats.

Bought some masking tape, flap discs and other stuff, getting ready to attempt a final solution to my rust problem before selling it, so it atleast will look nice and perhaps last a good year before the oxidijewsation starts poking through again

No, but I'm about to buy a car.

I'm debating between a Lexus ES350 or Mercedes E350. I can't really fucking decide.

Or I can save my money, buy a Camry and use the rest of the money on guns.

the red/greenishbeige-gray combination looks a little weird, personally i would've gone with black.

maybe its just the camera making it look weird.

should've gotten buckets, dude.

wtf i owned a w202 and had literally no rust apart from under one stone chip that i neglected for ages

I would have done black if not for the already stock beige trim. Was being cheap.

stick some alcantara on the steering wheel and your good to go.

The door card is more bland and boring than those old 80's Japanese trucks with just a vinyl-covered piece of cardboard for a door card. The dash is uninspired, the center stack is just a smooth bit of plastic up the middle. It's like you had an unimaginative 7 year old draw a car.

Ordered 500 EUR worth of parts from Netherlands to Canada. I can see on the tracking info that the address does not say my house number (sellers fault), everything else is there though. Now I get to silently freak out for 2 weeks wondering if it will fail to ship.

nice, i just did the same with my a4. the newer q5 suvs come with stock 4 piston fixed caliper brembos and bolt right up to the newer a4s. replacing my floating 1 piston stockers not only lets me use bigger 2-piece rotors, but also saved me about 18 lbs total, all unsprung mass, 7 of which was rotating from the rotors.

Bought an AUX Input for my 2002 BMW 318i and waiting for it in the mail. Was getting sick of burning CDs, I need my spotify goddammit! Plus I asked a BMW Specialist how much it would cost to install the wire, they told it would be $97. I might just man up and try to put in myself.
