What a great weekend (at least it was on Long Island) to be working on the car! Had a whole list of things to get done to my baby. Spent most of Saturday getting it done. Here's all of what I did...>>finally replaced the crappy dealer license plate frames with hawaiian themed ones, but not happy with the look as the black is a bit too glossy for me, so I'll have to keep an eye out for something better>>installed Doc's illuminated kickplates...a bit of an homage to the "old" days when they used put names on the doors...see below for what I mean>>changed out the OEM wiper blades for the Bosch Icons that were (are?) on sale>>tried on door edge guards, but decided that they took away from the lines of the car, so those got removed same minute they got put on>>changed the oil and filter>>installed the front and rear endlinks

Here's a few shots from the day...The back license plate coverThe kickplates togetherMy (driver) side all doneBF's (passanger) sideUnsuccessful door edge guards...see what I mean about the lines?Rear (passanger) endlink installed Both rear endlinks installed Front (driver) endlink installed

Next weekend: K&N intake (if I get it in)

Thanks I'm not sold on the frame yet though, but it's better than the dealer one while I keep looking...
