so, what is everyone doing to their cars now that its getting warm and nice out? any tune ups or new parts?

I all ready put my rims on, and just got my 5 star shine kit in the mail. so i plan on removing the pin stripe, and using the 5 star shine protection pretty soon. ill also be adjusting the struts and sway bars a little bit more aggressive and installing my new exhaust when it comes. cant wait.

Hopefully a set of new rims and summer tires coming in soon. Then replacing tension rods. Then trying to find that elusive, annoying air leak that's making my idle around 1000 rpms.

I'm doing anything to the car. I do have to build a deck on the back of my house and landscape. All my money looks to be headed into the house this year. Maybe, if there is any money left over, I can install BRM headers and exhaust this fall though.

Mr1der i plan on getting some wheel gap very soon. As in 3 more inches of gap. As for this weekend, we get the joy of changing the fluid in the front and rear axles, transfer case and transmission.
