Took the G8 in to the dealer for the Passenger Side Air Bag recall. No issues afterwards, and they washed the car. The dealer still has no material on hand to use for the key recall though. Several items seemed to have been reset (CD, trip meter, average MPG, etc) so I think I'll drive it for a couple of days so in case the ECM was reset, I won't have issues when I go for the smog test. After the smog test, the tune goes back on!

OCD DIYer
Pulled it out of the garage on Thursday to take it to a local cruise-in at a fast food grill. Pretty good turn-out, and quite a few classics. Then I drove 'er around Raleigh for a bit, scoping out a few houses I'd been looking at online. Felt good to get it out and stretch its legs. Even with all the suspension mods, it's still so comfortable and approachable.
Today I began taking stock of the parts I have and the parts that I need for putting stock parts back on. Then I pulled and sold the radar detector. So it begins.
