I took her out last night for about an hour. We went out in the countryside and played. I think I may have burned off a lot of tread at one deserted intersection....
Today I put her out in the driveway while my wife's '07 TBSS got an ONR bath followed by Adam's Brilliant Spray Glaze, she's all bright & shiny now.
I looked at pictures of my G8 and daydreamed on how badass its going to be once i get out of iraq! 4 more months!!!!
Blacked out my center cap arrow heads with vinyl from eBay and installed the glove box light mod this morning. Small steps...
Changed the diff fluid and re flashed the ecm

Anyone who has ever worked on a car has been in your position, and sitting cross-legged on a concrete floor with a dim shop light is its own kind of hell... Chalk it up as one of the rites of passage.
RIP Chris Wells - Panzer Leader
That's why I bought mine a Corolla - she can hit as many curbs as she wants with that one. However, I do feel your pain; I just noticed scratches all down the side of my car from the kids brushing past it in the garage with their winter jackets. Why couldn't they rub against the Toyota?!?!?!?!
