born and raised here in Cham-bana. I left for about 7 years and here again. Traveling any direction makes it comfortable to live here. Head lights are cracked so it fogs up and its yellow on the inside and outside. I've polished them up before just not worth the hassle.

Wow never heard of Plasti Dip here in Australia.
Looks pretty cool.
How do you care for the finished surface?
Does it peel off over time or last a fair while?

dengman

hand wash. feels like a rubber coated. does not peel over time. you have to force peel it for an edge.
youtube it. its neat stuff. faster prep and clean up time vs real paint job. I plan on doing a real paint job in the spring.

Watched him doing a White M3.
The prep looked pretty easy. Good idea like you say as an interim if getting a better paint job down the track.

Went to Kansas City to visit a friend for his sons 1st birthday. On the way there his wife gave birth to their 2nd child. His wife told him not to cancel the birthday party. It was her idea to have the party too, planned months before.

Got a chance to do my motor mounts at his shop while I was there. Did my trans drain and fill too.

*edit*
honestly I was scared working on the car on the lift. its been a few years since I've turned wrenches. haha. I was going to redo my exhaust while I was there but time was limited so I left it for now.

Bah, those are still good!
Squirt some lube on there and put'em back in!

wait I got a question did you use mk3 supra coilovers on your ls

dengman

yes. I do not recommend it. the rear top hat is different slightly between the manufacturers.
You might have to file or drill out the holes in the rear deck to fit. Spring rates are different than the supra. balance and handling will be off.

nicee work!

Is that all that was needed to make the mk3 coils fit? these seem to go a lot lower the the actual coilovers megan makes for the ls400.
