got my car prepped to install my new tte lip since I ran my old one over, got the car on jack stands. Decided to check my front end for any play since the last week its felt a little rough. I thought I needed new tires because they were choppy, but came down where I had over half an inch of play on my driver side outer tie rod, so ended replace both outer tie rods. going to replace the inners sometime this week also and then take it to get an alignment and then hopefully install my lip and get her back to my standards. I picked up some blue tint for my head lights and white vinyl for windshield so I should be doing all this plus the lip this weekend so ill post pics to follow.

got the rest of the maintenance items from the Rockauto and finally got to change the VVT solenoid and it seems it fixed my harsh idle and jerking at operating temp! I also tried to change the front bumper for a spare one I have, but the driver's fender is too mangled for the new bumper to fit so I gotta address that first.

Thanks for the props! I picked em up at TireRack, they're on clearance because they only have rear fitment. I'm gonna pick up some extended studs and spacers for the rear so that they will match the front. I'm still on the fence about which coil-overs I want, been leaning towards Megan's.

Going to do oil change. Replace license plate lights with white LED bulbs. Was stoked to find a box of unused led's in my toolbox. Gonna clean the interior up, and then see why my rear passenger door makes a god awful noise when it locks.

fixed a few burnt out LEDs... they had a good run... lasted 7 years... i couldn't see jack at night so it was getting hard setting the climate control with no backlight...
my custom made lights were holding well but the resistors were breaking apart...
changed it up a bit to add some color... went with a white background for the climate control... and made the defroster buttons red
