That's awesome! It makes a big difference in how the car drives. I did my front upper and lower control arm bushings, a new steering rack and new end links last year. It made a massive difference. My steering was so off that I considered getting rid of the car. Now it feels great. I just need the sway bar bushings like you ordered.

i used stuff i had at work. some 3m strip caulk for the barrier and some protective floor covering which is adhesive backed for the actual seal.

You did a high quality job. Looks excellent and I'm sure it will work great.

I've left this seal open or out completely on several vehicles that get driven and used in all kinds of Colorado weather. I've never had a drop of moisture touch the inside of the door card let alone get into the interior of the vehicle. However, if this is common on SC's for some un-foreseen reason I'm going to copy the technique above and get mine sealed up correctly.

Yeah, when I purchased my car, it didn't have a seal. The guy I bought the car from decided that he wanted to tear the whole interior out. As a result, after it rained one day, I saw water in the floor pan and the rear seat pan. Once I sealed the door panel, the water stopped leaking into the car.

Others have had the same issue. Here is one example: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/per...l#post10113419

Thank you for the heads up! I'll certainly make a point to correct that then. I'm glad you said something!

I did a little test fitting of this front bumper aluminum vented splash shield.

Does the new vented splash shield tuck up higher to provide more clearance?

The front vented splash shield only provides about an extra half inch of clearance when compared to the original plastic one.

Are you talking about the A/C vent gauge pod? I look forward to your purchase, thank you!

I need to measure to see if that is enough clearance for my floor jack to fit under the car. The original plastic always prevents my jack from reaching the subframe. I have to use 2 jacks to lift the car, but I'm able to lower the car using only 1 in the center.
