Funny I actually started reinforcing my upper window trims the other day too by epoxying a bunch of popsicle sticks around the trim.

I actually had a bunch of pieces hydrodipped a while back. I thought I would like the black burlwood pattern but might go another direction again.

Matte black. I used Plastidip; it's still holding up!

Default New Floor Mats and E-Brake Boot
Picked up a boot on eBay and a pair of Lloyd Mats. I think it came out pretty good, especially considering where this car was when I bought it back in March.

Comparison Photos

Now, I need to decide what to do with the steering wheel...

Swapped to GS. I like them better on the GS to be Honest. Also some pics of my GS wheels on the SC and the 97+ rear bumper added as well.

I don't think I've ever seen a LM-R style rim on the SC before. You have all the wheels that I've been wondering what they would look like on the SC. lol

I took my 2003 SC430 to my local mechanic to diagnose why it was losing freon. I was told to replace the evaporator core, valve and recharge at a cost of $900. I'm confused about the labor; do you need to pull the dash or can you only pull the glove box ++. I would try again to fill with freon that has stop leak but I'm recovering from foot surgery. Any chance that someone that lives int Broward/Palm Beach County FL can assist or fix?

Be better to post this in the SC430 section.... You are sure to get more educated answers.... (but it does sound like a "second opinion" at a reputable independent is called for...)

Simple oil and oil filter change at the local quick change site... Discovered a few bulbs are out in the rear that will need some attention (but not enough to get pulled over....).
