"German Secondhandious Luxobargious"
is that contagious, or just contracted through contact with a luxobargious specimen?
if someone has already contracted GSL, is it like a vaccine where their immune system builds up a defense, thereby thwarting future contraction of the disease? or does it weaken the immune system, making them susceptible to relapse?
is chapter 7 the vaccine?
will brad and angelina ever get back together?

Put a new grill on the pictures don't show much difference, also de lodged the pass headlight the housing is messed up and some metal brackets but it looks presentable.
the 50 dollar grill is junk the plastic tabs that hold the black insert in to the chrome front broke when letting the hood drop, but fittment was spot on.
threw in some money shots too

Fixed every issue with the car, the keyless go button in the shift knob had the pins that go into the shift lever broken off. So I just took some welding wire and soldered it in as pins and it works now, and wrapped some tape around the lever so the shift knob doesn't wobble. The parking sensors did wierd things because one was unplugged. Heater valve pump thingy installed heat works. There was a loud screeching noise coming from a front wheel turned out to be a broken brake clip dragging on the rotor, 20 dollars for hardware kit.
And now for fuel consumption....

There was a recall on these dash's too for the pixels dying. Keep that in mind if you have a problem.

Well never ended up getting the parts car guy flaked out.
Put 3000 miles on it
needed a new thermostat, 95 dollars 15 min job
Alarm siren batteries are bad so if you lock the car the alarm will go off randomly throughout the night. I just unplugged it problem solved. To cheap to buy the 100 dollar siren.
Now for the cool stuff
motor mounts and trans mount that I filled with polyurethane 100 dollars
smaller sc pulley
ecu tune
belt wrap kit
High flow pump for the sc heat exchanger, and seperated it from the car's cooling system. I opted out of the 1000 dollar pump from the tuning companies for a better one that was 170 dollars, its for a live well....
car is stupid fast now
i have a tuned tcu but have to replace a transmission connector seal 15 dollar part before I put it in because my tcu was filled with trans fluid do to itworking its way through the harness. No shifting issues though.
Below is a pic of how much oil was in the tcu
That whole package cost me 1250 dollars

Went ahead and put the summer tires on yesterday.
Went to a couple different places to get some prices for taking winter tires off and summers put on.
discount tire $150
tires plus $90
firestone $55
So I went to firestone where zippy the pin head put my tires on, quite impressive watching this considering his pants were falling off.
I told the manager make sure they put the tires on right because the rims are staggered, the 295s go on the 9 inch rim.
"But these are 18 inch rims?"
"don't worry we're professionals I'll make sure we get it right."
well they get my wheels on and I notice one of the rear tires has some pretty excessive bulge so I say, you put the wrong tire on this rim.
"no we put the wider tires in the rear"
then I say, yeah but the rim width is different for this wheel
"manufacturers make all the rims the same size"
words exchanged
"well they are already on there"
Long story short, I had them take the wheels off and show them how you read the rim size.
They fixed the issue at end of the day
rant over....
Front 265 40 18
rear 295 35 18
cuntinentals dws
pictures don't do it justice

I was wondering why snow was suddenly in the forecast again!

You should have contacted me. My pin heads at least have the fear of me to motivate them from screwing up.

What does your shop charge to mount tires if I bring the wheels/tires to you? Don't forget the WB discount.
