Re: What did you do to your rig today?
I installed a set of factory fogs I scored brand new in the box for
$50. Looks way better than the silly plastic plugs! Crappy picture but I was too lazy to open the garage door.

Re: What did you do to your rig today?
Changed the oil as I always do when a school change looms (for those that missed a lot of school, that would be every three months. For Simon, who's best three years of his life were grade 10, that means that a break or a start happens to school stuff ).
Man, was it sludgy. Thick. I'm trying to think back to December and wonder if I might have put in a detergent of some sort... And also thinking I will change it again in about two weeks or so. It was bloody-hell bad. Goopy. Weird.

As for the sludge in the oil, was the motor warmed up before you changed the oil? I've had thick oil come out before, on a cold day, when I didn't run the vehicle long enough.

Re: What did you do to your rig today?
Oh yeah - she was nice and warm. I dunno. I'm not concerned or anything - it was just thick.
That's why we change the oil on a regular basis! I'd hate to be one of those guys who just leaves it, only to find next July or whenever that the oil isn't oiling...

Shoe-horned the X into the garage - roof rack removed, and tires dropped to 10psi did the trick!
Now I can start working on the steering install!

Picked it up from the body shop. I'm happy with how it turned out.

I was also wondering if he kept it the same colour, or went with a different colour then white?
