Looks good Tech!

Sadly, I haven't gotten a chance to do anything to any car this weekend. It's been all yard work for me. [8D]

WTF?
Nothing was damaged or hurt in the process of doing these things.
The vent was a spare I had laying around.
It can easily be fixed in about 15 Miutes.

I drove the heck out of it!

I was down at my cabin in the Lake of the Ozarks. If you can find Stover, Missouri on a map and look a tad to the West you will find Highway 135 going North. Follow that until you until you find Route M and follow it to Route V. At over 80 it is a ball except for the one - down hill, 45°, off camber -turn just before you get to V road on M road. I have learned about that one, don't touch the brakes and the camber sorts itself out just after the apex. At that point you can nail it!

If I ever get caught I'm likely going to jail but this road is seldom traveled and even less seldom patrolled. I can feel young and immortal.

P.S. Other than that my son put on his new drilled front rotors and new pads on his '96. That was only a few phone calls.

In general, it needs repairs . That is what I mean.

World Trade Federations?

- If you're referring to the front bumper, not to worry it will be repaired/replaced.
- If you're referring to the ash tray, not to worry it still slides as smooth as silk.
- If you're referring to the number of changes under the ash tray, not to worry some more will be added soon.
- If you're referring to the floor vacuum in the background, not to worry the filter would be replaced soon.
- If you're referring to the trash bin that is lying on its side, not to worry it will be upright by the next collection date by local Waste Management Systems.
- If you're referring to the basket ball goal post, I'm sorry but it would take me a bit longer to come up with the latest, long-awaited version of Suggested Scenario[8D].

What else do you see beside the front bumper that needs repair?
Maybe you are seeing something Im not.
I have a new dash pad going in there soon doing a few final details on it before installing it.
I also have to get 2 dark B-pillar panels to replace mine from when the SRS seatbelts went off and cracked the panels.
