Shade2012 · 03-14-2014, 10:21 AM

Took the car to the shop yesterday to do some tune ups. We use a dealer about 30 minutes away who does really good work and we havent had any problems with.

Anyway, I got the rear diff fluid changed, spark plugs changed, transmission fluid and filter changed. Set me back about $500. Ouch. But they did tell me there was a lot of gunk built up in the rear end. The main reason I did it was to know for a fact when all of it has been done.

So this last week I've done almost all of the tune up things besides fuel filter and o2 sensors. Am I forgetting anything else?

you had a lot of gunk built up in your rear end.

that is all

Shade2012 · 03-16-2014, 07:23 PM

Took Neela out to the park with my girlfriend. Heres a couple pictures. The car gets so damn dirty so quick.

She would kill me if she saw this, but here is the three main girls in my life.

And of course today with the ****ty weather.

Forgot to mention my parents bought me new floor mats from American Muscle for my birthday. I love them so far. I'll get up better pictures when it isnt so sunny out. Also, two other shots showing the detailing I did on it.

Still getting better than the truck!

I got around 250 miles per tank after all of the maintenance was done.

Yeah, thats if I keep my damn lead foot out of the throttle. I just love the way she sounds.

I realized today I have not owned a quiet vehicle, ever.

Maybe the new pics make it look better than it is, or maybe the original pics made it looks worse than it was, but regardless: this car looks very clean, and originally looked like a bucket of crap. Your efforts in cleaning it up have obviously paid off!

Thanks man! Its nice hearing things like that and knowing all my hard work on detailing makes a noticeable difference to someone.

Next thing done to the car will be the o2 sensor getting replaced and then window tint. These clear windows are killing me, but it looks better than the bubbled sht that was on there.

xUnderCoverHoBo · 03-17-2014, 08:47 PM

What % tint?

Shade2012 · 03-17-2014, 08:53 PM

5% back three windows and 20% up front. Possibly a windshield strip a couple inches down. Nothing too big.

Thats the tint a I had on my truck and I loved it.
