Considering its my first time here and I only spent about 3 hours cleaning the car, I think I did great.

Next year's mods are already being planned, lol

So is that it Burton? Your expressing your emotions through your car? That does look really cool.

So yesterday I ordered 1 new tire. Last year I had a large metal object puncture my front tire. Although I had it plugged it still leaks at a slow rate. So I forked up the dough to get another tire. It should be ok as the other front has about 2 to three thousand on it. Not much in my mind. I hate road debris.
It's kind of strange in a way. When I purchased the car the stealership had three new tires on the car and one that had been aged quite a bit. Well that's the tire that took the puncture. Strange things happen.

You waited this long to buy a good new tire? about time eh? But yes, things always have a funny way of working out. Which tire you buy?

You guys have no snow there at all? That's awesome. We're still covered in spots, although, it is melting pretty good. This week should get rid of most of it. FINALLY! lol

well its maybe not as "good" as some of the other pics but its my work and I did this all my self (very first cluster bulb upgrade/change out) and got all the lights in first time around (not sure HOW I pulled this off) but I got every bulb to light first time with out having to flip any of them around, and I have to say WOW what a difference and vast improvement over the stock bulbs!!!

I changed out the turn signals (green) and the gauges (amber)

Weird weather yesterday and this for upcoming week. It really didn't hit mid-40's until the afternoon, so I took advantage and finally washed and blow dried the Mustang. I put another coat of Liguid Glass too.

Although I prefer to spend two straight days cleaning/detailing all the nooks and crannies, I'll probably have to do it in drips and drabs all week in between rain or more agreeable afternoon temps.

This morning's agenda: wheels and tires before the rain.

As soon as it's completely done, expect pics.
