Replaced a fender liner on the Legacy. The old one came out easily, but it was a struggle to get the new one in the right spot and align the pin holes.
I’m getting too old for some jobs at floor level.

Today was a busy day with my rides. Took my IS300 for the new OBDII e-test, passed with flying colors both at home and the shop, though the $39 hurt a bit. The odometer is proudly sitting at 251,800 and she's still running strong. As for my GS400, gave her some love with an Amsoil oil change, 5W30, and an Ea oil filter. Also swapped out the inner lens bulbs with LED ones, now they match my HIDs perfectly. Small upgrades, big satisfaction!

Where do you need a OBDII e-test?

Hello, this time I bought a new audio system for my BMW. My old speakers stopped working after the windows in the car were not fully closed and it started raining.

Reminds me to check the fender and front bumper on my aunt's 4Runner. A dog crossed the road out of nowhere and she hit a fence. We might get a new set of fender flares and see if the front bumper can be repaired.

Took the Camaro, and the kid Vette, to Oblivion...theme this year was 80's wedding. As usual, fantastic event with lots to see and do outside of just cars. Scavenger hunt for the kids, vintage candy, arcade, etc.

I have not had the Pontiac for years now unfortunately. Someone hit the Elantra's front fender last year and gave us a small pay out (about half what he promised but better than nothing I guess) making it fit budget wise.
