Front and rear Hawk brake pads, oil change and transmission fluid in Royal Purple.. Will shine her up real good Thursday.
For anyone that hasn't.. The difference between stock tranny fluid and RP is like night and day. What felt like shifting through sand at times is now replaced by supreme smoothness.

I did the tranny oil change today with RL and got new kumho's last week. Made sure all my wiring and **** still works on my custom stuff, changed engine oil, thinking about polishing the exhaust. I noticed while waxing today that I had about 15 new chips in the front from driving in the rain on the freeway > Cleaned the rust off the painted calipers/hubs. Now all I need is a new air filter....Somebody told me they had one for like $20, but I can't remember who...
oh yeah

So I finally got around to getting the latest flash and got my motor mounts replaced (holy cow, world of difference), and guess what they pointed out? Seems I've snapped my RB rear sway. Looks like I'll be tossing my OEM one back on for the cruise.
