Jacked up my car, and got under it to find the rear main seal is leaking. Topped up a quart of oil, then my grandpa didn't know I did and he adds another 0.6quarts and now I just finished draining it out. Then celebrated with a car wash

Rear, shinyyy Still want some nice aftermarket wheels though



Oh, and went to get a wheel brush from Canadian Tire, came back out to a shopping cart against my car. Knicked part of the door handle bezel, sosad

Edit: why do those pictures make my car look like it's 4x4 status, it's decently dropped

They do take away from the look of the wheel but more importantly, they trap brake dust, grime and moisture and promote corrosion

Finally fixed the HVAC fan/motor unit. It was making obnoxiously unbearable clicking and whirring noises, along with the fan itself cutting in and out. My guess was just dust and particles getting into the motor or the bearings or some sorcery. However when I took it out, it looked rather clean to me.

It was an easy fix, but the unit itself was a bitch to get to. Beneath the glovebox/above the passenger footwell. Unclipped a large black plastic piece, three screws on the unit, while having my head essentially resting on the floormat looking upside down

Clicking noise and low fan speed is gone, but the whirring is still there. Probably going to order a new HVAC fan/motor unit.

put my silver sideskirts on finally (had black and a weird blue/silver shade before) and sanded my plenum on my intake to get prepped for polish.

it sure is a pain in the ass to sand away scratches/casting marks in metal to make it look pretty... but damn, its worth it


thats before polish.. ill get some pics after polish


before matching skirts, u can see the off color

after

Hit and run on my front bumper yesterday afternoon. Asshole scratched it up but luckily it's not too noticeable and I should be able to hide most of it with a decent polish
