Finally got my axle out.
Swapped that out. Then did my front rotors and pads. And an oil change. Productive weekend, despite the fact that it was pouring rain.

Adjusted my throttle cable today. Scumbag Honda for placing it in such an inconvenient location on the Element. Had to take off half the intake and a relocate a bunch of wires to access the throttle cable, not that it was difficult, just a hassle.
No more play in throttle |

Just installed set of K&N High Flow air filters today.
The stock filters + charcoal filter :
K&N filters installed :
Car feels a bit more responsive and a tad louder than before.

Got bored of my Nokya hyper yellow fogs and changed them to hoen xenonmatch. While not quite a perfect HID match, it'll do until I go with HID fogs. |

IIRC damage has to exceed 70% or somewhere around that of the book value for it to be written off
