Very impressed with Skunk2's service. Emailed and called them to say that the LCAs I bought new from an eBay seller was missing the steel mounting brackets needed for the install, they took a look in their warehouse and found a set, shipped to me free of charge for the part and the shipping!

They're black. I thought about looking for a white set (evo's), but those are even harder to find.

Finally ordered myself some proper sealant (and a few other goodies)
CQUK With CarPro Reload (but without reload because it magically disappeared before delivery) and CQDlux.
Should be cool to use.
If I had a car.

As for my goodies, I grabbed some GSC s2 cams, Kiggly beehive springs, retainers, HLA and Supertech valve seals....going to turn the mistubishi into a honda and rev to the moon. I'm at 58,000 miles so I'll be ordering a 60k service kit soon (water pump, belts, tensioner etc) soon. Thinking of painting the valve cover when everything is getting done.

You can get it at walmart for $6 or so.
I grabbed one a few years back, it doesnt sud like the foam guns but its decent for presoak and wash.
Give it a try?

Just got Discount Tire to put on a set of 225/60R16 Ohtsu FP6000 (rebadged Falken Ziex 512 with a different sidewall) , down from crappy grand touring all-season 235/65R16 monster truck tires.
Took a 1hr cruise to Lynnwood and 2hr cruise back home after meeting with a friend. Average speed was around 80mph, my car has never felt so planted and sure-footed. No more vague steering feel or floatiness at highway speeds. Much less understeer and car feels much more confident at its handling limits.
And best of all (minus the crappy CAD), after taxes, installation, and all the other miscellaneous recycling fees, I only paid $327 USD which works out to about $405 CAD which is still a hella great deal.
No longer have monster truck stance, completely ready for coils and slam next week!

^I had the Falken Ziex (the 912s though) on my car when I bought it and I hated it. But then again, it's just an Element so you shouldn't have any issues

But then again, it's just an Element so you shouldn't have any issues | The service attendant tried to sell me the more expensive Falken Pro G4S A/S (Ziex 950) citing its increased treadwear (65k instead of 35k miles) but the tread pattern is more all-season than performance-oriented and non-directional with mini sipes for snow, which honestly I do not need as I rarely do any driving in snow
Ziex 950
