Car is back from the body shop with the dent fixed and new paint on the hood. Got some PDR done at the same time. Missed driving it.

Puddinboo, had a feeling youd be on the outpost. I just got an alignment done, put new sylvania silverstar reverse light bulbs, little brighter then factory but not bright enough so il be picking up some 1156 LED bulbs tonight and probably get a set for the taillights. I also changed out the plugs and put in NGK iridiums and cleaned the CCV (which needs to be replaced soon). Im going to swap out the bulbs in the PIAAs for LEDs all well.
