- Replaced front pads with ceramics
- Installed 8mm front spacers
- Removed roof rails

Huge thanks to Mrbmwx5 for his thread. I spent an hour in lowes last night before I found his thread on my phone with the plug sizes. They had the EXACT quantity I needed. Little silicone and we were all done. I'll get some pics up when the fin snow stops.

Replaced spark plugs. I have no idea how long they've been in there for but you know they're long overdue for replacement when one of the ground tips is fused to the electrode tip.

Got Style 63's w/new Diamaris and installed the Stormwiper rear window wiper for the updated look. Now all I have to do is get rid of my 57's.

Changed the oil and sent the old sample to Blackstone labs!

Bought some car detail clay some of the lube for it and some ironX to clean some of the skirting

Installed new sway bar end links, still getting front-end clunks. I'm pretty certain it's mostly coming from the steering u-joint, but it still sounds like it is also coming from around the wheels/suspension (happens while turning the wheel usually).

Still getting some slight vibrations while driving, checked the rear suspension parts when I was installing the 20mm spacers the other day and the guide links are definitely shot.

I also blew air down the sunroof drain openings today since water has been dripping from the overhead unit sometimes when it rains.
