Crystal, love the color, looks brand new!

Thanks everyone for the compliments. The wife and I really love this thing and wanted her to look her best.

Will get an intro thread up with everything we've done to it so far up soon... I promise. She still needs some love mechanically... but it's on the list and I already have the parts here... now if I can only find the time. ;

Did an engine flush and dropped oil pan to see if any plastic or metal bits were there. There weren't (yay), but the left over bits from the VCG didn't impress me much. Grrrr.

She's getting a new rear drive shaft today. I pick it up after work, can't wait to see her again. Been apart for almost 2 weeks now....

Josh, good to hear...only that today I had to use the heated steering wheel and heated seats...:D
Don't catch a cold with the AC on haha

Haha seriously. I want a heated steering wheel. At least I have heated seats. The AC will help keep the windows clear when the car is filled with wet snowboard gear this winter.

the heated steering wheel is a must have ,I couldn`t live without it now ,same with heated sits. (I guess I`m a bit spoiled lol)

That is why I have the viper smart start. I just get the whole car nice and toasty before my 5mile drive into work. Plus I like being able to start it any place I am regardless of distance to the X5 :nanana:

Mid week I finally fixed the steering wheel play/clunk/creaking which turned out to be the upper U joint bolt just need tightening. Then this morning (the first coldy we've had in Dallas this year) my battery was dead, so changed that. Fingers crossed nothing else for a while as the battery was $170 :(
