So what have I done since the site went down? Hmm .. let's see. Quite a few things actually.
Got new lug nuts for the new wheels, installed a new valve cover, got my passenger side door fixed from a huge dent I got in a parking lot, and washed it again Pics of nuts included, and valve cover will be installed tomorrow. Found a guy who does powdercoating locally and he only charged me $25 for the coating!! Did a fantastic job too.

I'm still planning out my snow tire purchase but I need to order them within the next week so I can get them mounted before it snows.
Funny to think that it can snow within the month yet it was 86F today! ha

1) Five spoke rims are teh sex!!
2) These are actual black wheels as opposed to gunmetal
3) The spokes extend to the end of the rim so they look pretty big for 17"
4) Did I mention fewer spokes being teh sex?
5) Chrome lip is on the inside and looks pee-yump!! while rollin on the highway
6) Fewer spokes FTW

But yea, winter prep is definitely on it's way for me too. I just checked up on my winter tires & took them for some extra air. Ordered some new windshield nozzles too for my stock hood cuz I'm sick of the **** stream of the stock nozzles. Got some Tribute ones instead so hopefully they do a better job of covering the windshield during the winter.
Last thing for winter prep .. undercoating.

I rollled the Pro back a little in the garage (my gf parked in there last night while I was getting new tires installed and an alignment on the Speed. She parked too close to the front...women!). Nothing else as I am trying to get the rest of my house trim painted. Have to go back up shortly to put on a second coat on what I did today.
