TT: Now that I have some time...
I'm going to get the TT straigtened out...
1. Remove the current Miltek exhaust and replace it with a custom fitted one.
2. Have the rear valence repainted again. This will be the third time. This time the issue was that the mis-aligned exhaust, when hot, touched the valence and burnt off the paint! I noticed this after a roadtrip out to Ohio, ouch! My car has been running without a valence for too long.
3. I'm not a painter. So, I'm getting the winter wheels powdercoated. For all the nay-sayers for the black wheels here's my thoughts..
----
I picked up a second set of wheels that had some scrathes and gouges in them to use as winter wheels in place of the bad *** looking steel setup. This is in anticipation of clearence for some Stoptechs in the spring
So, instead of getting them repainted silver, I thought I'd mix up the look for winter making a distiction for summer and winter, plus I think black is tight. Also, peep this...once I don't need to drive the TT in the winter I'll mount some hot tires on them and use them as race wheels.
That's my on topic post to fulfill the quota. Otherwise, the car is wonderful and thankful that cops don't touch the wipers to secure tickets anymore for illegal parking
