And i wouldn't change a thing about it.

I just got my new K&N air filter in the mail today; so i gutted my air box and installed it. What a difference! It is so loud now, i open up the throttle now just to hear it. The car's quicker too especially with throttle response.

Just thought i'd throw that out there. Now i've got some pics.

I used some scratch X, NXT 2.0, and followed up with Gold class the next day. Used that Eagle one spray i had lying around for the tires.
(ignore the rust holes..... maybe they'll go away)

I learned a new trick yesterday. i had some plastX that i got for the headlight, and i started working on it by sanding with 600, 1000, and 2000 then using the plastX but i couldn't get it to be as clear as the other one. I read the bottle again and it says to use it with a foam applicator......
foam huh?
i dug around in my box of toys and found my powerball. I figured it was worth a shot.
well long story short, it came out really well. pix

Has anybody else tried this? I bet this works just as good as the tool that comes with the headlight restoration kit from meg's. I just saved like 12 bucks.

thanks for the comment.
if the bottle did scratch the paint, then it wasn't very noticeable; i didn't notice any.

it was doing that to me too. i thought i was the only one who had that problem. I don't know why it's not working. I'm just gonna remove the video then. It was just a bottle of mountain dew sliding off the hood after placing it at the top.
