    After 7 weeks of ownership.

    The car has new pads and rotors. New oil. New window tint so all 5 windows match. I have a full size ZHP spare now instead of a donut. The front marker lenses were filled in and the front bumper resprayed. I replaced the old worn shift knob. The old tarnished side markers were replaced with ones that are actually clear.I replaced my broken driver side window switch. I replaced the under hood insulation because the old one was dry rotted so bad. And the least favorite thing I've done so far is put a front plate bracket on. I was pulled over a few weeks ago after 5 years of cars with no front plates. Luckily, he just gave me a warning as long as I put a front plate on.
    Still to come are Umnitza FX retrofit xenons, I'm still looking for some winter tires. I've got a few ideas for the interior, and I'm going to order some 19s.

    Nice dude. How much is the Umnitza kit? I am considering sending my headlights to Lightwerkz for a very similar mod.

    I bought the FX xenons, with Orion angel eyes and all the goodies. Total was 775. They build them when ordered, and I've been waiting a couple weeks now so I expect them any time now.

    That sounds like a win. Please writeup a full review on these after install. Thanks Wes.

    Lighting is a subject around here where we need to learn all we can. I have Zkw's and need to handle that situation.

    I will. I'm actually going to be doing a pretty detail before and after, and possibly take some DIY pics too. I'm just surprised how long it's taken to get them. As I mentioned, their built to order, and apparently, the curing process is pretty elaborate.

    Very nice job, thus far. I've owned mine for about six weeks and did a full cooling system refresh, new spark plugs, new cabin filter, new air filter, icv clean, oil change, rear diff fluid change and tranny fluid change.

    Owned mine for 1 month and so far I replaced the leaking oil filter housing gasket, belts, idler pulley, plastic water pump pulley (swapped out to aluminum), LED's in the interior and tinted the front windshield. On the "to-do-list" is Stewart water pump, spark plugs, radiator hoses, expansion tank, oil change and CCV replacement. Waiting for cooler temps out here to take on the project.
