Looking good - need to get my LBB back into good shape. Too many rock chips and swirls from winter.

Looking very pretty! I gotta get my car dialed-in at some point. It's not to bad, a bit swirled, so I just hide it for now with wax. It seems that there's a stray cat in my building's underground garage that has taken a liking to my car - no sense in correcting the paint if it's just gonna get scratched again. Will take care of it after moving out.
That sucks... good luck with the sale!
I'm going to be installing my camber plates + DIY alignment tomorrow, so I swung by Crappy Tire to rent a spring compressor, and picked up a small tube of marine grease. So I re-greased my new (to me) used camber plates:
Cleaned bearings:
Re-greased (the actual balls & cage were also greased before reassembly, just didn’t want to get my phone messy):
When I first bought them there was a small hint of "crunchiness" in the bearing, which I initially attributed to dirt embedded within the old grease. But to be honest, I didn’t feel a difference – the bearings do rotate smoothly, the only “crunchiness” is audible. Not sure what it is, but all the parts look okay, and I think it should be fine ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
