Installed some Z4M FCABs, New steering coupler, And UUC poly RTABs today! Car feels nice and planted now!

How many miles on the steering coupler, and how worn was it?
Enforcer
Crap, should of stated that in my post. I'm at 111k currently and I had maybe an inch and a half or so of play in the steering wheel. Looking at the actually coupler itself, the rubber was really soft and plyable, also had lots of play between the "pins" going through the rubber. I definitely suggest replacing it if you have more than 100k! I didn't expect much of a different but man it sure does feel
A lot better!

They come out fairly easy, got them out with a plastic trim tool. Do be careful with the edge closes to the back, the part that says Harmon Kardon. That part easily comes apart from the rest of the grill as it is barely held together by a couple of plastic welds. I had to goop glue one corner back together after it came apart during removal.

+1. They tend to be brittle.

"ZHP is a garbage option anyway- just some cosmetic upgrades with a different cam and diff to claw back some of the performance lost fitting those hideous and heavy wheels. Any 330 with a 3.46 diff will smoke a ZHP every time. The whole Mafia thing reeks of childish behavior." - anonymous

Agree, they are out there cooking in the sun under that back window. Happy I was able to get mine out and refurb them. $8 can of spray paint is a lot cheaper than 2 new ones at $100 total....

Took inventory of my detailing kit and organized my kit for the upcoming Spring 2016 season. Both cars are due for a good detail
Got everything packed...will need to order more Pinnacle Sovereign wax
These are set aside for engine bay/wheel cleaning duties...
I'm ready to start detailing both cars in a few weeks

I also applied my XPEL headlight film to my new ZHP headlight lens I got from your group buy so when I start my paint correction detail on the ZHP this spring, I will swap out headlight lens... should make a huge difference in looks when I get done!
