Last night I changed the stock air filters with K&N's (They were disgusting) and replaced my cabin air filter. I was wondering why my AC and Heater werent blowing that hard and as soon as I popped the pannel off, my freshly vaccumed floor was covered in leaves and dirt. The filter was horrible. That panel is a PITA to get back on too, those wires kept getting pinched but I didnt even know they were there!! Total install of both in case someone is wondering ever.... ~15 min. with grabbing tools....and getting stuck. The Heater is like a tornado now and I dont fell any difference from the K&N's but hopefully Ill see a minor one at the pumps when I fill up.

wow...well as a fellow crossfire owner i really hate that you guys got ripped off this guy im prasing.....but i would say the products i ordered from him were really good made, the rear spoiler i bought from him (that he color matched and painted for me) was amazing great material and the paint came out great.

the side skirts he is offering on his website do look great aswell, its a great look, im definatly interested in them.
but i will be cautious from now on thanks guys...

In your experience with this product, do you think it would be effective in repairing scratches from "keying"? Someone thought it a good idea to scratch up my car They keyed the area on the doors just below the windows. Thankfully it didn't go thru to the metal. I was gonna go to the "cars and coffee" this morning, but I don't want to take my car when she's not in pristine condition. Any suggestions would be appreciated - thanx

Attempted for the second time to fix my leaking windshield fluid tank, maybe this time will be the charm.
Also got my MB engine cover and after some 'remodeling', got it installed :

Gave her a much belated and much needed thorough cleaning inside and out. Polished the intake and cleaned/oiled the air filters.

Then taught my buddy's (moved to Iowa) son who goes to school here how to change the rotors and pads on a 1999 BMW (E36) 325i. Then how to bed the pads.

All in all, a productive day.

Took off my spoiler - cleaning up the rust on the under-side of it
Using the PRO15 rust treatment system - I'm scared to look under my door weather stripping !!

I bought my Crossfire 5 months ago today - and she's not just a car - she's an obsession!

I installed the next hot product for lowered Crossfires. Mikes adjustable rear sway bar links. My first impression is ...... good gosh man! Why didn't anyone think of these earlier! Mike, one day I hope to shake your hand.

Took off cover to show the car to a friend,
Trickle charged the battery,
Topped off the fuel tank,
Checked oil, cleaned a little in engine bay,
Took stickers off the engine cover,
Started engine, ran 10 mins,
Opened the hood to 90 degrees, 1st time....
Cover on.

Still shopping for tires online and of course surfin' CrossfireForum.org!

Fixed the seat heaters on both seats, they stopped working about 3 years ago so I followed the thread about repairing seat heaters and they work great. Found a website for the repair kits at $65.00 per seat.

Uh ohhh... they are finally done!!!!!!
Finished in a semi-gloss/matte black to blend in with the interior a little, These custom fiberglass kick panels are ready for install! Each one has a clarion speaker with a tweeter in the center (same as what is in my doors) and powered by the 2ch 650w amp in my trunk which use to power my subs. It is suprising but I will still have foot room with them installed in the car

I installed some Audi style led strips on my headlights. They have progressive built in turn signals too. LED eyelid lights installed in the headlights. Washed her and cleaned the engine bay. I'm trying to find stuff to keep me busy on my week off; maybe I'll paint the brake calipers red next.
