Default Off season upgrades or projects

Now that the driving season is coming to an end in the Northern Hemisphere I thought we could use a thread where everyone can post up their off season plans for their XF's. Here's my list.

- Have my stock wheels curb rash repaired and refinished or
- Buy some aftermarket wheels
- Have my engine cover custom painted
- Ceramic brake pads
- Magnaflow cat back exhaust

Jim, that's just downright....mean.

Finish my 2-gauge pod and install the oil pressure tap and sender for it.

I'd like to do a total repaint but after having this stroke in August, I'm not sure I will be recovered enough by Spring.
