Yeah I plan to pick up a patch, just hoping it will hold. It's real close to the sidewall.

I don't do spares, so until I get the tire repaired/replaced, I'm rocking stock wheels.

You know you could of just patched it yourself or taken the rim/tire to have it patched and saved yourself all that work?

I doubt a shop will patch it, they'll say it's too close to the sidewall. So my only option is patching it myself, but I don't have a patch kit handy, and I didn't want to be driving any farther on a nearly flat tire.
Anyway, takes maybe 20 minutes to change the wheels over.

Bought the stuff to put a lip on my car

Hmmm...what were you using prior to it. I've been looking for a different product.

That's what I used, pretty easy though.



Just some push in panel retainer type things from AutoZone. Doesn't look great up close, but still better than 3 holes in the bumper lol. Might end up painting them gloss black sometime.

Nice using your resources! But you do know you can get those retainer clips in a gloss right

Thought about washing it....but didn't.

2 weeks worth of gravel road driving, wet dew every morning and sprinkle rain drops make for a very very nasty looking car.









Me gives no cares tho

Had to drive off the road to avoid getting hit head on. Morons flying down a small country road don't know what their side is.

Your car is very dirty then...... you really shouldn't promote whoring, its bad for her self confidence XP

I guess I don't know what a whore is, unless I get stealth's point.

It's called a show n go license plate holder lol. It folds down for when you're parked (or in my case it's always down lol) but flips up for when you get pulled over for not having a front plate!

Well mother****er.

Also, any Comp G or GXP peeps hear a noise when you put it in M when you're standing still? Kinda sounds like a vacuum leak type noise

....I definitely hear a sound. Its cause higher line pressure in 1st when stopped

Took the wheels off to investigate a weird "clunking" sound coming from the driverside front. Went over everything with a torque wrench and discovered the swaybar busing bolt was stripped to **** somehow... Then discovered my super supposed-to-be awesome torque wrench doesnt seem to indicate proper torque settings(the clicky sound) below 40ftlbs, almost stripped a strut mount bolt. Did a quick oilchange and spark plug replacement during wonderful hours of sunshine, then the only cloud in the area pissed monsoon level rain on me for what seemed like eternity(5 minutes) during a day with zero percent chance of rain. Go nature!

Oh anyone know if napa/autozone/orileys sells swaybar bushing bolts off hand? Thanks!

You should be able to just hand them the bolt and they will find it for you
