Yeah it is. But our torque stars are clear coated polished aluminum.

I'll have to sand an old one now to confirm. I'd bet that if they have a coating, it wasn't sprayed on. Saying this because if sanding dust is white, thats clear. Maybe some are and some aren't, I do know some look horrible and some are still like new.

I'm going to make a restrictor plate for the radiator for winter time so the car will warn up

Nothing to mine, but told my cousin the other day I'd help him change the trans mount on his gf's 2000 Crapalier.

It started off easy, but the "center bolt" refused to come loose. We ended up having to remove a bunch of other sh!t to get better access, then ended up taking everything to our buddy's shop since he has oxy/acetylene torches to heat the b!tch up.

One bolt delayed us a good 2.5 hours.

So after lots of thought i think i know why my key wont turn, When i took all the pins but one in key cylinder in the past. I think there is not enough pressure to release the key to turn in now.

What can i use to try to pick the lock?

I already have new key cylinder and will change after i get this thing turned.

I have those tails too.
I was planing on tinting mine to fit in a little better.
But looks good to me.
 
Re: What did you do to your Car today? Vol 2.0

Those look better tinted, but IMO they are very ricey. That's just my opinion though, as long as you like them.

Drove to meet aceofspades and see the Panda. Got STBs now front and rear. Gonna paint it white eventually and paint the brackets black. I also need some of the STB studs because one is broken so if anyone has one laying around.

Sad panda

Changed the oil, filled the cooling system, and did the first start up. Ran great, and took it for a 45 minute test drive. No issues at all, this car is so much better than my 02. So much more power too
