today i picked up some steelies for my civic since i didnt have a fullset for my winter driving, now i just need to shop for some winter tires for them and also get my extra center caps for them and then repaint them.
good deal for only 20bucks. i felt like a robbed him so i gave him 40bucks and he gave me a rear bumper cover cool guy. so when ever i get my rear lip kit ill try to mold it together to look like 1 piece.
3 of the wheels have the center caps so i think ill keep the raw/ with center caps look. so i bought another 3 off ebay for 19bucks shiped to me.

gave my car a quick wash along with cleaning the windows, wax the black trims, cleaned the rims, shine the tires, vacum the interior, and detailed the interior. after that i did the same thing for my girlfriend's 2001 toyota celica, which was twice as dirty as my car

Today I flushed and changed my clutch fluid. I used Prestone Synthetic DOT3 Brake Fluid. The fluid that was in there before was BLACK. LOL. Now it's a nice clear, and my clutch pedal has a little more resistance.

I also degreased my engine bay.

I hand washed and waxed the car. That Turtle Wax Ice stuff is awesome, btw. I also decided that I was tired of the paint flaking off of my windshield wiper arms, so I took them off, prepped them, and repainted them in Krylon flat black. I also did my sister's wiper arms because her car was parked beside mine and hers needed it too.

I replaced my valve cover bolt grommets. Those things are a bitch to get off the bolts. Had to put the bolt in a vice and yank the grommet until it popped off.

Also, not really something done to my car, but I cleaned out/organized my toolbox and my box of OEM parts that I have replaced with aftermarket stuff

Yeah, I had to cut the old rubber grommets from the bolts with an Exacto knife and spray the new grommets with silicone lubricant to get them onto the bolts. That required an unexpected huge effort. Did you also replace the spark plug seals? Those ain't easy either.
