FINALLY have my car back, for good

It's been just over a month of not having it, finally have it back, most of the car got painted and some exterior stuff got fixed. New brake pads/rotors up front and fluid.

Don't have to worry about it going anywhere for a while now.

I've got a page long list of things I have to do to it now Mechanical, electrical, mods

Good for you! I'd be in a padded room having to wait that long with no TL.

Haha...no kidding. My TL is my job. I take my car everywhere my job takes me (which is a lot of traveling). Without my comfy TL, I'd go insane!

Congrats on it finally fixed. Now PICS!!!!

I had it for a few days in between, but was having a problem with the brakes so I don't really co7unt that. I got it back, and was going to take some pictures, but a foot of snow got dumped on us. Cleaned it after that, but nothing would come out nice since the snow was just a huge glare and a bright day to begin with. Soon though, this week I have off from school.

I got mine done someplace, never done them before, and didn't want to take the time to learn right now, though I really wanna do my own pads next time around.

Have you done the tranny screen? I really wanna get that done pretty soon.

Kamlung did a writeup on how to do it, it's like $50 in parts to do, but seems very worth it in the end. One of these days we should chill and do some stuff like that at the same time.
