Good place to store our crapuras! We'll get it in shape.

It's a hell of a lot better than leaving it outside all winter, that's for sure.

Why are your shelves all bare?
And is the propane for a heater? Can you used that in enclosed spaces?

What looks better? The headlights?

Dang that's a lot of questions bruh haha Yes I was referring to the new yellow fogs, I thought they might look cheesy but I actually like them. Yes, it is a propane heater and it leaves very little odor unlike a kerosene heater, making it indoor friendly. As far as the shelves go, the old man that used to own the house had a bottle and can collection. The shelves are useless because they are very shallow and not tall enough for what Id like to use them for. I plan to eventually take them out and put up some paneling.

Prepping to paint valve covers


Decided to take off valve covers. I like the factory look but these were just too far stained I think best bet is to paint them silver.

Old 4 lug rearend out of the notch. Gotta tear down and prep new rearend for paint. New rearend is a 95 so it’s got 5lug ,lower gear for boost, and rear discs ftw

Im hoping to have new rearend torn down and prepped for paint this weekend. And I am so ready for the spring!!!! My friend Chris-Beanstune on here is making me a 4inch intake for the TL which is coming along really nicely. Unfortunately I will not have money for the rest of the new wheels so I will be just replacing rubber on the waffles for now.

oh so now I'm posting updates on your car? Geez.

started getting his 4" intake mocked up. Blox filter, spectre velocity stack. Waiting on the 2ft of 4" straight aluminum pipe I ordered to get it before I finalize fitment and have it welded up. Prpbably have a coupler on the side of the battery to make it 2 piece rather than the one piece I made for my car due to how it sits in the fender area.

I just realized you've got a Type S A-spec kit on your TL. Not sure how the diffuser would look though...I honestly think it works well with the Base A-spec rear lip because of that dark gray plastic piece in the middle. Post up pics when it comes in!

Right! I stand corrected! What I meant was more of Type S kit in general. Only the Base A-spec kit has the grey plastic piece in the middle where the Type S has the honeycomb mesh...

I put a IS250 Rear Diffuser on mine. Looks good, but I don't think I took any pictures. There are many others that have done it.

Finished polishing?
I think that was a good option...I did high temp paint and even with good prep it started to bubble after a while.
