Took the wheels off to paint them something a bit less ricey.
Also took off the vinyl wrap. Now I get to fix all of this bullshit.
Discovered a hole pre-drilled through the urethane lip that lines up with this support’s bolt, but the bolt wasn’t long enough. Harbor Freight stainless hardware squared that right up and now the lip is actually attached at the ends. Brilliant.
Checked up on the suspension. Yup, it’s still there.
This is still hanging around, too. Suspension on it has settled a bit more. Not a bad look.
JayhawkJake came buy with the Camero.
I completely ignored all of this bollocks because I really don’t have the motivation to fix my oil drain line.
So many cars...
Rustoleum metallic grey. Gunmetal, basically. Damn nice color.
Shiny.
Whoooo~

Not really needed for just taking wheels on and off, and even if the jack collapsed the brake rotors wouldn’t even touch the ground.

Harbor Freight is a Godsend in a pinch.

On the “yup still there” pic, that sway bar doesn’t look attached.

The gunmetal comes out really well for a rattle-can. I may have to do the same soon.

Your suspension may still be there, but it definitely looks like it is missing a pretty obvious bolt...

Rear sway bar disconnected. Too much oversteer with it hooked up with this spring setup.

It’s not. Got the spring setup from another autocrosser who recommended unhooking the rear sway bar to avoid sudden oversteer

I don’t think you understand how sway bars work

Ah ok. I was wondering if it fell out or something.

Nah, just dialing out oversteer for autocross.
