This is how it was a few days ago...

Then this...

This is something I got done today...

Now time to go swap tranmissions, degrease, clean, and sand the block and trans and paint them for the re-install.

Is that wrinkle paint? If so I would love to see it in person to se how it turned out.

you'll be surprised with what I decided to use on the bay... I figured since the car is going to be caged and used on the track a lot, why not try something different for once and use something that is scratch resistant, durable, and the color I wanted in the bay...

Rhino-Liner.

Fixed the AC on BOTH cars!

Checked cabin filter for the Fit. Turned out besides being dirty, the blower had a piece of celophan sucked against it and was killing my air output.

Had the blower motor replaced by Rick, then retrofitted to R134a or whatever and charged. Blows ICE cold now! YAY.

That brush on stuff isn't as durable as you think, its been chipping off my buddies' element for awhile now. Luckily its easy to touch up.
