What did you do to your car today?

Tomorrow, oil change with RP, fuel filter change, grease the end links, give the car a good once over, and install my new fog lamps along with the HID upgrade.

Then Ill hit the local car show in the area and represent like a boss.
 
Play around again with my trans shift schedule since I got the converter schedule set right I believe.

I messed around with the car late last night and it pulls so much harder now.
 
Just got all the money together to buy the Marauder.. Already ordered a JLT intake, flowmaster super 44s, and 2 new headlights. Picking up the car tomorrow!
 
Started mocking up the shorties, found out all my local parts stores closed for the holiday, made 1/4 spacers for the mounts out of some aluminum I had laying around.
Spent 2 hours trying to line up the front bottom LH motor mount got P/Od and then fixed a boat.
Got a greasy hand print on my car cover.
Anybody in the Keys want to swing by and hold a @#$%*!! prybar for about 15 minutes? :mad2:
 
Changed out the front turn signals.

washed the interior and conditioned the leather and dash. changed the oil (RP) and installed my new foglight housing.

just soldered the LED circuit that im installing into the center console. (can start thread if people want to see the process)
 
Installed another DDMtuning hid kit in my Taurus, 5000k in the low beams. Put my old 6000k hid kit in the projector foglamps.

Changed the oil, transmission fluid and greased the front suspension on the Taurus.

Played around again with the MM trans schedule.
 
Emissions Compliance

Having just got the stroker installed in Detroit, with new Crower cams, I now have the month of September to get past the Missouri emissions test to get license plates renewed.
 
With the guidance and assistance of my WONDERFUL bf, Paul/Blackened300a (who did most of the work :D :lovies2:), we gave my car a VERY much needed clay bar, compound and wax.

Here are some before and after pics of my hood...

Drained the coolant, pulled the blower off, installed the FRPP shorties, mocked up the Cobra mid pipes and cut old exhaust off.
Busted my knuckles trying to loosen the U joint bolts to install the Metco driveshaft loop.
Called it a day.
Oh, and mowed my grass 1st.
Gotta love Starbucks!!!

I would of never thought of you owning a Ford Fukus. lol
My 08 Taurus is Ebony black and between washes I use Turtle Wax Black Detailer Spray and it makes the paint pop and shine great. It's nice cause the actual spray is black and helps fill in swirls and fine scratch marks.
