I hit a small animal a few weeks ago. The little bastard broke my bumper cover (due in for repair in the next week or two), inner fender, engine splash shield and fog lamp. I replaced all the broken stuff today as well.

Thanks. I used the rustoleum brand. I did 4 lighter coats and a fifth medium coat. It's a perfect match with the radio and HVAC.

Hope you lubed it up with Mobil 1 grease. Guess your supposed to do it every 6 months. I'll be doing it over the winter. Don't over grease though

That's the same ebrake I have, NKG one, for about $40, I'd recommend the MOMO over it though.

Changed my rotors today to fix some steering wheel wobble under high speed braking.

Turned out to have some nicely seized and unevenly worn brake pads.

So full on brake job for my front end today.... yaaay!!

Old on the right. New on the left.
