Finished changing the brakes on the Ion. Got my ECU back from ZZP so just waiting on Trifecta to send me a stock tune so I can unlock the ECU. Got the rims in for the Cobalt on Friday. Tires will come tomorrow. Powder coating sometime this week maybe.

They turned out awesome.
Did the seal have any deformations, obvious damage or what do you think caused the leak?

Seats look nice.

What shop did you use? I've been considering getting covers for mine just to keep the original ones from getting any worse.

I dunno. The car was running fine until it wasn't.
I was driving very conservatively all day today too and it didn't start missing until I was pulling into the garage.

Ended up racing a Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 on the expressway and beating it by a car length. It was a spur of the moment race but was definitely fun. I slowed down when I hit 135 to prepare for traffic. He honked after and went on his way

The real question is if you are certified in posting the .png extension online

Just got the new rims back from powder-coating and was an idiot and didn't check to see of the clearance on the Brembos. Waiting on some 15mm spacers. Didn't realize how chunky Brembo's are.

They just stick out really far. It seems you have to run really weird offsets to fit aftermarket rims to this car. I'll post a pick of what they look like once I get my spacers.
