Finnished installing gc coilovers over my koni shocks.... Then installed 30 mm spacers on the rear and looked like **** ... Not to happy with the ouTcome of the stance with my gc coilovers .... May be my wheels or wasn't able to sit me low enough to achieve more negative camber look .. Now probably learnt that it's my + 35 offset that's messin it up.. New wheels!!!

So its 5:54AM and I just spent about 5hrs at the local self car wash.....

Wash , dry, clay bar, wash, dry, compound, wipe off, wax, wipe off...... Still some swirl marks but much better than before, it's much more shinier and glossy lookin, I'm happy with the outcome.. I'm just not gonna use the brush At the car wash no more and do some more coats of compound next car wash.... I tryed takin piks but they all look the same -_-

You should never ever use those brushes on paint. & stay away from auto car washes. Get some pink dry wax its like medium grit and a buffing pad/ micro towel to take it off

Went to fix a valve cover leak last night, then realized that I stripped the threads on the front driver side valve cover bolt. Anyone have any experience with helicoiles? What size would I need to use to fix the thread?
