Finally picked up a new rear bumper and got the rear fog and rear sidemarkers in.

Just need to get everything wired up.

uninstalled and removed my low beam hid kit. So it has served me well for 5 years and went through 3 sets of bulbs (TYC H1s, Valeo H7s and Morimoto H1s). Never let me down.

So I have 2 sets of HIDs lying around. Thinking of using one for max's fog lamps.

For those of you who use Mobil1 synthetic, Costco (U.S.) has a $10.00 off coupon valid 'til 11/1 on a case of six 1qt bottles, which comes out to be $26.99.

Applied NuFinish on the whole car. It rained a little tonight and the water beaded up on the whole thing instead of pooling up so now it won't look as bad after it rains.

Then I hit the interior with the shop vac.
Is it just me or does a freshly vacuumed interior make a huge difference??

Where did you get the rear fog? I've been looking for one for my coupe.

Damn that's cheap! Too bad I'm not a Costco member. I usually go to Walmart for my oil since the Mobil 1 5qt jug is about $25 or so compared to about $45 for the same thing at AutoZone.

1) offset and rim width go hand in hand, they are dependent on each other

2) are you asking what the offset is of the stock wheel? If so, I know the stock EX 16's on the coupes is +55. Not sure what the others are, but they all have high offsets. Just take the wheel off, it's stamped on the back of the rim.

Anything lower than +45 and you're gonna rub caliber brackets. Hell, my 17s are +45 and I had to shave a bit, lol.

I was also curious about what the offset of stock EX 16's. Does this apply to all of the EX 16's? (Wanted to know for 01-02 year. -twin spoke-)

So yall use Mobile 1. Is that the brand oil everyone normally uses on their CG? I've been trying to figure out the best brand oil to use. Id never use Penzoil. Used that before and it seemed like it was dark brown before 1000mi came around. I was using Castroil GTX on all the other cars I got. Then I used Mobile 5000 one time. It was ok. But I like to feel how smooth my engine runs after a fresh oil change. And Mobile products have yet to give me that feel.
