Spent the WHOLE DAY buffing the car (rotary buffer), nothing heavy just some Mquires(sp?) Ultimate compound, got all the fine **** off that washing just wouldn't do, as as some fine scuffs and swirl marks, I didn't think white paint would look so good!!!

one side was covered in rail dust I think they call it? im sure thats not what it is anymore after 4 years but thats what comes up in google lol but now its a nice deep white

Today, I went to the salvage yard and found an HHR shift boot for an automatic. I had to cut the shifter trim plate to fit the boot into it but I think it turned out well!

Swapped in my Eibach Pro-Kit Springs. Feels nice on the lowered stance, but a tiny pull to the right, alignment tomorrow morning.

Polished the wheels, but the rains are coming, so the wash/wax/detail will have to wait for another day.

Installed StopTech Sport Slotted Rotors and Hawk HPS on the front of my car. I can still stop so I guess I did it right. Haha!

Reopened my retros to get a better level and saw that one projector wasnt fixed well, so refixed it. Ordered some xenondepot extreme HID for my headlight and Kensun HID for my fog light.

I used a clay bar to remove a bunch of bugs & tar from the front bumper/hood/rocker moldings/rear lip. Then I reapplied sealant.
