Well yesterday I had my new General Grabber ATX's installed and after having to take it back for vibration, it now rides great. Today I washed it and then a applied Meguiars Ultimate Black Restorer on my mud flaps, running boards and that piece of gray plastic that goes across the top of the rear bumper. Also put tire shine on the new tires. Then I checked all my fluid levels. Did a little cleanup work around the inside of the jam for the rear hatch and cleaned the rear window inside and out.

Did you install these yourself? Not really into leather in vehicles anymore but this looks good. Is the rear seat leather too? Brand?

Yes, the back matches. I did not install them. I have a business contact that sold me the katzkins at cost and installed them as well.

I pulled the Weathertech mats out and cleaned them thoroughly and since they still looked bad I went against my better judgement and applied Meguires Ultimate Black to the driver's one. It looks 100 percent better but I'll see how slick it turns out to be when I drive it home today. Then I vacuumed the interior pretty good. Then I cleaned all the door jambs and the area around the opening for the doors and the thresholds and stuff so it looks better when you open the doors to get in. That's all I had time for today.

And if you get one of these, you don't even need a ratchet.

Amazon.com: Fumoto Original F-103 with LC-10 Included F-Series Engine Oil Drain Valve, 1 Pack: Automotive

Edit: looking through your history, be sure you order the correct one. That one I posted is for a 4th gen (03-09) V6.

Fortunately I have a V8 that has a dipstick for the transmission, I purchased one of these to do quick 1-2 qt. drain & fills.

I'm always behind on this... changed the gas cap. The original sealed fine but the connection to the lid was broken so I figured why not.

Finally after 7 months of ownership I gave the wheels a decent cleaning. Def still need a brush and I wanna replace them at some point but def a big difference. Not the same wheel but they were equally disgusting looking.

Next projects, update the headlights and find some good replacement for the skid plates.
