On another note, ordered some new braided AN6 oil line and finally found some m20x1.5 > -6 AN adapters for the catch can. No more awkward joint half way and much higher quality lines.

Well, if you do it at the right temperature and keep the can in warm water, it goes on smooth. Plastidip has been reformulated like 4 times in the last 10 years. People still think it's the same product from years ago. It's a personal preference thing anyways, just a temporary coat to see how you feel about the colour, even if applied poorly can give you ideas lol.

Tried to get as much done as possible on my 2 days off. Throttle bodies cleaned (while also replacing spark plugs because might as well clean TB's), oil change, front&rear diff fluid change, new tires on 4DRZ wheels that he sold me & put those on for the summer (appreciate the great deal.....and meeting the man himself in person!). Diff fluid was cleaner than I thought (may have been changed at 65k right after I bought the car), but still was some gunk on the magnet. TB's were a lot cleaner for my 1st time cleaning than I expected compared to other pictures I have seen on here. Plugs were all the same color. The bag fluid was much easier to use than the plastic bottles from the stories I have heard.
Unfortunately, there was some casualties in this project, but I try to find a silver lining:
1. both front and rear engine guards are unable to be fully attached due to handful of bolts breaking on both (seen as temporary weight reduction)
1a. I will now be ordering TBW engine cover that I have wanted.

*edited* Also, are rivnuts more permanent vs. being able to remove them easily in the future for pulling off the tray if needed?

I just changed my diff oil (front and back) at 40,00 and was surprised how dark they were and junk. Also changes PS fluid. Cheap insurance to have fresh fluids in the car.

Underestimated how exciting it is to hit this little red button. For anyone on the fence about it...just get one already!
BIG thanks to RMB5190 for help with the install (not to mention turn signals), pretty awesome how supportive this community can be!

That's for your catch-can system? Good looking hardware.

Had some cutouts installed. I'm pretty finicky when I comes to exhausts and some days I don't want to hear anything. So this is perfect for me. What's not perfect? Me leaving the blockoff plates at the shop and they don't open til Monday smh
