Washed her up and put a Domo-kun plush in the front seat cause I think it looks funny.

I had the car tinted today with 50% Llumar on everything but the windshield. While it was being worked on I gave the BMW a little love by washing it and removing the cone residue on the right side of the car from the autocross school I went to last month.

I fabricated a front plate holder today. It only cost me $265.



$5 for the steel stock and a couple of bolts, and $260 for the Makita 18v driver drill, keyless chuck, and cobalt drill bit set. I've been wanting a good cordless driver for a while though

Oil change day! These cars are soo much nicer ro drive with fresh oil in them. Didn't notice it as much with my older cars, but this is a noticeable difference in response and definitely smoothness.
