Due to me not being able to find my wife’s second license plate….. the youngest is now having to take her drivers test in the truck
I am nervous about the parallel parking and my wheels
She’s good, hopefully she stays calm and does what’s been practiced in the Bronco Sport

If you have time, might fit some curb feelers for the occasion.

She aced the test
First try, no curbs
She’s stoked

So after two years the rear emblem has faded….. time to redo it

It’s currently drying, will put it on tonight after we get back home
Def wished Ford did the black appearance package emblems like this

It’s just Niteshades spray tint so super easy…..

Well it ended up darker than I wanted
Instead of looking like black chrome it just looks black….. which is fine I guess

Washed both HPRs today

Finally got around to correcting the wheel weights to make them less noticeable to no one but me
Looks more matchy in person

Your attention to detail is what makes your vehicles stand out. I have the original stock rims on my Maverick and I keep the lug nuts clean. People think the truck is brand new.

Sometimes I wish I could just leave things alone
I’d have a lot more money for sure

I've got a 65 to 69 California style VW bug with built engine on my vision board. When the vision comes true, I will be spending like a fiend and going to car shows again!

Semi big update…. Well big in that I’ve been wanting to do this for like 2 years

Needed to add sound damping to the roof for a long time (roof separated from the support in one spot…. Guessing too much bass?)
So I figured while the headliner is down/out I might as well change it to black (because I keep getting the dumb thing dirty)
While in there I decided to see why my check Kia homelink mirror was only half working (also it was very loose I thought it was defective so yeah I’m dumb)

Sicne I have the week off and the weather is nice I got them all knocked out AND even set up my garage audio system (a bunch of hand me downs)

Feel free to ask questions

Interesting. I figured you'd need to remove more seats to get it out. You removed just the passenger seat? Was it a tight fit getting it out and back in?

I removed both front seats eventually
Also would have been a good idea to remove the console (not sure what all that entails so I didn’t)
