Started working on my own custom trunk partition and tray for behind the seats. Rough idea of what I want to do. Too cheap to buy them, and I'd rather make my own for the fun of it.


Had to head back from Ohio to DC though since my leave was up. My car was absolutely packed to the brim.





My buddies Mustang.




Got my motorcycle parts and helmet back freshly painted.



(Different visors)



Spent the evening putting the bike back together.



And my last project for the car for a while.....

Did you paint your rotors' discs? If so you are just going to gum up your pads by doing that. Not to mention risk not stopping well for a while.

The rotors are from TPS. I got the rotors (TPS Brand), Pads (Stoptech Street) and Stainless lines for under $500. They are Zinc coated, so the black will wear off on the contact area. The zinc coating just makes them not rust.
