Cleaned the bugs off the windshield and front again! Almost a 3 or 4 times a week job as I use this car a lot and Louisiana bugs love to commit suicide lots.

screws
Replaced the old T15 screws around the perimeter of the trunk opening with stainless steel: #6 oval head Philips screw, cup washer and fender washer. The old ones were starting to rust a little and the shiny new ones just look better.
Then I went for a drive!

Trying to stop an oil leak at the pan, I tightened all the bat-wing pan bolts and cleaned up the mess.
14 months ago I had new pans and gaskets installed, at a ridiculous cost of course, but right after the 12-month warranty ran out I discovered a new small leak up front and just got worse. We finally had a warm day, so I finally got around to lifting the front end and checking and torquing the bolts. Every bolt needed tightening.

Changed the oil, Transmission fluid and rear differential fluid.
Also installed the skip-shift bypass mod.
Swapped out the DRL's for aftermarket lenses.. the stock ones were cracked by rocks. I like these better anyhow.
