Never loan tools man lol
Dawn dishwashing liquid will completely strip any wax off of your vehicle.
I detail cars, this is untrue. Ipa wipedown will do better. If a quality sealant was used you may need to use something like carpo eraser. When I tried to remove menzerna powerlock from my car to put on cquartz coating, I had to polish it off with a very mild finishing polish, then Ipa wipedown.

Fixed (most of it anyways) my bouncy ride issue with some Vikings! Installed Steeda bumpstop kit and shock mounts with it also. Then my exhaust arrived and I installed that too :D.

Thanks [MENTION=10926]beefcake[/MENTION] for the dampers and AWE Switchpath!

Got a ticket this morning 56 in a 40. The Officer was nice enough to write it as 51 in a 40. Bloody $150.00

Not only in a crappy mini van, but distracted by kids so barely watching the road. I hear that.

I feel your pain. My r rear took a big chunk of metal in the same spot recently. Only 1K miles on the car, couldn't be fixed. My exhaust fund took the hit.

I was told not to wax my car after the sealant as I used the same one. I wonder which way is right ?

If you are looking for somthing subtle which flows with the lines and balances out the car, you might want to check out the Foose MMD spoiler (pre-painted). I purchased it for my DIB GT and it looks fantastic... like it should have come from the factory. I had the flat (lame) surface spoiler from Ford which really didn't do anything for the car. I would have preferred getting one with spoiler delete but didn't custom order my ride. I was able to use the factory holes for mounting bolts along with the 3m tape. Very happy with it...
Have to give a +1 for the MMD V-series spoiler. I did mine in a contrasting color and it looked fantastic IMO. Not too big, and not too small, just right. The fitment was top notch as well.

I like that spoiler except for the fact they took a chunk out of it right in the middle ... if it was same height all the way I'd buy one.

Removed the sound tube in about 3min. Pull up and yank left and out. Installed the 20mm rear spacers (drilling out the wheels not cutting the studs) and 25mm in front.

Carefull drilling out the wheels. You can really throw them out of balance. I would use a drill press and make sure the measurements are identical with each cut. And if I am being honest I wouldn't go that route at all. It will be much easier to just cut the studs and if you need them longer later, just reinstall some OE studs or ARP.
