Night Lights

Finally got a round to taking some night shots of the BBQ. I was too lazy to get the tripod out so they are blurry. This shows the three LEDs under the seated counter, and the two under the standup bar.

This shows the one under the end counter, and also the cool blue lights on the grill and side burner.

Seated counter closeup....

This gives a better view of the whole island.

Overall the lights add to "cool factor", cost nothing to run, and were very easy to install.

Clean Car

So inspiration struck and I cleaned, and waxed my car. I don't remember when the car was last waxed (to be honest, I am not sure it has ever been waxed). It literally looks like a completely different car. I was so impressed I went out in search of some good spots for photos. Here's what I got.....

Obviously the rear brakes still need painting, which will happen as soon as the paint gets delivered. I am also thinking it may need to be lowered, although I will see what it looks like when I get the new wheels on.

From the back it looks OK, and with the 19" wheels and larger tires (295 vs the current 265) it should look a little more aggressive. Still not sure about a fixed spoiler. They have some pretty cool ones available, but that means getting stuff painted.

Next up will be the rear brakes, then the replacement rear window.

Done w Kitchen, onto the Car

Time to get the car fixed up. It is looking pretty poor right now. The back window (lame plastic thing) is finally cracked so I can't take it to the car wash, which means it doesn't get cleaned all that often.....

First step is painting the brake calipers. So far I have just done the front ones. They look OK if you don't get too close.
