I'm now a 1le owner!

Just turned 6,000 pulling into the garage. Thanks again to everyone that helped me in my search for one.

Thanks guys! Can't believe all the attention this car got on just the drive home yesterday. I also see now why so many seem to get speeding tickets with these cars. 80 mph literally feels like 40 mph lol. Absolutely amazing.

Well it's been a busy week with the car. So far I removed and cleaned the wheels/tires and brake calipers while I was at it. Engine compartment wasn't too bad mainly just a light dusting. Anyways i got it cleaned up real nice again The strut tower brace had water spots all over it. A little bit of polish took care of the brace.

Both hood hinges had next to no paint on the outsides which looked horrible. So yesterday I taped the car up really good and had a can of paint made up which btw the guy nailed the color. I spent close to a hour with masking and prep and less than 5 minutes spraying the hinges. Turned out really nice and looks so much better when the hoods open.

Today I claybared about 90% of the car. Seemed to have a lot of rail dust on it or at least I think that's what it was. All I have left is the rear bumper and lower doors on that part. I have hand polished about 75% of the car as well today with 3m polish. This thing is looking absolutely amazing after a little tlc. This agm paint color is stunning to look at. Kudos to the original owner for all the extra film protection he had installed. I've only found a few tiny nicks in the paint.

Hoping to finish the exterior tommorow and then start getting into the center console to replace the yaw sensor to disable the HSA. After I get that done then I'll detail the interior. Front side windows are getting tinted on Wednesday.

Yaw sensor disables your HSA(Health Savings Account)?

Looks great, youll have to start a build thread or something and keep posting pics. Love this color!

Managed to get some time today to knock out the exterior detailing. Also did the sensor swap to disable the hill start assist. Took a little under a hour to do that part. Thank God that's taken care and I now have more control of the car. Huge thanks to those that figured that out and posted threads giving the part # of the sensor and details in how to get to it.
