Installed the Attack Blue Air Filter
I got a couple parts in last week including the Attack Blue Air Filter. I ordered it from TKO Performance. I was planning installing the Extreme Online Rear Diffuser fins first, but it was raining and I didn’t have enough room in my garage to work on the rear of the car without moving the front half of it into the rain. So I decided to tackle the air filter first. Here’s a video on how to install it:

Extreme Online Store Splash Guards
I purchased a set of Splash Guards from Extreme Online Store and put them on this weekend. I like how they add just a subtle improvement to the overall looks of the car.
The installation was dead simple. Just remove one screw under the car next to each wheel well. The old splash guards pop out easily. The new ones require just a bit of a closed fish smack on each tab on the splash guard.

Replaced almost all the fluids
I took my car to the dealership for a service that, frankly, everyone should do when they buy a used car. I know the other dealership changed the oil, but I’m pretty sure they didn’t change any of the other fluids. So yesterday, I got the following work done:
- Rear Diff fluid replaced
- Brake fluid replaced
- Fuel Injection System cleaned
They were going to replace the air filter, but called and said they weren’t going to have it until today and I could leave the car overnight. I declined. I wound up ordering an air filter on my own. I’ll talk about that when it comes to my house.
