    Black out my front end!

    I would also add it depends on what spray you use. I can purchase trim spray from my local auto paint store. The can comes with a different nozzle. The paint seems to come out finer, different spray pattern, dries faster and is more user friendly than the rustoleum type paint rattle cans from...

    Spare Tire

    Did my 3000 mile trip to Florida and back with a full size duplicate "wheel" and tire but locally I use the OEM spare. Living in the NY/NJ metro area I don't need to travel so far for my needs. I can deal with the 50 MPH restriction on the spare on local terrain but I95 and the supposed "70"...

    Limited Stained Wheels

    I use polishing compound after trying a few different other "lighter" polishes and such. If none of those products are satisfactory I go to the rubbing compound. I start with the least abrasive and work my way up. https://mothers.com/products/california-gold®-pure-polish...

    Anyone opt for the bench seat in the front instead of captain chairs?

    Bench for me, knee room, feel less confined, 3 couples vs 2 1/2, increased odds for a designated driver. Options stay open for companionship. And I prefer the look vs a "****pit". Bench console has plenty of room for my driving needs. Also prefer the cloth. My 1990 Celica, 2001 Dodge Ram...

    Check your spare tire lately?

    I keep my vehicles for the long haul, still have my 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 and the spare has deteriorated beyond a useable condition. The spare on my 2019 has been touched up with spray paint previously and is in need for another refresh.
