It's been a while since a K&N/CEL issue has been reported, but an over oiled filter does get out of their factory every once and a while.

All that being said, you'll love the poly bushings, especially in colder temps where they don't stiffen up and get noisy like the OEM bushings.
Will do. I'm gonna take it on some twisties today to test out both the bushings and the lowering springs and see how the handle. I'l let ya know if I get any CEL's.

Time killing.

installed a rear bumper protector and a ss type rear spoiler today. The spoiler arrived with the wrong contour to the lift gate so it spent a few hours in a very hot tub of water. Fits great now. I removed the three plastic tabs and inserted some rib nuts in their place. It isn't going any place. The old scoot is looking better all the time, saying I got it out of a salvage yard.

Just clicked 100k. Meant to snap a quick pic, but forgot about it and looked down at 100002. Oh well, I'll have to catch it at 200k.

I thought about mine, all sitting over 1,000 miles away, while cruising around Dallas with Michelle and Dusty doing "touristy" things.

Our Canary Yellow Mustang GT Convertible rental car is fun, the V-8 out front makes all the proper noises, and the top is a doddle to operate....but I miss my Chevies.

Heading back to NC at 0945, Texas is fun to visit, the food is amazing, but Carolina is home.
