Fresh painted rear bumper cover

Same for the front one

Sprayed the grill, it’s a signature thing!

Bob’s bow tie, lives on!

Today , when I picked up Sweetie at the hospital, I noticed that familiar order of fuel, on the drivers side. Later in the day I went out to pick up prescriptions and a girl in the parking lot asked me if I had forgotten to put the fuel cap on , she could smell gas.
Nothing dripping but a definite order near the drivers side rear tire.
On the way home that P0455 cel code came up . I think we found that leak , the vapour line has pin holes in it, up under that aluminum insulation wrap.
Si , a new set of lines are ordered this time the flexible nylon tube.
May least this time it’s still warm and dry outside

Yeah, replacing both lines with nylon is the way to go... The shop that did mine have a bender for that stuff and did a factory style replacement from bulk tube. They do a lot of them around here with the salt and all during the winter.

SS non Brembo caliper bracket

The Cardone remanufactured parts arrived

These are remanufactured, the one side was $16.00 the other $35.00, on Amazon, with Prime free next day shipping

I’m sending them out for Black powdercoat anyways.

They are not shiny and new like the GM new ones at the dealership, which are $101.00 each and not available.
