Installed a new leather shift boot and knob, made me realize how nasty my interior has gotten. Since the car is parked for winter I'm going to give it a good interior scrub.

3000's don't really need bigger brakes. They need good pads, and an 800lb diet.
Never looked into an LED retrofit in the headlights. Ive talked with FloridaVR4 about doing an LED tail swap that diffuses across a panel so that the light pattern is still stock, but light output is brighter and requires less amp draw. Let me know how that works out.
Wouldn't hurt if they had come with a working ABS pump. That said, better fluid and compound goes a long ways towards making up with the weight.
Or better yet, no ABS pump.
The led bulbs I put in my tail lights are a direct drop in. No hot spots, they look stock just a tiny bit brighter and respond faster when I press the brakes. I am very happy. They were $32 for 4. I just ordered 4 turn signal bulbs of the same design, but a 1156 socket instead of the 1157 for the brake light socket from the same seller. I bought a led turn signal relay, but I may have that damn solid state controller :/.
Agreed. My hawk pads and 400'ish diet works well. Stock pads would smoke and turn to mush after one hard stop from a tuning pull. I could see some use on a car that regularly hits the road course hard, but really can't see the need on a street car even driven hard in the turns.
