Get home, spend some time with the family, and tinker with the car. I was thinking about new CA's, but they looked good, I think I just need to replace the bushings (way cheaper too, but not sure if it's worth the hassle, any advice?), TB (will be my first time getting that deep into my car, so I'm a little nervous...) and outer CV's. Right now, sitting in my closet patiently waiting for me to get home is my boost gauge (first one was defective, so they sent me a new one while I was home on leave back in Feb.) an APR turbo inlet pipe, and a Power Gasket intake mani gasket (saw it on ECS and figured, why not, sounds good in theory). I still need to get a test pipe and ESC Tuning N75 valve, which I will probably order next week. And I'm always looking for some nice but inexpensive wheels and suspension. Oh, I also got some of that black dye stuff from ECS Tuning for the plastic parts of my car that have faded over time. I'm hoping it works like it says it should...

That pretty much wraps up my summer... how about you?

Plans for Summer:
Im off for summer in 2 days(taking finals mon and tues day then done) then i can start to work with my dad. in 2 weeks of working ill be able to lower my car and get my summer wheels on. also this summer i want to replace my front lip with the stock valence and also get some replacement front grilles. thats about it i think i was debating painting the lowers or not but after looking at "James Himself" car over on fourtitude i think the stock black lowers look good. and maybe some one piece headlights if not this summer eventually.
so heres how i want mine to sit this summer(minus the wheels)

It's possible if I do or don't sell the car, I "might" be getting a pair of AMGs for cheap so then these will go.
