Oh yeah that was just because after a weekend of camping and climbing we just wanted to beat the post game traffic because of the tigers game that night. In the long run it probably saved gas mileage over getting stuck in traffic on the freeway in downtown Detroit.

A few pics though I forgot the clear coat and the parts store closed early so I didn't get that done yet but here it is painted so far



And I got bored so I plasti dipped my HVAC knobs just for fun they're still drying but here's a few pics anyway







Btw I'm still going back and forth about a manual swap for my car it'll depend on if I can find the right parts car I think. But it is a pretty straightforward swap just FYI.
