Welcome to the 100K club!
I installed my chin spoiler, performed the bumper tuck on the rear bumper, identified the cause of my oil leak as a loose oil filter stud and torqued it back to spec.

Drove it for the first time in 2-3 months.
Yesterday I finished installing the KYBs and factory springs, had to replace my front braided brake lines due to rubbing, had the rotors cut, and swapped in a more street friendly brake pad. Satisfied Pro Carbon Ceramic brake pads are rotor eaters and not meant for street use.
Getting an alignment and power brake flush today, then going to bump up the timing for the cooler weather. Then it's back to polishing all the aluminum parts I took off.

MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.
Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.
IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.

Ordered a spare Black grille for my MM.
For the SB ordered a drivers side headlight and blinker assembly to match the smashed one the insurance co. is paying for on the passenger side. Didn't make sense to have new lenses on one side and faded milky on the other.

Willing to meet up half way
I finally got around to mounting my pair of 42 Draft Designs catch cans. It is quite helpful to have a buddy with a speed shop and a machine shop.
They whittled up a pair of brackets to mount the units to the fenderwells, cut the bungs off the cans and welded threaded bungs onto the cans, R&I'd the valve covers, drilled & tapped them for the threaded AN adapters, a relief was also cut for the O ring seals for those adapters.
The PCV was changed out to an inline unit and in now behind the blower, the valve covers got a crinkle coat to match the blower. The hose is XRP, it is designed primarily for fuel on racing applications, while not cheap, it is super flexible, doesn't collapse under vacuum and just looks cool, the bad news, it's $144 a foot.
I picked it up today, and put it away for storage, so I took some quick shots, may do more come spring.
And the pics.......................
I LOVE Jerry's bar, it's my kinda place...........
When you are dead, you don’t know you are dead. It is difficult only for others. It is the same way when you are stupid.
