    Nice! What grit did use? UV clearcoat off the shelf?

    Thanks, 400,800,1200,2000 then 2500. Then rubbing compound, cleaned and meguiars headlight coating. The 2500 was probably overkill.

    After three years of no A/C I finally got around to replacing my condenser LOL Yeah I’m kind of slow the last few years, not to mention with plenty of other vehicles to drive (and upkeep) I’m not exactly in a hurry to spend time and money like I used to.. But ice cold again.

    Also got tired of hearing the wife nagging to roll her window down for her as her switch hasn’t worked in like a year. So cleaned the contacts as well.

    Hello everybody...


    I did not "do" anything to my 25K '04 DTR today but I thought a lot about something I will do soon.
    I want to put diamondback redline nittos on my marauder (will have the look of my GTOs/Corvettes in the 60's/70's...always liked that look) but am still puzzled about what sizes to buy.
    I want to keep the stock wheels...and I do not want any problems with traction control codes or otherwise...I read that some members have 255/45/18 on the front instead of the 235/50/18 and others have either 265/50/18 or 295/45/18 instead of the 245/55/18. I would like the larger sizes of course but am concerned about my wife driving the car at times and a warning light or code light comes on the dash...she would be most upset.
    So I have not made any concrete decisions yet...any further suggestions.


    Thanks for always having great information and advice when I needed it over the years.

    I had just replaced the windshield wiper linkage assembly that's attached to the lower cowl (6w7z-17566-ba) & replaced the upper cowl grill (6w7z-5402228-aa) that had been cracked & weathered on the MM. I ordered the parts on TascaParts.com
