Well there went yet another Sunday afternoon. I decided since the girlfriend was out of town that I'd try to do the hi/low horn upgrade and finally after about 4 hours of driving back and forth to multiple parts places I got it installed.

Man what a difference it makes.

I finally got my sway bar installed that I bought off of felixr from XD. What a PITA it was though. I had originally tried to do it myself by jacking the car up and using some T-9 degrease/rust remover on the bolts before trying to get 'em off. I managed to get the bolt spinning but I couldn't keep the back of it steady with a 14mm wrench.

Ended up wasting 2 and a half hours trying to get the damned thing off and finally went up to a local gas station shop and had a guy install it in about 5 minutes for $25.

Now the car feels a helluva lot better and I'm loving driving it even more.

dude i spent a WHOLE afternoon trying to get my old one off... still haven't been able to..

Note: do not leave car parts your girl doesn't know about in the trunk of the car....... she'll take it out one day and leave it on a relatives porch.

have you installed the strut bar yet? you'll be much happier with that install.. lol .. one of the easiest installs you can do... but i hardly notice any difference though.. lol

Yea I did get the strut bar installed and it was a piece of cake but like you didn't notice a ton of difference.

Hopefully today when I get the car back from being tinted I'll take a ton more pictures because man oh man has it changed a lot.

There we go, finally got some pictures up of the car after she got tinted. I went with 20% all around and I love how it looks.

Now I just need to start saving up and get some new rims and wheels then I think I may be set.

Yea I love the color of my car, I acutally just noticed today that at some point I got a bit of dirt on the side so I'll probably wash it sometime this weekend but I do love Elantra's in silver.
