Installed some front sensors. I haven't wired them but I did the hardest part, mounting them without drilling into the bumper and not being in a position where it takes away from the front looks of the LS. I am pleased with the outcome, they are barely noticeable plus are almost hidden due to the top of the bumper opening covering them up if you're looking at them while standing.
What did you do to your LS today?

Replaced degas bottle, upper radiator hose, thermostat cover, and plastic piece that goes to the fuel pump. Also bought a cooling system pressure tester to find any other leaks. So far its not overheating anymore.

Alax are you using different fog lights. they look nice
Yeah, 30-40 bucks on ebay from some local shop. I might replace the buzzer with an LED or just add an LED to the buzzer, but its somewhat loud an annoying or maybe I'll just muffle it a bit.
The lse bumper uses foglight that mount behind the bumper, not in front like the regular bumper does. It uses some brackets behind the bumper so due to the intercooler piping, the brackets and fog lights had to be taken out to allow for room. There was no room behind the bumper for anything now so I had to get some the fit in front of the bumper to avoid just running without fog lights and having the bumper look off. These were the most shallow I could find that had a round back to them to match the lse fog light hole.
Pretty much. No that I've ever ran into a parking stop and wrecked my bumper, since I'm lowered, but its a cool addition.

wonder if it could be relayed to where it activates a camera up front...Hmmm
Yeah. You would want it to turn on when the sensors activate?
I have a VSS relay that will activate when you are within certain mph. I plan on having it set to 5mph or less for the front sensors. Also, I was planning on having the retractable front plates, that I will someday finish, be on the same circuit so it retracts if I'm parking, going over speeds bumps, or the car is off.

Just installed new clock spring, that was painless. Then installed 5000k hid's, super excited how far this car has come since i purchased it a month ago little by little im getting this car back to something to be proud of, previous owners neglected the living hell out of this car.
Did brakes/rotors all around today thanks to my buddy helping / showing me how. Used r1 rotors and ebc redstuff pads. I'd also like to thank Autozone for loaning me the tool for the rear pistons.. Oreilly's didn't have it.

Plasti dipped the plastic rocker pieces around the bottom of the LS. Made a big difference from the greyish color that they were.
