YAY!!! Finally. I am so happy for you. I had to go through a little drama too when I got Bella Sera. It makes driving them home (finally) from the dealership THAT MUCH SWEETER!

Ok, i may be crazy, but its 4:19AM and i've just come back from a big ride around. It started off as a Going around the block, then a just to the red light, "then just" by my moms house, "then just" to US-1, "then just" one more light, "then just" one more turn, finally "then just" home from almost 5miles away. I DIDN'T STALL!!!
I guess small trips like this is good because i felt shaky at first, but as the "then justs" went on, i felt more confident! Then i got home! And noticed something... I have a bulb kinda out!  The front driver-side turn signal isn't glowing like the passenger side is, but it does light up when i turn on the signals. I'm gonna go with not changing the bulb because it does work. Any ideas?OH! And i have some saggy too. Not the headliner, but just the part on the actual sunroof. Any fabric glue recommendations?

The bulb in the blinker lights are two filament bulbs. So sounds like one of the filaments is out. I would still replace it, can't be more than a few dollars. PLUS, if it's anything like mine, at this age, the orange on the bulb is starting to peel and eventually the lights will just be white. Mine are lightly amberish (i didn't replace them), but I do plan on replacing mine with LED's. But I would just replace it, just incase a cop has a tizzy and decides to get you in trouble for not having a front marker light working. And I would assume, if one filament is out, the other isn't far behind.

I'll go price them at Advance Auto Parts today then. I'm broke, but not that broke! Besides, a ticket for a bulb is really not worth it and would make me broke-er-er Thanks!

Friday Morning bump. No pictures at the moment, but in a few hours.
I have an appointment at 9am EDT to get window Tints installed! I'm not sure if i picked 20% or 30% because he told me the % first and i picked the shade and i forgot the %. But if i recall correctly, I think i picked the exact same tint that I had on old Accord. He gave me a STEAL too! $80 for ALL the windows and he threw in the Visor free! I'm about to take pictures now for Before, then after later. A busy day today so not a WHOLE lot of photos, but just a few. Those come later. That concludes the Friday Morning bump!

haha it does! Gosh I gotta change my avatar! lol That's when I first got Probie 2 years ago. So much has changed!
Reflex Silver is THE best. BTW, you can get a touch up pen at Walmart for like $9 or something. It's actually Reflex Silver. They now come with manufacturer and name on the little pens. I bought mine when I first got the car, and I have yet to use it. lol Guess I could touch up my bumper where the rock chips have killed it. Might be worth getting for the future.
