What did you do to your FX / QX70 today?

Changed my oil cooler gasket and front and rear diff fluid with Mobil 1 75-90w. I bought the car with 30,000 miles and never changed diff oil. I have 108k now, and oil looks pretty darn good for 75k+ miles.
 
Some dude pulled up in Benz next to me today. Told me I have a bent rear sway. Just weird someone telling me that. Said he used to have an FX & loved it. Guess he wasnt GT-Spec'd. Then he got a taste of the Nismo as my lane opened up. Nice to see friendlees out there.
Guy drives a pretty nice benz but still droolz over his past ride :tongue (2):

so was he right?
 
Finally fixed my steering wheel shimmy by replacing all 4 rotors and pads. All 4 rotors were pretty warped, but the rear were much worse than the front. Everything is nice and smooth now.
 
I just wrapped up Project Blackout!
My Holiday task was to black out my interior! Black micro-suede headliner and pillars and I painted the rest - not a light part left inside!!
I always hated the "greige" (gray-beige) portions inside our first-gen black interiors so I went and D-I-Yed it all out to black!
What a laborious and completely satisfying mod I gotta tell ya! My lungs and fingernails are full of overspray and glue but it looks so freakin good!!

Sorry to tease but I will post pics soon! Happy New Year all!!

Good looking wheel. Should be a problem for our cars.What size are you thinking?

Edit: I meant to say that it should NOT be a problem

Just got my girlfriend an 04 FX35 AWD about a month ago.
Replaced the oil cooler gasket and installed the GTSpec under tray.
