Wiper blades. What the heck happened to the quality of wiper blades?! They don't last anytime anymore. I'm trying Trico Neoform blades this time out. Have tried Bosch and Michelin and both were abysmal.

I changed mine so many times, and they all suck. drivers side, close to the tip of the blade, doesn't wipe anything almost. Always leaves a streak about 3-4" thick.
I don't think it's the wipers anymore, I think it's the windshield, can't be that they all do the same thing.
 
So I've had my fx for about 7 years now I owned it for about 3 then gave it to my sister
she recently bought a new car and Was going to sell it but I didn't think it was worth selling so into kit back and it was suppose to be my dog transporter (we got a Dogo and a Pitbull).

she didn't take the best care of it so it was quite dirty on the inside so I ripped it apart and steam cleaned it then got the seats reupholstered. Patched the exhaust did a full tune up (spark plugs, filters, front rear brakes, new winters ). Got it all certified road worth. But then little things started to bother me so I went and replaced:
tints
faded mouldings r now wrapped with a vinyl
new hid bulbs
led fogs
led drl
all interior LEDs
double din
kicker amp subs
new cargo floor with a dog crate bolted down
weapon r intake
plenume spacer
compustar two way
window visors
found an awesome deal on new model fx oem rims for the summer
brand new pilot s2 all four corners
buddy is installing led floor lights up front

this is where it's getting out of hand now cause the car again was suppose to by my dog carrier for our psa training lol ....
a friend convinced me to buy his vortech v2 set up off his 350z. And i did lol so when I'm done with the audio it'll be going to get the sc fitted. While I was researching the kit I started to see deals on bbk and normally when I mod a car my first mods or coilovers/breaks/intake. Orignally I was going to buy a set of m6 brembo gt 380 but was having a hard time finding the parts to make it work. So I bought the Akebono kit from conceptz performance and from their site it says that it should all bolt up and all I'll need is the rear knuckles no adapter I'm not sure about that so I'm still looking for the adapters just incase.

I use to run wheel spacers/ bolt adapters to use my old set of asanti rims their 22s but now I'm not really going for that look so they'll be for sale. I also have a new set of 22 asanti that were off a buddies m 45 he's pushing me to rock them but I don't really want that look so most likely they will be for sale as well.

Looking into dragons front stb/rad bar/ lower bar as well

last thing is suspension, im pretty much waiting to see a good deal to pop up either springs or coilovers r fine I'm way over my budget already lol.
