My First Mark Viii !!!!!!!

If the headlight is really bad actual sanding is probably going to be the only thing to bring it back completely. I had to start with 400 grit just to get them clean again... they were bad.

:W to :V nice gen 2........so when you switch to the 10 spokes, what you doing with the rims that are on it now? my cuz lives in Seattle so no need to ship ;)
 
well.... I was thinking about selling,
But I may keep them and throw snow tires on them for that week of snow we get once a year :rolleyes:
 
Also a question on sensor lowering
Is it easy?
And if I take it somewhere for someone else to do it are they going to look at me like im nuts? lol

When I first bought it, it was all the way down but man it looked cool
 
Sensor lowering is easy... but it has a tendency of taking a weak bag (yours have a small leak) and killing them...

Dont do that to ten spokes if they are in good shape..sell them and get a set of snowflakes for winter.
I will give you a $100 bucks for them ;) :D

what size are the rims, and if abe is right and it is redmond, that is actually exactly where my cuz lives. just let me know
 
rims are 17"
Redmon is about 40 minutes from where I live

And why do u say mine has a small leak?
 
If the car drops ever while it is sitting turned off (Overnight) you have a leak... the air had to go somewhere....

My Mark has been sitting since October and hasn't dropped at all since then...
 
Ah, a misunderstanding
I said when I bought it, it was on the ground but that was because the air system was shot.
$1300. later and I no longer have that problem :)
 
^I see... well then you shouldn't have any problems for a number of years, especially if OEM components were used.
 
You should be good for 10 years if all OEM parts were used... that is THE way to go if you can afford it. I'd highly highly recommend getting a spider valve from Eddie to help keep your brand new air ride in tip top shape.

The sooner you can do it the less moisture will be able to fill the system.

Cool another Mark VIII owner who always wanted one. Thats the same story I have. I would post pics of my 93 that I just got, if I could figure out how to, it only had 72800 on the clock when I got it. I love the car to death so far!!! Like a childhood dream come true!!! hahaha
