    Can that plastic/chrome around the bumpers and trunk be painted?

    I took my 01 LS to a body shop to see about getting that chrome plastic trim that's on the front and back bumpers painted. They said there are oils in the plastic and the paint will flake off, so they refused to paint it. Is this true, or was the job just too small and they didn't feel like...

    Another $1600 in repairs? I have had about enough.

    So I got an est. today from 3 different tranny shops, Lincoln being one of them. I'm looking at $1,600 to get it fixed. It's the solenoids and valve body. This is the second time in as many years that I have had to make a large repair to this car. I swore that I would never buy another...

    "Change AC Filter"...AGAIN? WTF...

    I have never had to change an AC filter before I owned the LS. WTF is the deal here? Every 8-12 months I have to replace the damn thing, can I just ignore the warnings? I don't understand why the LS needs a new filter so much and every other car I have owned doesn't require one once or more per...

    Lincoln LS wiper arms?

    I can't seem to find any arms for my wipers, any ideas? I'm not looking for the blades that can be purchased at wal-mart or any autozone type place. I'm looking for the other part of the wiper. Mine are faded and old, I need some new ones.

    Check tranny light + Switches into gear "E". WTF?

    Anyone have some ideas? I know it needs to get taken in to the shop, but until then, any ideas on what might be the cause? It seems out of the blue, it switches into second gear and wont move from 2nd and the "D5" switches to "E". Even if I put it in reverse, it keeps displaying the E gear. I...

    I give up on the LS, I'm getting a Jag type R

    I *ALMOST* went with a Jag S type instead of the lincoln, but it had a ton of miles so I didnt. I love everything about the jag s-type. My boss owns a '01 Jag XJR and it's nothing short of amazing! It's really fast and really luxurious. I should have gone with the Jag. It's too hard to make...

    Interior Wood Grain, thinking about a project.

    I made a post before about this and I'm starting to get serious about it. I want to swap out all of my interior fake, plastic wood grain, with real wood. I was wondering if anyone here knew much about the interior of the LS and how the parts are attached. For example, on the door's, the...

    I made a cold air intake...kinda. Help ASAP please

    So I bought some alum. tube and ran it from my lower grille up to the area where my K&N intake is. I figured it would work great. But now it seems when I do 60MPH+ and try to hold a steady speed, the car wants to stutter, like it's going to stall out. Is it because too much air is being pushed...

    Just installed K&N & my stainless tube...

    The gas milage in the city went way up. I'm really happy about that. It also makes a great sound now when I floor it. I didnt notice any power gains, just sound and MPG. Also, it doesnt seem to really help much on the interstate, only the city MPG seemed to change.

    Headlights and/or foglights dinged and clouded?

    I work at a cabinet shop, so I have access to spray guns and whatnot. I ordered all new headlights and fog lights housings for my LS off eBay cause mine were in such bad shape from the sun, rocks, and other stuff. So, just as a test, I wet sanded one of my old fog lights down and...

    Supercharger or 2x turbo for LS. Would a local shop be able to do it?

    I am very impatient and want the super charger ASAP. I hear that supercharging the LS is very hard. What if I took it to a performance shop in my local area, you think they would be able to pull this off? I would even accept twin turbo if I couldnt get the super charger. Thanks.
