I found my car under all that salt. 2 bucket wash while it was sunny and relatively warmish. Doorsills, trunk lid, hood + minor clay barring to get rid of some krown overspray.

Swapped brake pads to corksport's and did the regular brake service.
Too bad I didn't catch ya there.Quote:

Went to Streetsville Coin Wash and spent 4 minutes blasting the dirt off my car. :)
My fronts were getting down there, so knew I'd have to replace them soon. Had hawk hps pads on my old car and wasn't impressed at all. The corksports were just as cheap and getting good reviews so figured worth a shot, if they sucked I would be out less than $150 and just get a set of mazda ones again.Quote:

They are absolutely silent, haven't had any noise out of them. The other big thing is they're advertised to dust less than OEMs but we'll see once summer comes around and I'm back on rims. All and all very little compromise (the bit less bite) for a daily driver pad.
What did I do to my car today?
I drove it home from the dealership :D :D :D
Congratulations! What did you get?Quote:

This is what the old one looked like after 42,000km:

This is what they roughly look like new (didn't take a pic of the new one I put in):

Ya eh? I definitely do some expressway driving but I wouldn't say regularly. Last time I was on there was tuesday night lol. Either you and I have impeccable timing of being on the expressway at the same time or i have a doppelgänger:sQuote:
