What did you do to your Mirage today?

[MCMfan92]

Holy cow! That's a ton of upgrades in such short notice! LOL

I need tint. Mine's a CVT so i have the upgraded Mitsu shift knob.

I had my armrest in at the dealer when I bought new. I'd like all weather mats and lowering springs/sway bars.

Also, I got a dash cover, too. Fits super well (surprisingly for amazon) and keeps the glare off the front glass.

EDIT:

I also forgot to add I have some chrome/gunmetal MB wheels I snagged off of my Hyundai when it went to the scrapyard. 14x4.5 I believe, and wrapped in 175/70r14 Hankook Optimos.

Took advantage of the wash bay at work. Sealant I use is Griot's 3in1 ceramic

That orange one above sure looks clean

I touched up this ugly strapping tape residue, cotton rag with a teaspoon of vegetable oil absorbed in, scrubbed right off. I took no specific before picture so this'll suffice.

It's only clean because you don't see the driver side nose lol. I'll have to remember that trick! Cleaned up nice!!!

I just ordered them and they will be here Friday! Thanks for all the info!

Did you get these in? Just seeing how your install went!

They came in, but I've been lazy, it's super hot out, and when it's not hot, it's thunderstorm crazy! Hopefully I will get them on this evening or tomorrow.

However, I did get my dash cover in and installed last night, and my hitch should be here Wed. I need to start taking pics of everything!

Oh yeah, my spare key, one with the transponder, but not the buttons, was delivered yesterday. I need to go get that cut and then program it.

Sweeeeeet!

Did you use the Velcro pads with your dash mat? I did not.

I did use the velcro, but wasn't super impressed with the adhesive on it. I will let it bake in the sun a few days and then see if the velcro is even necessary. I only used it because some parts of the cover didn't lay quite flat as I would have liked. I have some high strength velcro laying around that I will use if needed.

As for the cover, I am pretty impressed with the craftsmanship! I bought the Dashdesigns brand one, as sort of a tryout, to see whether I want to shell out for their seatcovers. I absolutely will be ordering their seatcovers, when I have the extra funds.

Beautiful. I got the one on amazon from XIANGFA. It doesn't sit quite flat either, but its way better than it was after a couple weeks. I may wash it to try and get some of the stiffness out. My adhesive sucked too, i stripped all my dash protectant and it still wouldn't stick.

I'll have to check out the seat covers!

A few people in this forum have the seat covers- https://mirageforum.com/forum/showth...ew-seat-covers

They are pretty expensive, but everything I have seen rates them as great quality.
