Yesterday, I decided to try and fix my cars idling problem by cleaning the IAC. One thing turned into another and I ended up taking everything a part and went on a crazy cleaning session. By the time I got everything a part and some of it cleaned, it was dark. I got up this morning and started wokring on it again until dark. I still didn't get everything fixed and cleaned. Working on my spoild brat car is like having a full time job, but instead of getting paid I spend all of my money.

I'm kinda liking the no rocker panel look. What do you guys think about going rocker-less? I'm planning on putting them back on lol, just taking my time.

I cleaned the IAC, cold air intake, cleaned up the engine bay and fixed the battery from sliding around. I took the center console a part and cleaned the carpet. I took the trunk carpet up, cleaned out the spare tire area and pt all that stuff back in properly, then cleaned that carpet. I feel sure theres more I did but I can't remember. Tomorrow I have to fix the steering wheel, fix the center console, fix the door panels, wash/wax/clay bar the paint, and finally change the oil.

I went rockerless liz on my 95. I loved it.

It's definitely growing on me. Did you close the holes where the push pins go in, or is it not important?

That'll be on the top of my to-do list when its all cleaned up haha.

I never bothered to fill them. I never even had the rocker mouldings painted, hence why they never were put on. Cars low enough to not worry about it, to me anyway

i like the rockerless if it wasn't for the fact that you can see the ugly pinch welds.

Thankfully for me on black it was difficult to see.
