S550
Texas

Hi all,
I just learned about and joined this forum today. I've had one of my 2007 S550's since 2008. Bought another 2007 S550 in 2010. Still have both of them and really like them. The first one I bought has about 123K miles and the 2nd one has about 70K miles. I've decided to go through them and fix all the little things and bring them back to nearly new condition. This site looks like a great resource for my new little projects!

Here's a list of some of the projects for the first car:
1) Headliner on the sunshade needs to be replaced.
2) Evap canister needs to be replaced
3) Wiper motor needs to be replaced
4) Passenger side skirt (rocker panel) needs to be replaced.
5) Front left lower control arm needs to be replaced.
6) Refurbish rims
7) Small dents & scratch removal
8) Front console bluetooth connector needs to be tightened
9) Front bumper cover needs to be repainted

I haven't started the list for the 2nd car yet.

I'm gonna need some guidance, so I'm very glad for this forum!
