What Do I Need?
Well since I'm taking my baby into the shop... I'm going to ask what I need (in terms of parts). Mainly what does a 60k service require? And I just bought my baby 3 months ago, so I'm trying to get her running as fresh as I can.

So far what I got on my list of things to buy are:
  • Spark Plugs (Bosch Platinum +2's) Any ideas if I should buy another kind?
  • Transmission Fluid
  • Transmission Filter
  • Brakes (Any recommendations?)
  • Brake Fluid
  • Air Filter (Either Green Filters or K&N... any thoughts?)
  • Fuel Filter (Does brand matter?)
  • Set of Tires (Kumho Ecsta ASX's)

So anything I'm missing? Also do you guys think I should buy Spark Plug wires? I have 57k on my ride. Thanks for the insight guys!!! Appreciate it!

If you're asking Jamesirspendalot for opinions on what to do with your car, you'd better have deep pockets, lol...
