Got it smogged. I am always floored by how well it does. In California, the emissions testing is graded on a sliding scale - so a newer car is held to much stricter standards than an older one. I smogged my 2006 Acura today as well - #2100 would have passed even by the standards my 2006 is judged by. All but the 15 MPH NO reading, the D was about 100 PPM too high to pass that by 2006 standards.
Started regraining the car last weekend by hand (120grit). Going to finish her off tomorrow.

I had no significatn impact on the battery and the car started up fine after a long day of doors open with LEDs on.Quote:
