Detailed Image was having their annual DI Detailing Day 2013 photo contest. The contest was to submit the best photo of your car after it has been detailed preferably using their products. This was a fairly easy contest for me because the Challenger get’s pretty much detailed each week. I submitted the clay bar and […] READ
After having the Challenger just over one year I’ve started to notice some road rash on the front fenders. The wide sticky Eagle F1 tires tend to pickup and fling debris and now I have a few good paint chips. Looking over forums and taking to other Challenger owners an easy fix are splash guards. […] READ
Getting off the freeway I passed a vehicle on the side of the road with a tow truck. I slowed down and proceeded safely around them. Once past I continued as normal to the stop light at the end of the exit when I then noticed a piece of plastic in the road. Thinking nothing […] READ
After much research and forum discussion I finally order the Arrington Performance Air-Oil Separator “aka Catch Can” (API-CCBLB1). After receiving the Catch Can it appeared some of the parts where missing but looking closer I realized some of the screws where hidden inside some of the other parts. Directions where very easy to understand although […] READ

What better way to personalize my Challenger than custom license plates from the Department of Motor Vehicles. DMV makes it very easy to order custom plates online and I was lucky enough to get plates with my short […] READ
I finally pulled the trigger, and got the guts, to order and install an official Mopar Cold Air Intake (77070044). Upon receiving the intake I unpacked the items and laid them out on the work bench to confirm everything was shipped. It came with photograph/written directions that was very easy to understand and follow although […] READ
With stormy weather comes unsafe conditions. So, I take note and drive a little slower and further away from other cars. I was on my way to work minding my own business driving around 50 miles per hour and 3-4 car lengths behind the car in front of me. All of a sudden the car […] READ
With fall in Sacramento comes “The Fog”. Finally got a chance to test out the Challenger’s fog lights and they worked well. The true test will be when its pitch black on a delta road with fog thick as can be. The other thing I like about these cars are the new standards for HID […] READ
First I washed the car with a citrus soap in warm water to remove any of the heavy contaminates then fully dried. Once done I pulled the car into the garage and started the tedious clay bar process by doing a small section at a time using a lubricant. After, I backed the car out […] READ
