I was still getting misgendered as recently as 2-3 months ago. As of today I think I've passed the hardest test of appearing female I can think of. My brakes came off completely and I had to change them, not wanting my nice clothes to get dirty I wore some old basket ball shorts and a tank top. While I was covered in grease, oil, sweat and a few tears I still got gendered female. I can't think of another masculine activity or attire I could really partake in. Also I'm really glad that some of the guys in the apartments came and helped me because I was making a few mistakes including when I was done needing to use emergency brake to not back into a parked car.

Thats great. 

Strange how when you don't care if you pass, you do.

I think that you've prolly also gained some respect from the guys in your apartment too. Not many woman would even attempt to try that. I'm only brave enough to change a tire, the other stuff I'd be completely lost. And that's also super awesome.

congrats

Thank you guys. I looked like a mess afterwards too I had black stuff up my legs and arms, on my face my hair was all over. One of the guys said I must have been wiping my face a lot because of how much got on it. Then I went back to Autozone like that to get my exchange back because they said my old brakes had a life time guarantee and still no gender problems. I was wearing guys shorts and tank too. Still kinda baffled.
