A few weeks ago (well more than a few) I had to fill the coolant res twice within a week. No issues since. This is how the aux rads look (wagners going in!). They seem to be leaky or leaked, should I just install new rads with the Wagners? (driver side doesn't look as bad..)

I would replace both without question.

Those could benefit from repair or change yes. The ones on my blue beast are leaking under pressure enough to require a top up of a 1/2 litre every week. Simply haven't had the time to repair things and since it's not leaking onto the floor or overheating have procrastinated to date.
