got the black Mayas...what a freaking ordeal ;)

ok so this thread is worthless without pics but my car is dirty and even if it wasnt i havent had a free moment yet anyways.


So my day consisted of Matt calling and waking me up at 11a then showering and heading over to the bank then to his place. Well the drive through on the bank was closed so i spent 40min in line to get the cash. Then I proceeded to Matt's place where I drive up and see his bumper less car jacked up. His new bumper is sick!! as are his new wheels (but mine are better ) Anyways moving ahead, after shooting the **** with him for a little while i met Chuck/Gilley at the worst car show in history at Circuit City and followed them back to Gilley's place so i could steal Chuck's jack, Gilley's breakerbar and sockets. Then i went home with the intention to be back in 1hr with the equipment and for them to see the wheels on my car. Well i get home jack up the rears and put the wheels on but then realize the jack wont fit under the car for the front but luckily my roommate has ramps so i drove a little up those and was able to use the jack. Then after throwing on the front left i realize the 21mm socket wont fit in the lug hole due to the thick powder coat. So I call Matt and he says i need 19mm....so i borrow my roommates car again and goto RZmotoring and buy new lugs and new wheel locks since I might have rounded off my old wheellock key about 30min prior. Well i finally get back home and get the fronts on by 5:15p just in time to shower and head to the boat.

Thats my story...I'll wash the car tomorrow evening and take some pics for u guys.

I wondered what the hell happened to you... Bring my jack back today so I can see your wheels too.

I wondered what happened to you too. I hoped the car didn't fall on you.

That 21mm socket barely fits in my Mayas, so I got the small lugs too.

The centers are still silver. I didn't have those done. I thought it looked better that way

All you need is a breaker bar and a torque wrench.

By the way Sean, the jack really doesn't fit under his car and he's on H-Tech's... it's the strangest thing.
