Oh it is coming along. i'v found a few cars and have called on them, but just not ready to pull the trigger quite yet. I am coming back on Feb 5th and having my sound system removed. This week I am going over to the FirstGear garage place and pulling my y pipe for Peng. Hopefully i'll get the spacer, grounding kit, and polished plenum off this week as well. Then the car will be ready to roll.

After that I'll probably stick it up for sale and see if I get any nibbles. More than likely I'll just trade it in for whatever I buy if they give me a good enough price for it.

I am hoping to be in a new car by the end of March. So look for updates until then. I'd like to get my car sold before I put any more miles on it. A weekend home is around 500miles round trip, so it adds up quickly.

Just stay tuned. I am for real this time and the car IS actually getting sold so I'll have something new for our spring GTG.

Aren't you all going to miss G though??

I will Car has been everywhere with me and was my pride and joy for the past few years. I get to emotionally attached to my vehicles lol





BTW if anyone is interested in having their cars detailed for spring, I am available for 2 stage polishes, a sealant and a coating of quality wax. I also do interiors.

It works best if you can bring the car to me, but If the car is in storage, i can come do it in your own garage (as long as it is heated)

Pricing is very competitive and will definitely be cheaper than pretty much every place around. If you are interested, shoot me a PM with info on what you want done and on what kind of vehicle.

Thanks all. Heres a few pics of cars I'v done.

Haha, thats messed up! I'm taking the night off. I've been kicking my butt running the last few days and thought it would be a good night for a well deserved rest. Plus I dont know if losing 5 pounds in a week and a half is really healthy or not LOL.

I usually go twice a day. Once during work where I do elevated push-ups, sit-ups, and run 2miles, then I go back at night and lift. Cept tonight I'm thinking of not going, just got back from driving all day so I really dont feel like going anywhere.

Well, it's gonna be fixed...the only question is if I want to have it repainted or...(gulp) attempt the spray myself. Honestly, I don't think it could be that hard as long as you get a good paint and prep well. And besides...won't it be BA if someone in the group can do paint well Worse comes to worse, I waste 100 bucks on paint and have to bring it in to another place to repaint...if it looks good, I save 300-400

Lance, maybe next month I can bring my car to your garage and take off the rear and get that fiberglass rip patched. You/Nick/Nate have glass experience right?

HAHA very funny Peng!! ...but yeah, about the glass, we could definitely do that. Glassing isn't even that bad when it comes to patching a crack. The hardest thing to do is stretch cloth into a position you want something formed. For example a sub box or speaker pod.

For a patch all you need is a kittyhair sheet & resin, and vvvwala! Sand it down once hardened after a few coats of resin, and finish it off w/ some good 'ol bondo.

Haha, I did 16 miles from Sunday to Tuesday. Going to go back tonight for another 6 or so tonight...hopefully get some weights in too. I'm startin the year off right, especially now that I'm not wasting any time and I'm working a bit less. Christmas was good to me so I'm cuttin back some
Btw, I did some searching this morning and I can snag the axleback Megan Exhaust for 295 with free shipping. Everything else I found was 340 with shipping. Just debating on whether I wanna complete the exhaust, or stick with the mid pipe for now. The price is tempting and its easy enough I can do it on my own.
