Sorry for the long answer - but I thought just saying "no" would be rude

doubtful that I will make it... my sedan is "sick" - literally... as in sitting in garage for 3+ weeks waiting for parts to be black chrome plated... The entire intake (and other stuff) was painted, and I have all that back - but all my plenum bolts are being plated - so until I get those back the car sits. It has taken soooo long to do relatively basic engine cosmetics I hate it! The good thing is I haven’t seen anyone else do what I've done - the bad news is, its' not that big of a deal and definitely not worth the time and effort (or expense) that is has taken.

It's all supposed to be done early this week (they say today, but I know better than to count on that).
Even once I get the stuff thats there now - I still have some other parts to get plated (some custom intake clamps and a heat sinked phenolic instert tbs) - but at least I can put the car together while I wait for those, I have plenty of normal clamps and a regular tbs.
I hate cosmetic mods - it takes so damn long! and is never worth it to me.

Yes I am OCG, I paid my dues, actually double, I just don't make it out much, unlike most, I have a rather demanding career that pays me very well, calling out not an option, my next promotion will most likley double to triple my income I refuse to jepordize that. I also don't put stickers on my car but thats just me, I made it out to the annual though, I will try next month if I am not in Orlando.

A true OCG would have his **** towed to the meet.

This is where I tribute props to Zack with RareJDM and Randy and his R-Rides etc, and even the Team Aarkan guys, Even though everybody is with their own crew and goes their own ways, I admire how these guys run with their Team and I watch and see over the years how they developed, and it's very succesful, much respects. This is what we're all about too.

Damn, that was beautiful bro... No need to refund the money, consider it my contribution to the homies. Your right, that is way too much time, and well beyond my interests. It sounds like fun, but my 70+ hour work week and school won't allow for it, other wise I would pledge. I will look back into it after this next promotion, I go down to 40 hours a week and upgrade to a g37
Community stuff sounds like fun. Best of luck with it, I will try to make it to the next meet.
