That looks really sweet. Looks like you polished the face of the spokes, but the outter ring of the rim is still gunmetal? Is this right?

Anyway, it looks really hot. I'd love to see those in the summer some time.

Unfortunately it looks like the guy I am buying them off is gone on vacation to Puerto Rico before he was able to take the springs off the car...

Looks like I won't be getting them for another few weeks. Not all is lost though, as I had no intention to put them on until some time in march anyway.

If anyone is looking to replace their stock bulbs, and not wanting to cough out 2 bills on HID's i'd recammend getting some Nokia bulbs, i ordered some the other week and they came yesterday. They are pretty ******* bright, i got the Artic blue (stage 2) 8500k 110w120w, i was parked beside my friend in his accord with silver stars and my lights were clearly brighter and lit further. I think they were $35 shipped.

.................so yeah, my car is in the shop. Was driving it and all of the sudden the oil pressure light came on for a few seconds then shut off again. Later that day when I got gas, I checked the oil and there was none on the stick at all. So I went to CDN Tire and put 2L of Mobil1 5w30 in, still nothing on the stick. Went to Orion, they said the crank seal blew. They have had my car since Saturday and said it will be ready Tuesday, now Thursday.

Nope, no loaner. I didn't ask for one cause originally I was going out of town until Monday night and I borrowed my dad's van for that. They said it would be ready on Tuesday for sure. So I called Monday to check on the progress and they said the part won't come until Wednesday and it would be done Thursday. So I didn't get one, but starting to think I will need one if this keeps up for much longer - mom doesn't like having to share her van, lol.

Hispano trust me. just order the bulbs. stock bulbs are 55/65 these are double the wattage (and illegal) and meant for offroad use only. you will like and I want one day. they are like day lighters. I ran 55w/100w H4's in my jeep. they were just awsome.

Well guess I will be getting a oil pressure gauge of some sort with an alarm on it for the pillar pod....LOL

i had some ebay import designs in my pursuit before they were DOT approved but lit worse then stockers, were really blue though. These Nokia's are perfect, i couldn't see cops hassling me at all.

Hmmmm, i bet they broke something else then too. Where do you work at? I'll ask why they don't stock these.

Tint Gb

Contacted Paul today.

We have two dates for five cars each day to be left in the morning and picked up at the end of the day. There is no waiting around for your car guys. Reason being you give him lots of time to get all five done. If there is any reason for him to redo a window he has the time. when he cuts a window he may choose to cut five pieces and do the same window in each car. Were making it easy for him so he is in turn giving us a deal that I will be attempting to get it sweeter for all of us.

currently 165 plus 20 for winshield sunband. PLUS TAX.

the dates are March 27 and march 29.

If you cannot make either date with your car your option is to lay $100 deposit to mark your spot. that is a non refundable deposit. Mark in your name for a date and if you cant make it your $100 has to be there by that date. It can be brought by another person bringing his car already for the GB. If you already know that your going to give a deposit then put your name in on the date your going to give the deposit on and then put deposit behind your name. IE. SSnipes (deposit). I will give you contact info to paul at detail matters to make arrangements with him. His shop is at 755 Wall near piston ring.
