i may need your fabrication expertise once again
plus it was fun hangin out, workin on the cars shootin the ****
I still want to color match my headlights like the vettes do.
lol it will look pretty good on your car to cause i saw it on a members car and theirs was red it looks sweet. and for the head lights if you want it to match 100% to you body color I'd get the 6or8 oz. can from gm, or go some where they can match your car color and put in a spray can. unless a shade or two off doesnt bother you.hey Derek we should meet up and hangout this weekend, maybe clean up the cars? i suck so bad at detailing and my paint looks like **** right now i could use a lot of pointers on how to clean up my paint and make it look glassy again. I also want to check out your front grill. btw did you move yet?

yea, i checked it up and down like 5 times to make sure. I got really really lucky. the piston ring held it in there really really tight. Probably wouldn't have lasted much longer before the real damage would have happened.
dude you got super super lucky, that could of been catastrophic. man if that would of broke off, you would of most likely been buying a new block and head. its a good thing curt called that, and you parked it and stopped driving it when you did.

well i can't take off work until the 2nd week in july, and even then, its not guarenteed that i'm going to be able to get off.
Since I have all the parts, i figured i'd work at it little by little until you have a free sat or sunday, because those are really the only days that i will have free (unless it rains all day one day during the week)
