Well, just got done mounting my amp int he trunk so no more amp sliding around. Gave a guy a deposit to build my box for my sub yesterday so that should be done in a couple of weeks. I need to wash my car and try to get out some small scratches....I am starting to hate black! Talk to you all later.

Hey you guys, i saw you two (Plantum and xHotekx) trying to get into REDLINE MOTORSPORTS let me know what they tell you. I was thinking about trying but then I decided not to cause they never have anything going on Downriver. I hate driving up there all the time. I did that crap when my ex lived in Farmington Hills and it got old real fast. I can't decide if I want to join a club or not either. Part of me says screw the club scene and just hang with your buddies. Escpecially after seeing some of the clubs and how they act. Well, keep me posted.

I think the better thing would be to try and start a club for anyone. Yeah maybe a 7th Gen. club would be cool but you would have no variety at all in the club. I love all kinds of cars, like this summer I will spend more time at local classic car shows than at import shows but that is just me. My buddy is in Under Ground C.C. and he wanted me to join and I was like no way dude, I am not about to put some big ole' club decal on my back window. I think that just ruins the rides. SPRING IS ALMOST HERE THOUGH!

I am a sissy, a few more degrees warmer until i call it Spring..lol....I washed my car and waxed it today now it is all shiney and I have nowhere to go [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG] Oh well, I need to stay home tonight and pack things up for the move anyway. Redline's banners are alright cause they usually have them on their windshields instead of the whole back window. Just talked to my buddy who live by the 50's McDonalds on Telegraph and I told him to let me know when the cars really start hitting up there so I can go I can't wait! Talk to you all soon

Wasup guys...I'm sooooo gonna get the Magnaflow now...too bad that puts rims on the outs till maybe July...oh well...

I just talked with someone from Redline for awhile....Seems pretty cool...I don't know if I'll actully join...I have no interest in racing my car, just showing, chillin, and meeting fellow peeps...I know alot of u guys think it's far for u...but I'm all the way up at 16 mile...so I'm actually north of the meeting area...I dunno...

Well...gotta get my stuff together and drive home...I think I'll head up woodward on my way home off 696...Be driving north around midnight...Maybe I'll c some of u guys out there...

Glad to hear you went for the Magnaflow Platnumbomb! You will like it. You sound a lot like me with the joining of clubs. I just want to hang out with friends and car people. Sure beats paying a monthly due and having people pressuring you to do stuff to your ride. [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] Well, I am pooped from all the wax on wax off today so I will talk to you all later.

HAVE A HAPPY EASTER!

Hey xHotekx have you seen the white super low Civic cruising around? or the white Accord? I always see these guys on Eureka and at that car wash at Penn. and Fort by Lowes Hardware. They are nice rides! The kid in the Civic seems cocky and the one in the Accord seems nice.

At the Sunoco station in front of Roush Industries? I will have to go look for the Supra. I saw a sweet one this weekend but it was black. The only thing I don't like about the white Accord is his muffler hangs really low but it is a sweet ride. And that white Civic I forgot has four freaking exhaust tips which looks kind of weird but it is also a sweet ride. I keep forgetting that you live Downriver now too Stylin. I am going to start keeping my eyes open for some nice spots where we might be able to all hang Downriver without po-po harassment. I did notice that they cleared the road in front of Elizabeth Park the other day so you can actually get in there now. The road is still filthy though cause it was all blocked of for sewer work.

I just went to Murrays and got Meguiars cleaner, polish, and gold class wax.....been so long since I used Meguiars, I was using Mothers then Zymol but the only Zymol I can find is the cleaner/wax or I can order the other stuff for like 50 bucks a bottle and Mothers was always a pain to rub off by hand. What type of products do you all use? Hopefully this Meguiars will do the trick for my black ride with swirl marks [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG] Talk to you all soon!

p.s.
huyqvu Do you know Mike with the red Civic from Team Balistic? He is from Southgate. I met him at XCEEDSPEED.com and he seems pretty cool. He is the one that told me to go to Autowerks. He mentioned meeting up with me and introducing me to some of his car buds, just wondering if you were one of his car buds. Later!
