Hey ya'll! I'd be down to stop by on Sunday if that's cool with everyone. I know that I no longer have the Civic but I figure it would be cool to see some of you again (lol/2 years) and you could check out my Spec. I PM'd Grey so hopefully it will be all good.

grey...since youve done it, tell me if you think this wont work. im in the process of buying a set of body/fender hammers and dollies. there is a 2 sided hand dolly in the kit that has a rounded side. im gonna use that instead of manufacturing a curved rod (cause i cant even find a solid metal rod and i have nothing to curve it with...filing would take too long). and i was thinking of banging on it with a 3 or 4 lb sledge. is that too heavy? im gonna have a thick piece of leather under the dolly...like a tool belt type thick leather.

once the weather is a bit warmer i gotta bang out a dent in my left fender also. so the hammers will come in handy more than once.

what do you think?? will it work?
Hmm... It depends on how the dents look like I guess. I have one that I think I can get to from the other side. It's rather flat, so I think that I can just push it out with a solid poiece of metal. We'll see. I'll make a sort of DIY when I get a chance. I see people doing metal work on TNN (Spike TV) all the time. They do it on bare metal (never painted), so I don't think that it would work (even with the leather). The force required to bend metal and the quickness with which it bends will be too much for the paint. It'll crack and flake off.

Remember their name? I don't want them myself unless they're stock ride height (or slightly lower) and a lot stiffer. What brand? Someone might buy them off of you though, so bring them.

I'll post up a link for that dyno information in this forum in a little bit. Hopefully we can meet up again soon. I'll be planning a big BBQ this spring and your all invited.

Hey guys sorry I missed the meet. This was my first sunday off since I started my new job and I haven't seen my Dad for a while so I went over to his house.

Give me a couple weeks notice and I'll make a day off request, I'd like to meet up with you guys again. Take care.

Yeah, it was so nice out. Not too much working on cars though. Maybe the next one will have more of that. Then again, I liked the format all the same. hehe... Too bad about your wheel Kevin.

Yeah you did. Beautiful car BTW. I love it. All it needs on the outside IMO is some side skirts. I think the Tsunami ones would work nicely with the 2004's body lines. Maybe they'll do that for the 2005's? If I end up making enough to buy one in 2005, then I will. An EX with all the extra's and probably in the color that you chose. hehe... Not for me though. For my wife.
