Only 2 7thgens ran, Owen and another guy i've never seen before. The other guy had a stock si, he ran 16.5. There was a couple of nice 7thgens parked there though. Buck's old car was there, as well as a blue si with 19" Ace wheels, and a silver coupe all done up with dual exhaust. I think i might have some pics.

OMG! Well I haven't been on the board in a while, LAC or 7thgen, cause my computers ****ed and I have no internet access (I'm at a friends house). Anyone good with fixing computers? I think I have a virus or some **** but Norton isn't picking it up.

Anyways, Bruno... what the fvck? I thought you were getting the BC front?

Anyone going to the meet tonight?

I'm pretty good with computers.. If you think it's a virus, check out symantec.com and I THINK they have a more accurate virus scanner.. If you could describe the problem a bit more we may be able to go from there. You can PM me about it if you want!

but if you want, i'll give you a hand and we can just wipe the thing clean and put anything you want on there... (i think i have XP, 98, and ME <-- thats a disaster waiting to happen tho.. lol)

it'll depend on the specs of the computer

When my car gets painted, my plans were to have my urethane rear lip welded to my stock rear but I guess you can't weld the 2 different kinds of plastic together. I can still mold, which I MIGHT do, not sure yet though..
Maybe the same thing applies for what you're talking about. You could probably mold the stuff but to weld it together may not be possible..
The guy that was going to do the plastic welding works with my painter at Cami so if you ask around, you may find a pretty experienced body guy that knows what to do for ya!

EDIT: Hey Big did you ever get a for sure price for those L7s and L5s? So to bug, lemme know

CF and FG are basically the same thing

just a fabric that you put a resin on

the only difference is that they require different types of resins... you can stick them together, im sure... but most likely the cold weld that your body guy is thinking of using will melt the resin of either the fibreglass or cf and so he doesnt want to do it

which is good.. cause at least he isnt gonna screw you... ask around and find a cold weld that will work on both resins and tell him about it

I havn't found a bodyshop and I won't be doing that around here, they couldn't even paint the kit right. Anybody know of a really good body shop that's done alot of custom body work or is that a Toronto thing.

I had a 1991 Toyota Corolla RS5 they're fun to drive, kinda sporty, when you sit in the car feels nice, but not really powerful or anything.

Long story short... **** is the devil Yes this all started because I was downloading ****

Here's whats wrong:
- I keep getting sex icons popping up on my desktop
- Internet Explorer will not run along with a couple other programs
- Win Media doesn't run! (I can't even watch the **** I managed to download )
- Computer is soooo slow now
- I'm using Win ME

I ran that Symantec online scanner and found 3 viruses, 2 of which I managed to delete. The 3rd one I couldn't find. I guess that helped but I still get **** site pop ups and **** like that.

Yeah they're cheap to buy and easy to fix, a bit better on gas than the civic. YOu can pick them up for around $1500 last time I check. VWs are solid but $$$ for parts. Why not get an older civic or accord?
