And if you guys even knew the real freaky stuff, man would you guys talk some sh**. haha. I won the biggest freak award in Mexico when we were all telling stories. THis dude said he got peed on, and I was like, thats nasty. Other people said he was the biggest freak, so I started throwing some stories out. I was extremely loud in a nice restaraunt as well, haha. Everybody was busting out soooo hard. And I won the award for freakiest person. Im such a pimp. haha.

Let me know how soon you'd be up for it and we can get all 3 sets of bezels sprayed at once, unless you want flat black. Either way I can help you out if you need it.

I love my blacked out headlights. One of the nicest exterior mods you can do, IMO. So much nicer than the chrome

I'm not sure if I want to do flat black or NBP. Any pics of anyone who has done them in NBP?

I am down to do this to my car as well. I want to paint mine a nice gloss black. Possibly another color as well, Im not sure. If I stuck with my original blue theme, it would be easy to choose. But a black should look good.

Any suggestions on what color I should paint mine, I have been going back and forth on this because I have a Green Car with Yellow center caps Blue shocks and Red/gold springs. I've got the Lucky Charms car.

haha, paint them a new color than. Probably something that goes with the whole car (blue), or the color of the springs that stands out the most.

I need a new header because my HP header got a damn hole in it at the collector. So it is in the trash, my stock one is back on. So I need a new one of those. Any ideas. Also this summer hoping to get the Random Tech cat, and probably some AEM pulleys. Then this winter go with a the new Crower cam and cam gear. Then we shall see from there. Probably either think about ditching it for a new ride next summer, or going boost.

But I need a new header...anyone wanna get me one for a wedding gift?

me too pretty badly. Maybe in a week or two?

I am ordering my clutch tomorrow. SO install Exedy Organic clutch, and resurface my flywheel. Those are both needed. My clutch does hold nicely to 7lbs. 8 slips pretty bad. 7 is very nice though.

I need some help installing some motor mount bushings. anybody with jacks, tools, etc, that wants to help, let me know. Should be a fast install. I just dont have **** for tools, ask Les, lol. I borrow from my friend down the street when I need tools.

If anybody wants to help some weekend, let me know. maybe in a couple weeks? Ive had em for a month, theres no hurry to getting these on, Id just like to before I sell my car, or I will just sell these.

So let me get this straight, you just boosted and have been putting money into your car to get it running right and a new clutch soon and NOW you want to sell it, what made this decision? Tired of hassling with it?

uhhh, money, money, money, money, money, and money mostly.

In order to not have to set my car up everytime I get in, costs a lot of money. (eManage and another tune for it)

I am gonna sell my clutch or get my money back for what Ive paid.

I have to change fluids more often, always monitor my car like 3 times a day before I drive.

I need a wideband sensor, I need another tune, I need way too much, and Im not a rich bastard.

If I could afford all this easily, i would keep it, but with 2 kids, I need a reliable car that i dont have to put all this money into. I am also going to be moving into a condo, within 2-4 weeks I hope. we havent found one yet, but are looking.

I have a thread in members rides talk about what to get next, any opinions, post away.

Red TYC tails, a painted Altezza grill (thanks Falken), blacked out headlights, and painted hood and trunk trim pieces to banish the chrome. It should all be done next weekend.
