yeh 2 years!! the fitment is not perfect, and i decided not to pay the shop hundreds (probably thousand.) to make it fit perfectly, so I have gaps under the sidemarker on both side. oh well... and the car is sitting wayyy too low now (the bumper sits about 2inchs lower than my friends S2k in the pic and his car is already lowered)... i'm having trouble even pulling out of my own back alley and some gas stations ( let alone driveways)....... which is especially bad since I have to drive my 8 in the winter ....

Daaaaaaaamn, dying...really wanted to check out your kit in person. I think I might have to hunt your car down at campus.

I thought we were going to grab a bite? Not sure if I'll be doing the karting thing.. I'll come for the meet though.

Dying, you're car is looking good! I hope to see it in person one of these days. As long as you don't lower your car you should be fine for winter. (hehehe...)

We can always get food after the karting, I'm sure eating first then karting would not bode well on many stomachs =/

looks like there is a chance i might actually be able to make it! but i dont think i will be participating in the go-kart thing though.

slowlude: its already lowered...and it cracked a little bit today.... I came across this construction area in china town where they were trying to cover some wire across a narrow 1 lane road by creating some huge speed-bump covering it. I didnt have room to 'attack' it at an angle and my car is lower than the bump... it was painfulllllll

I am not sure if I will have my rx8 with me on Sunday, it's going to the dealer to get the console lid fixed (slides itself close when I am braking, been like this for a long time) and getting my sunroof (rattles BAD when it is sliding open) checked out. My bumper-2-bumper warranty is up this month.

Can I bring my Mazda 3 ...or TSX if I don't have my 8?

I left PM's for a couple of people that might not make the carts to call me and I'll let them know where we are headed.
