Dang man going out of town for installs. Do you have tools? Midpipe/exhaust installs are like the easiest. I am actually about to take off my exhaust whenever my new one arrives.

But nonetheless the more the better for Saturday right?

I can't remember the last time we had an install day in Houston since two years ago o.0

Two years? Geesh, I can't even count how many we have had. Hell, even the google earth shot of our house was on a mod day

Yeah a lot of members that we use to have when we did our mod days sold their car or wrecked it. Since then there has been a lot of new faces in the 8 community here in Houston . I try to help out with some members who call/text me when I can, but school and work is killer.

I need to get a good job... a guy just posted pics of his DD on AZ:







He gets BBS LM's for his DD. Here's his project car:



-RS4 Widebody
-RS6 turbos
-Work wheels
-lots of other stuff... that's the basics lol

I'd love for my car to be like his daily driver.

I got the RR foot well lights off of 8 Maniac but I'd also like to see if cornholio135 can help me install the led strips in the engine bay for more light.

I can honestly say I wouldn't have the same type of car for a DD and a toy. I like to spread the love a little bit.

Once you start doing that much appearance stuff you should really make an effort to keep it clean lol.

I was hoping to get my gauge in for this weekend but it seems they didn't ship it until today. Oh well.
