Someone getting an alignment today? Maybe new wheels or tires?

You guys free this weekend sometime? I'd like to take care of the brakes as soon as possible, though another week or 2 shouldn't hurt if scheduling just doesn't work out.

At Hector's? Yes, someone is getting new rubber I believe.

I will be around during the day Saturday.

Yeah, I saw grunge followed by SWG (I believe) earlier in the turn lane there.

I should be free Saturday. If so, I'll probably stop by to work on the brakes, if that's cool.

I'm not sure I will be available to help on Saturday afterall. My brother in laws Land Cruiser is down due to brake failure so on Saturday I am going to replace his brake booster. Shouldn't take long but you know how that goes.

I'll give you $50 for the seats you have now to make up some of the price if you'd like.

Make it $550.00 and we have a deal I recently got a quote to recover my entire interior in any cloth I like for $1200. I have not decided what I want to do yet because leather is so heavy and slippery.

The people that have had that done look AWESOME. edit: You drive a hard bargain. I'll add a partially melted drivers side exhaust shroud to sweeten the deal.

Yeah the shop I am looking at does some great work. I saw a pair of M3 seats they reupholstered and I was sold. My drivers side front seat is in rough shape on the outside bolster. I can get mine repadded and covered for $700.00 for the front, get mint 09' seats for $650.00 from Paul, or get my entire interior redone for $1200.00.

My short list is (no particular order ):


1. Respray front bumper, hood, fenders.
2. Paint and install side skirts, rear aero flares, and GTO spoiler (maybe not sure on the look yet)
3. Install new under tray and splash guards.
4. Replace center console and lid or repair and paint scratched silver portion
5. New floor mats
6. New tint
7. Find and fix slow AC leak
8. Coilovers
9. Add secondary radiator
10. Install Front and rear sway bar and endlinks
11. Install Bass tube and bar mount.
12. Replace headlights.
13. Turbocharge this bitch.

If you really want skirts, a guy in Houston is buying the front bumper we talked about a while back and I'm sure it would be a better deal if you two made a package buy.

GTO SPOILER IS UGLY UGLY UGLY UGLY. Rest of that looks good

A guy in Houston huh? I just have to sit down and come up with a game plan financially. I would like to get my car completed aesthetically and to do that I may have to stick with the factory bumper and lip (which I really like actually).

My old girl is getting up there and while she still looks good, I want her to be as mint as possible now that I don't drive her so much.

I like the clean look and I am not sure how the GTO spoiler goes with that. I have to admit though that the GTO spoiler follows the lines of the car much better than the stock spoiler.

Front bumper + lip + vertex sides + rear aero flares = awesome

Vertex spoiler > no spoiler > GTO Spoiler > stock spoiler

wings belong on birds, I personally can't stand spoilers unless they're on functional race cars etc., I lol every time I see some fwd pos sporting some gross fiberglass monstrosity or some other form of park bench, I love the look of our cars dumped with no wing, can't stand to see a beautiful car ruined by some piece of plastic hanging off the back that looks out of place.
