I know I can't make it, the GF is working late that night. I'm down for a Sunday morning breakfast meet at Stacks. Swing by and pick me up when you get the hood Or just drive the 8 without the stock hood and install when you get there!

Probably not. I just got Fallout 3 and it's way more rewarding then real social interaction.

So this Friday is Halloween. You guys still meet on Halloween "Friday" That will be a nut house near me for traveling...

Laythor nice hood I am in Concord... Keep it clean. My friend has a Evo with the stock carbon spoiler and its peeling of on half of it now... It is now 1 year old. So he didnt wax it or clean it or clear coat it. You have to post pics when your done with it.

I might be up for stacks. If I'm not climbing Sunday, I'll head down to campbell with you guys. If I can make it David I can give you a lift from the BART.

Yeah, looks like Friday is a dud and it's suppose to rain anyway. So Sunday at Stacks looks like the meet this week.

Here's a map if anyone needs it: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=e...9&z=14&iwloc=A

It's on the north west corner of campbell and third. There's a park garage on the north east corner right across the street.
What time works best for everyone?

It's the same giggle you get from your woman! But at least mine doesn't go crying in the corner. Did you go and pick up the hood yet?

Question RIMS question

Ok so today i left my work "oil refining" and was going straight after a red light.
The first light out of my work.
Was going straight.
Then my car started to turn left from my back tires sliding out.
I over corrected in the oil and rain mixture hella bad.
Could not slow down or speed up or even turn out of it.
So i did a 360 up onto a curb and onto the grass area.

The engine never died. I put it in reverse backed into the street pointing the wrong direction now.

So it was crazy but after taking my car in I have 2 bent rims.
Luckily no tires popped and all looked good till i took it in.

Does anyone know where to get a rim at a decent price???

The crazy part was that right when i backed into the street, I got out of my car and almost fell from the ground being so oily and slippery.

I had coworkers behind me and they watched and were in shock from just watching me go straight then spin around.
