Yo AJ, check your door step. Well I was in the hood (at smiths) Santa left a gift for you.
Also on the way back to my place; you know that 2000 white honda prelude? well, lets just say he wiped out on Vegass blvd and we wont be seeing him for sometime
Wow... Today was quite the day. On the way to meet jacky for the ap exhaust clamp at panda express on blue dimond I see a toyota with armin driving all kinds of crazy and pulls in front of me as we enter the shopping center of panda, he tells me his dog was sick and passed today
I get lunch at panda and wait for jacky. He brings the clamp and as I'm leaving panda I also seen a really sweet bike and a ford fuckes rans a red light. The guy on the bike t-boned the car and gets right up to call 911
Tonight after work i stop by mikes. On the way back from mikes some jack *** in a slamed black TC was trying to race me well getting on the 95. We merg and I see a car flying on the car pull lane so I'm chilling at 70mph. He gets passed me and gets in the car pull lane and gets pulled over by a nhp that was frucking flying. I think the cop got pissed off and pulled him over for making him brake hard lol
Man what a day. I'm going to the jym then watch some dam good ****.

You the man! Sounds like you went on a mission... What time are you working til I got gobs of HD pronage. The new kids want to hang out sometime. I really liked that prelude, I was gonna hit him up to help me with mine but it still needs a CA smog check. Armin still has 6 more dogs. Thanks I owe you one! I'll hit you up after work.

You read my mind...I was just thinking about how to improve my handling. I pmed her let's see if I can get this. Nice find, thanks!

Phil: Thanks for the link , but your paint looked so brand new I want mine to look like that again. I will see how bad mine is and get a quote anyway...

I don't know if I will make sevenstock this year. Guess I'm kicking it with the esmeril turbo crew.

Gil: You want to change out your gaskets sooner than later.

Leaning back toward chrome rims because I saw Phil's at night and they were so shiny. Something like this perhaps...Gil

My car needed some claybar treatment and waxing since I havent done so the whole summer. Plus the fact that the wifey has been using it as a daily driver...

Phil, I've heard of granite auto grooming... you're right, they are NOT cheap... but I'm sure your 8 looks brand spanking new.

We're probably gonna head out to Cali on Friday on a leisurely pace... and check out Sunday.

This week is draggin'

AJ, did the gaskets come in? I'm ready when you are!
Yes those are "the ones" see attachments

Speaking of auto grooming, how good are them guys Phil? if the price is right and they do work like THIS guy then I'm cool with paying the price. Let me know if there work is that good. If it is then shoot me a pm with the info

I wanted all the surface scratches and swirls out before seven stock - they are gone and the real plus is the shine..........

It looks like a good buy if you can get them.

All the surface scratches (not deep scratches) and swirls will be gone and the shine will be better than when new. Rock nicks and such are still there but just getting rid of the swirls was worth the money

I don't know if I will make sevenstock this year. Guess I'm kicking it with the esmeril turbo crew.
Oh god, your going to do it? get the turbo? My congratulations you will be a happy camper. Word of advise, do not let them talk you into a Interceptor X piggy back system. You will regret that move.

Hell you will be in Cali on Saturday - can't be far from SS - come on down.
Gil: You want to change out your gaskets sooner than later.

Chrome rules............I really like the look of these - traditional 5 spoke and chrome for the "bling". These should really look good on your 8

Be ready for the sticker shock but when you pick it up you will be really happy. All that surface stuff that you have will be gone and you will be left with a shine you can't believe. If you have dents, get Dent Pro to remove them prior to the cleaning.

Now that I found this guy, after I do all the body work (coming) and have it repainted, he will do the upkeep. See the post where I tell AJ about him for the address.

Phil, I'm not getting the esmiril turbo...yet. I just call Jenn and Ryan "The esmiril crew" because they have esmeril equipment on their her 8. I still might go supercharged. You're paint looks better than new, that's why I wanted to get it done. Sexy.

Gil, the gaskets should be here.
