Kave, if I can copy the cd's I'll pick one up and get copies for anyone who needs.

I did a little recruiting at work today, kid rolled up in an 8, said his name was Tyrell and he had read about us but never posted anything. I invited him to join the forums and come to the next meet.

how much was the wing? this is the wing i would like to get. cant find it cheaper the $250 seems kind of steep for a fiberglass wing.

I purchased the MS wing through Rx8garage.net. I opted for the Mazdaspeed part as I was concerned about fitment issues switching from the stock wing to this one. As well as the issue of trying to find a quality paint shop to get it painted. I didn't want to deal with the additional fitment issues that may occur with a replica. Mine was 840.00 (910.00 or so with shipping).

I ended up having fitment issues anyways...but the paint was quality, the pieces and structural quality was excellent. Don't know how it compares to the replica's...but if it is the same difference I've seen with some of the other replica pieces (especially the front and rear bumpers on the urethane kits)....I'm happy I spent the additional money.

we will be leaving town today, and returning sunday night.
She will post the list then.
while we are gone can we get a "count" on how many people are willing to attend a BBQ, or at least luch at some place after the run.

all in favor, say I
