REVEREND: Random Thought: When I First Read your User Name I thought you were Black. "the reverend" Ionno.

ALSO! I say you wait till I get my new wheels painted and my Replica Vertex Painted along with my (pending sale via PM) Carbon FIber Pillars (inside w/gauge pod for 2 gauges) If you do it then, most likely it will be dirt cheap since all of our stuff is going to be in the booth at the same time and my Paint Shop can paint it all at once. When that tiem comes up I am also gonna aask Shady if he wants to finally paint the Tsunami front, as well as anyone else in SOCAL with a WB

EXCELLENT point brought up by Scremn8 so I felt it was worth pointing out.
I stayed on the strip once and getting in and out of the damn hotel was a NIGHTMARE until I found a back road.
One more reason I'm not staying on the strip.

Matt, you can still drive around the 8, it just wont look as purdy with the front bumper ansd 1 fender missin. You dont drive far to work right? You live at HOME so cant you borrow your moms or sis's (after her friend rammed you). You can drive around naked, but you still gotta have a front license plate. .... Its gonna take about 1 week Matt, That I know for sure. Drop off early Monday, pick up late Friday (if you decide not to wait tille my wheels and other )

When you think that is going to be? Couple weeks probably?

And I am 99.9% sure it is illegal to drive around without a front bumper I am sure Jedi or someone can confirm

What can we say? Its SOCAL Baby someone told me once that SoCal has enough money to survive off of each other or something like that. Like If SoCal was to seperate into its own Island (2012) we would be Okay Financialing. Something about SoCal having a LARGE REVENUE ?>... anyone with a Marketing/Accounting Background care to put some input? That explains the rise of a 8.5% Sales tax to 9.5% sales tax in Los Angeles County & I heard its going to 10% soon

Zumn: California has the largest economy of any state in the country and I believe it also is the 8th largest economy in the WORLD
as an example, the entire COUNTRY of Italy is barely in the top 10.

as far as sales tax: The tax hikes are set to expire in LA this summer so it should drop down to like 8.50% or something. CA is in a serious budget crisis so the state assembly is thinking of trying to increase it again but the voters won't pass it. (they hopefully won't make that mistake again)

REVEREND: How much time do you need? ETA for my wheels is like 2-3 weeks. ETA for my Turbo Kit is 2 weeks (DYNO DAY and/or LAX meet), ETA for my Vertex Replica front is after my wheels and Turbo kit (I need it before install for proper fabrication of the Intercooler Brackets)... So Im guessing about 1 month give/take. Im actually thinking of just rocking the rims Black/Polished Step Lip for a couple of cruises & pics and then get them painted before SS. But we'll see.
