Dave/Phil: Image is working now, I guess I'm just too fast...?
Lol ya maybe. Or my server blipped.
Camber kit + spacers.
You were on Sportlines without camber kits? How bad was your tire wear?
I'm still on sportlines no camber :P You can tell I have a decent amount of camber but I wasn't cording tires or anything crazy like that.
It actually became less appealing to me aesthetically than anything else.
Oh really!!?!?!?!?!!?!??! C'mon buddy... share!Quote:

Lets hope you find the person. You may be able to get it fixed for less than 500. I dont think even if you have to repaint a door it would cost that much. There are some sponsors here who I think can help you fix that for less than 500Quote:

Yes, it hurts.....but try to just forget it. It already ruined your car, don't let it ruin your mind as well. The world is full of idiots. No matter how far you part and how much space you left, it will happen....and it will happen again. If it is just a dent and the paint is ok, just leave it alone.Quote:

I also washed & waxed it :D
Prinsesa:
try to find one of the guys that does dent removal (we've had a few during big meets)
i had a friend run into my door once, and put two nice knee sized dents into it. a body shop quoted me $500 to fix it. i found a dent guy, and he did it for $100. i cant even see the dent anymore.
Put 5000k HIDs in my fogs..... was pretty straightforward, only slight PITA was that I had to reverse the socket terminals on both of the fog connectors. Even that is easy enough to do -- provided you don't fix everything into place and THEN check that the light works properly :bang.
I am always slightly amazed at how many tools I end up using for even the simplest jobs. For the fogs I had the jack, a pair of jack stands, an assortment of screwdrivers, cutters for trimming tie wraps, scissors for cutting tape, flashlight --- and an umbrella. Yes, umbrella! The way I had the car sitting was fine when I started the job, but about halfway through the first side the I had the sun shining straight into my face while I was trying to look up into the bumper. So I used the umbrella to block the sun so I could see what I was doing. Neighbours must thing I am nuts :loco...
Changed my oil yesterday.
Today, I changed my brake lines to Goodridge S/S Braided Lines, flushed the fluid and put in the good Brembo stuff, put on new front rotors (OEM Blanks until my PowerSlots come in), front Hawk HPS pads. I also repacked and reclamped my right inner CV Boot as the large clamp was missing and it was getting low on grease.
Did it with a buddy from work - he has a hoist in his garage. He's in the process of building a 550-600Hp monster of a Talon.

Washed it yesterday evening, today, its covered with dust...
Washed it this morning. Dam white rims are so difficult to keep clean.
Got it dirty again at the BubbaQ

Found out my spacers center bore is too small.
Got upset. Very.
Attempted to fit a headboard with box into it. Failed miserably. Headboard minus box was OK. Drank some Pepsi to congratulate self.
Got an oil change, BUT forgot to tell them not to wash my car. Needless to say, the car now has brand new swirl marks :bang
