It's pretty fun, the not fun part is I'm doing this by hand, I want to learn with a buffer. I'll bring the intake tmrw if I'm not busy, so you can play with it on cruise day.

Anyone have extra leather cleaner/conditioner you're not using? hmmmm?

I suck at detailing black cars. It'll take long hours no doubt.

Dude you do installs, why don't you remove the seats and do it for free yourself?

Oh damn haha, you should put some of that on the leather at least every 1-2-3 months to keep it nice haha

I'll look for it later when I get home. You going to the hangout tomorrow? If I find it, I'll bring it along and help you put it on haha

If I can offer my personal opinion, I was really excited to see your sale thread, but I was kinda turned away by the scuffs and paint issues. Not sure how much of a loss you're taking at 2k, but it might be worth getting them touched up before lowering it further.

hahahahaha!
So, I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on HWY 29 coming home from Napa and I'm on the right lane getting ready to turn right towards my home after I go over the small bridge by wal-mart. I look left and there's a huge gap between the cars on the left. All of a sudden a GTO pulls up right next to me with the OEM wheels painted black and starts revving the engine. I look over to the two teenagers and just begin to laugh uncontrollably and let them continue wasting their gas. Oh, the things I encounter in traffic hours around here.

I get that alot when i'm up north, funny thing is those two teenagers you mentioned sound familiar. I was in Petaluma and turning left into a shopping center and a Black GTO with black stock rims going the opposite direction stopped infront of me in traffic and revved his engine and blasted off. I was laughing and said to myself alright, if he wanted to race we should of at least be going the same direction.

Ask him

I honestly don't know, but I doubt it for at least the next few months. He's super busy ramping up the E85 tune, the DME flashing, the single turbo and for the shiftsector event.

i get your point of view. I was planning to touch them up and keep them but i just want to change it up. I know rite-way in walnut creek can get them fixed but i also dont have a second set of wheels to run. Im pricing them lower than i would like because of the rash and what not. There's nothing structurally wrong with them and they come with tires
