Where has all the money gone???
Ohh thats right...I spent it all... 
Definitly a long time comming.....
Brembo X-drilled rotors (front & rear)
Ceramic Pads (front & rear) <~~ Still being shipped
SPC Camber Kit <~~ Still being shipped
Eibach Sportline Springs
KYB AGX Shocks
Rockblocker's 1st gen taillight tint
And of course, the CF hood which will be here soon...
http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/carrol...9858/my_photos
All this + a few more mods (which i wont say what) should be installed and finished in about a month. The CF hood will be the last to arive and installed, & once thats on, professional pictures will be taken. I havn't taken any pictures of my CL in over a year, and in a month, you all will see a totaly different & better looking CL than what you might remember mine looking like a yr. ago.
Thats all for now...just wanted to share the good news and show you my new toys that arived today.

the camber kit is comming from "Excelerate"
Ceramic pads are brake pads, just the material they are made out of are Ceramic (i guess its the best type of brake pads)
I forgot to say the pads are comming from Brembo too...

I have had my xdrilled slotted rotors, and ceramic pads on for about a month, and I LOVE them, they stop so nice. And I got them all bedded in right, such a pain, but well worth it.

well considering most places in europe and asia pay the equivelent of 5-6 dollars per gallon, i think we have it pretty good. just be glad you dont drive one of those urban assault vehicles(suburbans, tahoes, expeditions, etc.) like all the soccer moms drive that get 6 gallons per mile.

Soccer MILFs in SUVs... ah yeah.
I remember when gasoline was $0.87 per gallon, that is why I'm pissed. Fuck Bush, Chaney and BIG OIL... they can all lick the sweat from the taint of my unwiped ass. BASTARDS.

Leave it to a thread about bragging about parts, to veer off topic to other things.
