YEA BABY!!! I just ordered my....

Comptech HEADERS, Comptech STEEL BRAIDED BRAKE LINES, KRV Cross drilled ROTORS and KRV Carbon Fiber BRAKE PADS....

I spent $495 on the rotors and pads and $1300 on the Headers and lines.... I can not wait for the shit to be here and installed...


I will have them in just ibn time for my trip to the show in Daytona!

YIPPEE!


Question: the rotors will be solid silver cross drilled, i have white rims... so do you think i should:

a. paint the calipers RED?
b. paint the calipers BLACK?

All about the red. All i need now are some rims I dont think they are too ricey. You wont notice black at all because i can barely see the red although you have different wheels If you get a close up shot of the rims i can PS the color of the caliper for ya

ROSS! I called you last night brother... where the hell were you!?lol.... Anyway as you can see that I bought my headers, rotors, brake lines, pads.. what i will be interested in in a few weeks/months are:

COILOVERS -or- AIR SUSPENSION.. which ever would work best for me!

Axle Back -or - CAT back Exhaust... not loud rattle exhaust, but nice hum...


These aren't an order for tomorrow but like i said, near future... get in touch with me!
