Rust problem with Comptech springs?!??!?
yeah, so my car was in the shop getting XM installed and i look down to notice that my Comptech springs were ALREADY rusting!!!!! i mean, its abnormally plentiful though! anyone else have this problem, the springs are only about a year old, and definetely shouldn't have this problem. Arent they suppose to be coated with some anti rust thing? and would comptech cover that under warranty?? i think thats pretty messed up, especially since the car has always been garage kept its whole life.

lol..... not getting a speeding ticket for a year =)
that and my parents agreed to pay for insurance as long as i got rid of the bike which is going back to the dealer for a waverunner swap this saturday (hopefully!).
damn i missed her too! Year one: 19,000 miles, year two: 4,000 miles.... what a difference, huh?
sucks tho.... i have two pending violations, one speeding ticket, and one dwi i'm trying to get out of. it pays to have good attorneys..... sucks to be me tho....
