Is that an ASpec badge under your "RL"? Will you take a close pic if so?
I happen to have a pick of that in my phone

Let me help you out.



Now that that's sorted out, welcome to AZine. Let's get this moved to the Photogallery.

Nice Aspec, CMBS, LSM by the way.


EDIT: Hopefully you find this thread Manny...

Here are some more. This guy posted a thread last night with images that didn't show up. I went to help him out, and by the time I posted this, the thread was gone. Oh well.

You completed step one correctly but hosting them externally to AZine. Once that is done, you right click the pic, copy image location, come here and click the yellow mountain and sun icon, and then paste the url there. If you don't see the pic in the post window, then it likely won't show (excluding iPhones and possibly iPads).

Good job on restoring the CMBS emblem. I'm about to do the same with mine. Looks like you need some new tires and an alignment.

Haha yea i need new tires forsure! winter is coming up soon...most likely next week just got to install the rubber on to the rims myself....and it does need an alignment pulls to the left.
the 3m headlight kit works great on the CMBS...probably gone by two kits for each headlight

It's my job. I know what alignment worn Michelin Pilot Sport A/S's look like. You can see how shallow the tread is on the insides of the rear tires.

You know Manny, you could start your own thread and not have to see my stupid avatar on the first post everytime and my name on your thread. The only reason I started it was cause I wasnt sure if you would come back. I wasn't trying to steal your glory. We could either merge some posts or let this thread die off if you please.

Only a mod can merge posts. Nueronbob would probably be the best to PM since he visits us the most often.
