OMG the Apexi WS dampeners!! Let us know how they feel once you get them installed. I was torn between a debate between the Tein SS and the Apexi WS. I went with the Tein SS but I always wondered, what if I got the WS. So let us know!

UPS guy is great, funny as hell. Fed-Ex guy is an ass, leaves stuff in front of my door without knocking. Almost lost $600 worth of stereo gear to a rain storm, but my buddy noticed it an picked it up before it got wet (I was out for the weekend and told them to leave it at the office). No prob with UPS though.

towers is a plaza on university drive right off of i-595 in ft lauderdale. every weekend there's some kind of car meet. you should come check it out one day. there's a wide variety of cars out there. takes up about 4 parking lots to fit them all. anyways if you decide to check it out one day, let me know.
