joe the door sills file came in at freaking $200 for both of ours, but I think i must have too many lines in my file or something... killerG says he only paid 40 something for his two.

Either they raised their prices or i did something wrong but I emailed them so let's see.....
it does say bulk orders get discounts, so.... who wants illuminated door sills?

Yeah, sometimes it's deceptively expensive. I know someone in Orlando. Send the file to me and material type or however we are doing it. I think we can get them for pretty good deal. (I did design an oil catch can for his company lol) You can text me if that's easier

Right before lunch, seeing a code brown happening down under while performing CPR(with a bag and mask) up over, causes one to lose their appetite.

maybe i'm messed up but that stuff doesn't get me anymore. GI bleeds def are the worst smell, few day old shit in the pants isn't the best. urine starts to smell like ammonia, causes burns to the skin if you lay in your own piss for days actually, kinda crazy.

last night I was on scene for a little over 4 hours running EMS Branch(Incident Command structure) at a fatal fire. we got a one vic, a dog, and a cat out. Mom and 2 more pets were lost to the flames. I had 2 hours left in my shift after i cleared when the medical examiner took the body, I barely gave it a second thought(except knowing my ass made the news and laughing)

Takeda seems to be the most popular. I have an AEM and have no complaints.. Doesn't resonate and doesn't have overly stupid big piping either.. Don't make it your first mod though..

Preventative yes. But my master cylinder is shit and I just received the replacement today. Wouldn't want to change one out without the other and I wanted to do the slave mod and figured it would be mych easier on a new one

Like iCrap said just pull out the rubber connector (don't even have to take the front bumper off) or take the whole resonator out if you just want the sound

Anyone know where the best place to buy TL Type S wheels? Lowest price I could find online was $650 + shipping. Also, I can use the same OEM mxm4 tires right? I know these are x8 vs. x7.5 for our stock 17s.

We are working together to make our first two sets of door sills, and if it works out we will setup a path for everyone else to get some illumi door sills as well.

I'm in love with my Michelin PSS. Car feels like it's on rails, and my Progress RSB isn't even on yet. I can't wait to put that thing on then taking it for a spin!

Acryllic. I haven't decided on EL or LED. I have both, waiting for the pieces to arrive so i can do some test lighting of both types to see how it looks.

Insane....

Apparently caused by the flat bottom, it got too much lift and basically acted as a sail.

Guys running Progress RSB. Did you grease the bushings (I will be doing this)? Any issues with noise/clunking?
