Coils because it'll look a lot better...but...A-Spec because it's an item that could soon be gone for good (in your color anyway).

I'd get the A-Spec first because I think ASM is running low on availability. Check with Bruce or Tim to make sure.

yeah, the ASM kits or dwindling.

I really want the aspec kit, but probably would have to settle for a different color and then get it painted.

Yeah I'm leaning towards aspec kit. Talked to Bruce and he said 06 ASM is in stock. 08 ASM side skirts are in stock too. So I think best thing to do would be 06 rear lip, 08 side skirts (06 are interchangeable though anyways?) and then WDP front lip to get painted

I laid off the car for a while, bought a lot of camera stuff, now I'm getting back to the car, but this time I get to fix instead of mod!

My hobbies just come in cycles...I'm very into biking for a bit, upgrade things on my bike etc, then that simmers down. Go shooting here and there...work on the car for a while...work on Betty's car for a while...fix up stuff in the house....take dogs to dog park.

PS, Justin...it was Good morning, Y'all spelled backward.

Justin, if you are not big into trading look up CD's and high interest savings....also look into investing into foreign currency....with the way the $ is climbing up, I bet its going to fall back down soon and you could make some easy $$$....

the lowest risk is high yield savings....I get 4% APR on the first 1500 and then 1% APR on my savings....put that in for couple years and keep adding to it every month, see that shizz grow

CD's nope, might as well put it in savings..
Currency trading nope, you don't step into the deep end unless you know how to swim..
High yield savings is just a gimmick..

Best bet for Justn is a mutual fund.. check Kiplinger's for the best fit, preferably a fund that stayed afloat through the downturn because we might be headed into another one soon. Be ready to have some cashola at that point too.

Yay, 48K in bank but banged up car. Why even buy the exhaust then? Did you recently become fiscally responsible? You have other hobbies that cost way more than a modding hobby.

I just hate when people come off all snooty like OH I HAVE MY PRIORITIES IN ORDER, but then there are many inconsistencies.
Just drive a 1980's corrolla that you paid cash for.

and I TOTALLY missed what you did there!

Jer, I signed up for the exhaust before the accident.
I couldnt back out. (pun intended)
and at the same damn time, Jeff started getting pushy about the gun.
again, I couldnt back out.


its not like I drive the car, its sitting in the garage.
I'm content with the funny sounding exhaust leak and dent in the fender for now.
If i lost my job, today...my savings would be depleted in a matter of months.
again, I'm smarter than you think!

when I have acquired enough wealth, the car will be fixed to perfection and I'll be sitting on a nice nest egg.
