He should be voted best son of the year. 7 years old is a great age. I just got him a LT-80 quad and he is riding with me on the trails like a mad man.

He's saying, Daddy is anal about his car so better double check my work....

True that! I have had a hell week this past 10 days. My wife was in and out of the hospital but all is well. I could use a drink with the boys in the near future.

He already has an embroidered Acura hat and a RonJon custom hat digitized by you know who...

The kid has already started modding every car he has. He is a natural, takes after his dad. Eric (Accuratin) has had a good inpact on him as well. Once he saw his car, he's had the mod bug ever since. Can't blame the kid.

Thanks man!!! I remember that day well. I know he knew his cars....It's funny to see a group of car nuts being taken back by the knowledge of a young kid with a lot of info. He does his homework. It always helps when we do a field trip to the New York Auto Show in NY every Easter. Great show and sick cars!!!!

It's great to have a son who has all the same interest as I do. Keeps me young.

Hah, nice one, When I get the kid size T-shirts, I'll send you one for him. Wait till he turns sixteen, then he'll really be taking the car out to dry after a wash, wink wink.

His knowledge is very impressive.

Glad to hear the wife's ok. Hopefully whatever it was is over and done with completely. Hospitals suck (I should know, not only have I been in myself and had relatives in them, I work for one).

I'll give you a call in a week or two when things settle down for me (and it sounds like you, as well). This is probably a dumb question, but are you guys going to the car show next month? It's not the NYIAS, but it's a good excuse to spend the day looking at cars and grabbing a few afterwards before you head home for dinner.

^^Chili, I am going to try to go to that show but not sure yet. I went last year. It wasn't too bad. I might not be in town as I plan to go away that week being Thanksgiving in New Bern.

Since Alex did such a good job with cleaning the car and the weather is starting to get cold, I gave him a little present. Look at this kid representing Acura.....

nice wheels man, I was going to paint my calipers from black to red. Where did you get the paint for the caliper? What kind of paint did you use and how did you stencil the acura logo back on?

how are the calipers holding up? Do you experience any kind of paint chipping?

None what so ever! Do the job with the right amount of prep work and it won't chip.
