Derrick, I got the new ones just in case. I believe you can use your old ones as well, but don't quote me on that one.

Wow...did you sell all the aftermarket parts already? I know you had some in BM.

On the positive side, you will have fun building it back up.

I had not sold anything yet , I had actually been holding on to the exhaust for tl2slow. I had just not got around to posting the stuff in the black market.
The only reason the exhaust is not back on the car yet I have been waiting for new gaskets so it can all go on with fresh ones...

So who all is going to skyline?

Yes, definitely reduce body lean in turns. One of the best bang for the buck.

So the hunt will be pretty difficult, specially on the MT in this area. But will see.

^ Hey whats up. Well I have been to a fair share of them around here. I used to go to MICAR Collision in chesapeake. They do really good work as far as structural repair but I think their attention to detail sucks ass. They over sprayed my rims and completely missed the bottom section on my door with the clear.

I recently went to Car Struction also in chesapeake they were the only people who did my car right painting wise.

Im sure others have other places but thats my

Hey guys! Nice to see that there are quite a few HR TL owners out there. I'm new to this forum and don't have a car yet, but still looking...

...so if anyone here is looking to sell (or knows of anyone) a 2004-06 with 40k-80k miles, 6MT ideally... HIT ME UP

I was looking at this nice, black 05 TL, 6MT with Nav here in VABCH, but didn't go through. Had a TON of miles on it. Oh well.

Thanks guys.

Insurance covered it when I was going through my battle between paint matching with priority chevy. they fucked up my color match twice so I called my insurance and told them I wanted it re done.

If your interested talk to a guy named Vince he is a manager of some sort and a pretty cool guy.

I need to talk to him myself about getting my rear bumper painted to match the rest of my car when i get my rear lip to its raw condition.

That's funny...Priority is the one who did my bumper. I was told they could not match it because of the age of my car paint.

About 45 mins later i go on line to check the status of my package and it says delivered. I am like WTF is going on here, go and open my front door and sure enough there is my stuff just sitting by the door. I mean damn at lease ring the door bell and not just drop my stuff off.

I have a BBQ to go to so I want to plan things around this meet.
Last year, I think registration was around 10 am and judging was around 2-3pm. Entertainment started at noon and food kicked off around 12:30 if I remember correctly. I don't have the official details for this year yet, but I can't imagine it being too different.
