thanks, and i wish i could, but i have a habit of spending all my funds.. and i'm not going to zero or negatives with the way the economy is today, haha.

Are you talking about the headlights or tail lights? Cuz if you are blacking out the headlights I'd want to do it with you because I don't trust myself, haha..

And are you talking about the guy from MAP? He kinda just disappeared like 3 weeks or a month after he posted here..


Andd... It's official. I am keeping hellkitty. I love it too much to see it go.

Yeah I'm talking about the headlights. I can't really risk messing mine up either lol. If I do it, it's gotta be done with no problems that day or I'm screwed. And I guess I looked at it wrong. They don't make black housings for yours either...it's only for 96-98 TL. Chances are I'll seek professional help for everything to go smooth. I found a guy that does custom headlight work, LEDs, retrofitting and whatnot for the Nissan maxima tuners around here.

I like how Kyle's rear tint looks. Did he use film?

Good to hear you're keeping the car. So I'm guessing you guys already had the final Azine summer meet already?

Well I started and I've gotten all the screws off I need and started to pry it off but this is harder than it looks I'm stuck I don't know how to get it off and even if I do and get all these connectors unplugged I don't know how I'm gonna get it back on. I don't want to stop but I don't know what to do.

Slappy, I can install that HU for you next weekend, this one's booked. If you line up the garage space with Jorge, we'll be all set.

Kyle, if you didn't get your dash work done, come on out next weekend and we'll do yours too.

If you have everything we need, shouldn't be very long. Do you have the harness to connect your radio to the factory wiring? I just signed up for a Test N Tune for 8/29, so it will have to be the other day of the weekend.

Takes one idiot to screw everything up. Look at the front page of todays star tribune paper. That article makes me angry because half the stuff they say in there isn't even true. They make it sound wayyyyy worse. Looks like midway is probably going to be no more.

I heard about that the night it happened, but it's bullshit. I can't imagine that fuckin idiot had anything worth running the cops for, other than wanting to look cool. She fucked it alll up for everyone. I don't think it will be fun to go there til next summer, if then.
On a better side note, I am talking with some people online about getting an inspire bumper from Japan.. It won't be cheap, but I already need a bumper anyways.. Is there a way for insurance to give me money for it? Like claim something broke my foglight and it requires the whole bumper to be replaced?

Well I doubt you can even go to midway anymore because cops will already be there or pulling over any car they see.

She seemed to be friends with a bunch of people on my facebook and Myspace when I had it. I asked them all how they knew her and they just said she added them haha. I saw her once at my old college.

I've never hung out at Uni, but I cruise through it coming home from Muay Thai every weekend and there's alot of little ricer fags with the fartcans and rusty multicolored cars that drive like idiots trying to start races until they get pulled over and put in their place. I'm kind of afraid to drive through Uni on those nights now haha.
