I wouldn't have a meet at your place unless you knew everyone that's coming. People don't respect anything these days.

I know

Thanks ok because when we buy another car and MOD it he has more business haha...

Yea I understand him thought I think he did more work to the my Buddy's S2k trying to make sure his camber was right and the ride height was perfect for the hellaflush look he wanted...

Now he gets to work on the Subaru

At the same time, I don't think we'd have a problem getting people to chip in 4 a keg of Kiran Ichiban.

i paid $200 for my front bumper but only because i've given him plenty of business... Paul (the owner) should be able to hook you up nonetheless.

Looks good Eddie. Is that pretty much permanent or will it mess up the paint if you try to take it off?

the roof is 3m di-noc vinyl. can be removed without any damage. hood is plasti-dip... also can be removed without any damage. we just need to figure out how to make the plasti-dip look smooth and possibly add a little gloss to it somehow.

I redid my roof in dinoc for the 3rd time. It was a huge learning experience and having a moonroof sucks! but 3rd time was a charm.

it does come in different colors and even clear. Keep in mind though that it's a synthetic rubber so the colors are flat/matte looking...
