Yeah, me and my wife to be are going there for our honeymoon. Staying at the MGM Grand for 4 nights. Not much on our agenda aside from trying to go to a cirque du soleil show. Other than that we are mainly just going to hit all the usual big things to go see. Stratosphere, Paris, water show at bellagio, stuff like that. Just want to hang out and have fun.

Brake Caliper Color????

So, I have been thinking about painting my brake calipers for awhile just can't decide on a color. My new wheels are going to be a lighter silver with a blue accent (Don't wana give too much away ). I have a few in mind, y'all help me narrow it down

Silver
Kinetic Blue Pearl
Red
Blue
White w/ Red Brembo/Acura Sticker

The colors are from http://www.g2usa.com/CHART.html (accept for KBP)

Opinions Please!

KBP w/ silver text or leave them like was said before. You already have brembos, no need to mess with them too much.

Hey Jesse, congrats man. The Mystere cirque show at TI is really good and not bad prices for tickets. I love Vegas man, been a couple years since I've been out there. Enjoy!

Thanks man. We really want to go see the Love show, but tickets online are nuts. We are going to see what we can find them for down there though. No matter what, we just want to go to A cirque show somewhere if nothing else. I've never been there actually, neither has my fiance'. Thats why we decided on Vegas, that and how dirt cheap you can go there for.

Nice. Have fun in vegas. They added so many casinos now. I drove by a few weeks ago and it's fantastic down there. Did you get any comped nights? I know if you call them and ask, they'll usually comp you if you tell them you plan to gamble or shop in their stores.

depending on how bad it is, maybe try a hammer and tap where it is hitting to make enough clearance


also are your motor mounts still good, so the motor is not leaning one way or the other from a bad mount?






btw: i should take you for a ride in the subie for you to hear the motor mounts (actually just tranny mount right now)

no i got performance/harder ones instead , which are alot stiffer then stock, so the motor does not move







and i still need to get that rear end/suspension/diff tightened up so it is more responsive, and can be launched at the track......

^^^ Nice truck, but I can never own a truck, I'm a car guy. Wifey ownes the SUV so we're solid there.

And the 105K service doesn't bother me but after talking with our lil group today I decided it is time for a change. I LOVE my TL but I am craving more power.

No EVO or STI on the menu though.... going Euro.....
