Steven...you say it...it happens. You should be used to that already!
Anil...never thought I would say this, but your headlights have grown me in a major way. Not enough for me to do it, but enough for me to appreciate that it's different and pretty mean lookin

Anyone have pictures of our color with the type-s aspec kit? I saw one on page 4, but it's kinda hard to make a decision based on one picture.

This is my first multi-quote - can I get an Amen!?

Let me just say that the paint didn't always look that way. As many of us know, black is a pain to keep clean. We put in a lot of elbow grease to get it looking nice. Thanks!

Much appreciation. I would call it a quasi Stage 3. Intially, I had the resonator removed...too much cabin drone. I put it back on...the sound, well...deep rich tone. It sounds amazing.

My first car was a '78 Toyota Corolla. A 4-speed that red-lined at 48mph. It even had a choke. Yup!

Great minds think alike, brother!

Appreciate it...thanks! Graden, my son, has been a car guy (well, car boy) since he was a baby. It makes it easy on me to get away with so much. I can just look at the wife and say, "Babe, Graden thinks we should do X to the car..." It's easy to say no to me, but the boy? Well, how can a mom say no to her son!?

We also are driving the same kind of car, even the non-NBP guys. LOL.

No sir, just older than the "Other" Chris.
You gave it away with your first car being a '78! Unless you're Mexican in which case that could have been pretty recently.

I had an 88 Ford Taurus station wagon.

You know, fellas, I had a feeling that one comment was for someone else named "Chris." I should have went with my gut...though my ride is still fine! So now I know who this mystery fella named "Chris" is. LOL.

I go by CD or Davis anyway...so you can keep Chris.

Some awesome rides...keep the pics coming.
