I am scouting places for lunch right now, probably gonna be in the South Charlotte area. As much as I would love to go to the Flying Saucer, I am almost certain there will be some children and spouses there so that might not be suitable for them. The meet: I am looking for more of a park setting with a little more room for any mini photo shoots that might take place during the meet.

I should have more info and details in the weeks to come, but in plenty of time for everyone to make whatever arrangements that might be needed.

Looking forward to seeing everyone,
Jesse

^That's hot! Congrats on finally finding one. Is it just me or are the exhaust tips tiny compared to the cutouts on the bumper?

it looks better in person, but the stock cut-outs are pretty damn big, especially when compared to oem tips.

Gotcha. It's still a sexy car! Does it have an aftermarket front bumper as well? I hope to see this thing in less than a month

I can kill some ribs, but it's gotta be at least 11am before I attempt to eat any.

thanks for the compliments everyone!

first round of mods this friday:

- ditching hi flow cat for test pipe
- dyno tune the apexi vafc2
- ditch the bc racing coilovers (way too stiff for me) for oem shocks w/ eibach springs

hopefully the following week:
- oem rear lip spoiler
-oem side strakes
- sell the volks for something else

i'll stop hijacking the thread now

back on topic: i miss charlotte so i'm living vicariously through all of you =). BE SURE TO HAVE A BLAST and post pics from the meet(s)
