Whatz up everyone! I was wondering if anyone in the bay area watched UFC, If so you know there is a good fight going on this Saturday. I was wondering if anyone wanted to meet up in St Pete for a meet? I figured it would be another good way go get together and get to know each other and get our drink on. Some of my friends are getting together so I figured id invite my fellow aziners! Let me know what y'all think.

I always slammed my cars, but originally, wasn't going to go mod crazy on this one and wanted a lower stance that isn't too low, yet rode like stock. That was why I had gone with the tein/tokico setup. Oh well, mod bug grew on me

Well, my only experience with TEIN is in my friend's MR2 turbo which was pretty heavily modded. And that car handled great, and was fantastic on highways too. I didn't think you could lower a car and maintain a decent ride, but that car proved me wrong.

Thanks for the link. I knew I had seen your thread before. Who can forget Mom working on cars?

I kid. Yeah that time frame works out for me, perhaps more towards the end of the month?

Did the car get fixed from the accident? Pics looked pretty bleak

Let me know when you've swapped everything out, and I'll see what I can do!

End of the month works fine for me. I actually dropped it off on the 5th for the accident repairs. Even when I get it back, assuming it's problem free, I still have to find time to do the swap. Stuck on 55+hr weeks for awhile, but I'll make something work

Surprisingly good. Just have a ton of dust to clean Other than that, they cleaned and waxed the exterior, and there isn't any visible blemishes. They somehow managed to reuse my trunk and straighten it out. Only a few minor blemishes on the inside, but better than what it was Guy didn't help me out at all with the front dent though

Insurance decided that my receipt for the custom tails wasn't "detailed" enough, so they wouldn't cover the replacement. Still getting a check for the cost of a replacement tail light (and I hope it's an arm and a leg). I'm not sure if it's a coincidence, but my radar detector and factory cd player took a crap. Radar was having issues before it went in, and the cd player issue seems to be a common issue, so it's hard to point fingers. Either way, I'm just glad to have my car back.

Nope. Told me he could have his dent repair guy do it for $100 Unfortunately, I need the left side. Not sure if I'm going to buy another custom left one, or go ahead and sell this one At least I've still got the tinted tails. If weather permits, I'm going to be doing everything to the car tomorrow, so I'll try to take pics of it then

Well the next Cars n Coffee is Aug 21st, so I'll probably go to that, if anyone wants to join. If we want another meet sooner, let me know I'll try to attend that too

last meet was great.
