Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Blake Florida is pretty good. Its not very cold down here. This morning its only like 70 degrees outside and its almost December. The funny thing is that I have never seen a RONJON body kit for a CL and when i move to the pannhandle of Florida i see a 01 Orange one parked at a wal-mart

Can anyone recommend a good paint/body shop in the DFW area? My front bumper and other minor areas around my car need some attention. How much should I expect to pay to get my bumper painted?

Goodson did mine and they match really well. As for price, insurance took care of it, so no clue. Ask for Larry, the shop manager and he will work with you.

Ah . . . maybe not a 6sp . . but a turbo or S/C . . . . . . 3.5 build is a sure bet if I decide to keep it long.

I've had performance cars with auto and manual, and auto is really best. Provided you can mod the tranny, just not this one.

M3's are bad ass...but on a track any Elise/Exige will absolutely KILL everything south of an Ariel Atom.

I second that about Goodson and Larry. He had the Acura rep look at my paint that was defective from the factory and they picked up the cost of the job and the rental car last Nov.

I will find a weekend in Jan to do it. Jenn gave me the thumbs up so now it is scheduling.
19th is MLK so a long weekend, but that means a lot of people out of town.

Any preferences on weekend, if not, I am thinking 11th or 25th (Sundays)
