Where would you think about relocating the fogs to?? I think that it sounds like a good idea to get more airflow into your ram-air set-up.

That's why I would like to try photo shop and see where they would look good . . . I could center them or ???
I also looked at some of the new diamond mesh grills at my other brother's shop and he had a sample . . . it could look hot, but I want to play with the design . .
as you know I need to repaint my frontend anyway . . . remember the bull on the hood . . .

Damn guys... I had to read 5 pages (skipped one for sanity purposes) just from yesterday afternoon! And I thought the ricer boys on the NF forums were PW's.
Civic, good to see you are joining the transmission problem-less side
Inferno, it has been awhile, I've been busy as hell pretty much.
Mantis, yes it was a sad moment. And ironically I may be moving out of that area soon. Lease is up in June. AND DSL BLOWS!!!!!!!!
And who's got a Z06 these days??!? My buddy (long time DNE member) upgraded from his 03 max to an 04 Yellow Z06. He's up in McKinney. The best way to spot him is the Keith Craft sticker on the rear window. He's lowered, chrome Z06 wheels, and NO SIDE MOLDING!!! (so pretty). He's sprayin pushin 510/533 to the wheel on a 125 shot. hehe

As for the Z06s, they are beasts when modded in any form . . .
Looking foward to hooking me up with some clear headlights . . .

From the guys upstairs:
SERVER MAINTENANCE
WE WILL BE GOING DOWN THIS WEEKEND! We're putting in a dedicated database server. I'm not sure when I'll be doing it. Could be as early as friday. Or it could be saturday. Basically it's really dependant on when I can get the site admin to rack the box and cable it.
His last offer was to do it friday, so we'll see... expect some downtime. 2-4 hours maybe when we get started.
Also, I might hit the track on Friday just for shits & giggles if I can find some N20.
Where can I find some in North Dallas area?

Mine is black with NO side moldings as well-I hate them! So far, it's got exhaust and shifter work, but that is it. I am saving for a Supercharger!!
