Thanks man...it was an original idea ( They're Quad base model tips "two pairs of oem tips" ) that I had that I once shared with Beeze lol... but ever since I cut the tips of my last car I thought of buying another pair...The welder sent me home like 3 times shading it couldn't be done lol. ..I told home do I really have to go home & cit it myself? ...lol. .. 2 Seuss of tips & little cutting with a hacksaw. .. probably charged me like 60-80 to weld but I already had an extra set of tips laying around. ..


Your welcome to use the idea you just need rear type-s lip ...

Yea they look clean, but I don't think i wanna go throught all thatt just for the squared tips. They dmake smaller diameter tips that i can put on a base model bumper?
I'm looking for something not to expensive but not tacky looking either.

No they are STR. They were about half the price as the vossen. I couldn't bring myself to pay 2800 on some wheels. Specially since im saving to get a house soon :/

i feel the same way as you! CV3's look amazing on 4g's and so many people have em but 3-4k on cast wheels and tires is outrageous.

ACL designed the 2 weekend fest for this very reason


It's all good, I found out this evening that I get an extra weekend to study as an option so let's decide soon.

I've heard that you can't make the tire squeal or else your time is up. Not sure if that's true for this place too but I'd like to know before. I'd try the R8 or GTR, or the miata

Not worth it IMO solely because the instructor is in the car with you. :/

Yeah lets do something with Dennis. I planned on going to ACL, but had to divert my money to a 'weekend getaway'. I even had to sell my Cowboys/Texans tickets.

I'll have a study group at some point every Saturday and Sunday until end of November. They are either from 10-2pm or 2-6pm but our group votes a few days before each weekend so I'll know the Thursday before Planning stuff for me lately has been difficult



What do you have in mind?

Suspension and headlights :P got a low used tein SA with top hats from the BM and wanna see if we can open my lights to remove the angel eyes or solder it to fix it. But if we don't open them I really only wanna change the bulbs out


Can anyone recommend me a good shop that isn't crazy expensive for the timing belt/pump service? HNA is charging way 2 much for labor I'm not sure if it's worth it. I would do it with Matt/Jeremy but I'd almost do nothing since my lower back would kill me. Suspension/lights isn't as bad. Unless you two wanna do it for me for $$ or something else.

Call Precision R. Talk to William. Tell him Gus Sent you and what you are looking for. I always go to him if I want it done right. Definitely worth talking to him. He knows his stuff.

So driving back from a reunion I was attending Saturday night along FM 1560 between Shaenfield and Culebra when BAM I dropped down on this part of the road that was being shaved down. Dropped so hard it knocked my rear camber out of alignment and bent my wheels. Dang just got it out of the shop a few weeks ago. I'm going through right now trying to get a claim into TxDOT and also contacted our District 117, Rep. Cortez, in Austin for some help.

I'll post pics of the wheels. Can't f*^#g believe this.

Here's the damage to the wheels. Found out the culprit digging up the road is Yantis Construction. I went out there yesterday and they were filling the areas with black asphalt.
