Nice, Sanjay, do you have coilovers or anything? I like the stance so far and with spacers it'll be better.

Well this is how she is sitting right now, put my coils on and didnt want to go too low.

So is everybody tight for the pre-meet on saturday before the 780 meet? Can we all agree on 6pm at Hawerelak park? (the parking stall near the back)

How's 5:30ish if we're planning to meet there at 6PM?

If you have a rubber mallet, hit the tire all over to loosen it up. Or kick it if you don't have a mallet.

Had an early start to detailing this summer, first one of the season even before my own car lol.

Actually on 2nd thought, I'll be out and about around 12 so I'll wash my car around then. Guess I'll meet up at Vince's house around 5:30? But shoot I forgot where Vince lives lol...

I hate the 780 douches as well but it won't be as bad if you don't go alone. If I had to go alone I wouldn't go at all

Anyone interested in getting any vinyl from http://www.metrorestyling.com/

We could split on shipping since from the looks of it right now I'll have to pay about $50 to get my roll shipped.
