Seriously though, the hood looks great! Congrats man, that's a sweet look!

Holy moly that's awesome! I'd almost be afraid to eat it though!


What a great weekend.... and just when it couldn't get any better, little E won his first race in 2 years. Time to celebrate now!

You dudes...
Gurley Leep's body shop has quoted me about $425 to paint and install my GT/CS front bumper... Does that sound reasonable?

Thats about what I got quoted. Same shop told me 3000 for painted stripes (Whole Car) then I found a family owned shop that Quoted me 750 for stripes. Look around for a better price first.

I haven't had it done yet. I do think about it allot. Painting stripes seems so permanent. I saw 2 cars that they did, that looked great. Down in lakeville Mn. Take your time look around and ask for picture samples of cars they have done. You will be happy in the end.

My car is about to look more like a GT/CS as well, bumpers are going in place tomorrow. A friend of mine who works at a body shop prepped and painted them both for me for $500.

Ha Ha...Yeah I'll buy the second set if you buy the 1st set at JR's latest price. Can't believe that thread have taken 2 1/2 months for him to admit the numbers GMS uses in their own advertisement about their coils never came from them but rather Moss Mustang. Tells me everything I needed to know about that mod.


Also I got a check engine light again last night. Same as 4-6 weeks ago. P0456 (small leak Evap system) Most likely problem is the gas cap is not sealing. Turned the DTC off and will see if it returns again. The cap is tight. At least as tight as the ratchett will like you tighten it. Might need to get a new one. Don't know.
