Funny, I thought about that too, but I just can't think of anything or any part on my baby that I want his John Hancock on.

Guess my oil filter would've been okay.

Maybe if I had one of his Limited Edition Saleen/Jones, 1 of 500, kind of cars, I may consider asking him to sign the dash or something.

Should have had him sign where I had Jack Roush sign mine. Then you can show people that he signed it, but it isn't out in the open for a car show.

---------------------

Today is the anniversary of the day I ordered the car! Then the waiting began...

Well, on 12/20/05 I went to the dealership to order it, and on 12/21/05 it went through.

Wow!
It's hard to believe a year has gone by.
Heck, I was still a lurker until the beginning of January.

wow you ordered yours one month to the day earlier than me. I ordered mine 01-20-06. Hard to believe and to think I have 9700 miles on it now and it only had 6.8 when I got it.

I'll have to check my DORA and see what date it says.

I took a pic of my odometer before I left the Dealership, I'll have to look for that too.

Sweet! A clean garage! I can see the tool collection slowly building.

btw- I recognize that TV box! I tossed mine in the trash within minutes of unpacking it.

Opinion time... or

Halo Fog Lights.

A friend from the Cafe has them (he's not a TMS member, so be honest) coupled with HID headlights.

I like the way the Halo's light up when the headlights are on, it's a nice touch.

You're right. I remember that day like it was yesterday.

I thought I scanned my DORA, but I can't find it. I'll have to seek out the hardcopy and scan it.

Nice! Not even one speck of dirt on it.

Be safe on it, Chuck. It's the other bozos you have to watch out for.

I had 2 bikes before.

Wow! Who gave you that? Your wife? I knew I liked her...

Chuck- Nice bike.

Bill- Halo foglights are rice.

Update on rotors-
Griding has stopped.
Acutual shade of rotors seems to have come through.
Been through the rain,morining dew, and wash still no rust. (Knock on wood.)
I love them they look great only problem is it drives me crazy when I look at my calipers.
I just ordered my G2 kit today. Got it from "hubcapsplus.com" (They're a vendor on G2's site) for $33.24 shipped. It's the best price I found online.

Why? I thought the "through-shot" looked pretty good.

I don't know it was just something about it that didn't give me a warm and fuzzy. I can't explain it. I didn't look bad but it didn't look GREAT. They're coming off so if you want them just PM me you address.

WOW! Let me say that backwards.. WOW!

There's a program out there that'll create the same mosiac using all the pics from your album.

I was going to tell you the same thing that Leo said, but Chuck's Motorcycle made me forget!

---------------------

Here's some pics of my Moleskin installed:

Attachment 16062 Attachment 16063 Attachment 16064

Like I told Bill, now I'll leave them out until I tint the windows. With the channels out, it'll be VERY easy to slide the tint down. And since our windows don't have full frames there will be no tucking needed into the sides and top.

Also, I'll close the doors and then disconnect the battery. Then when I open the doors, the windows will be all the way up.

As far as the rear window, I'll do that last. I'll have the top down to do the other 4 windows, and obviously the top has to be up to do the rear window. The only problem I see for the rear window is actually getting to it. My rear seats don't fold down to make any extra room.

Now I just need the tint to get here! It's ok, though... not having the tint gave me plenty of time to take my time on the moleskin. All the channels are warming in the sun to really give the sticky side a chance to adhere good.
