There's your date Bill

Have fun at the party!

 

Who's the Mrs. and who's the Mr..

 

I guess i'll have to edit my post, my wife and I will attend. rough crowd in here tonight

 

All in good fun Jorge.


What's the best place to get the BMR LCA's?? Best I've found is $134 shipped from Brenspeed. Won't be ordering till early next week so let me know if you guys find anything before then.

BMR Relo's are on the way ETA next Friday.

 

I guess I missed out on being the lucky Mrs Taco....

ahem, Yeah I'm going. The site locked up my browser, or I'm impatient, so I haven't RSVPd yet.

Same thing with the Sunset Show mailing that off today or tomorrow.


HD Radio + iPod... I'll have to check into that. If it works in mine perhaps that'd be even better than the brandmotion thing. I still want Nav though.

 

Mrs. Taco.

What class did you enter Brian? Personalized or Modified? I believe Bill and I are Modified. I tallied up my points and I was somewhere in the 80's.

 

I hope this hd radio+ipod works out, I dont know if it replaces the head unit but at that price it is attractive. I want to stay stock looking so it either this or the factory nav

 

Okay... this is for all you wise guys.

fyi.. I'm the pitcher!

 

Seriously, you guys are real pros.

No bad on Ronny C, he's a great all around amatuer photographer/videographer, and bless him for the thought, but for a once in a lifetime event, I'd seek a pro.

Jed, you can really score some big BCMC points here..

 

It pays to hire pros with specialty jobs, especially this type of thing. Bill, when you said you wanted someone to drink a few beers with, it reminded me of that Bud Light commercial where they hire a cattle auctioneer to get the ceremony over with.

 

Haven't seen that one, but this one is my favorite!

 

HotPart.com has good prices on stuff, but they only carry J&M LCAs.

Thanks but I'm set on getting the BMR LCA's now that I have the BMR relo brackets. I was originally going to go with j&m but this deal was to good to pass up.

BTW-SHR cup bezel will be here on Saturday just in time for the show.

 

Brenspeed is probably your best bet for BMRs. I checked stangsuspension and they are $134.95 plus shipping.

 

And my Zaino stuff will be here this Thursday!

Now I won't have to skimp on my detail spray (that's about to run out). I might even try that $30 super duper high gloss miracle spray I ordered just for the show.

 

You'll need all the shine you can get going up against the "stangpede".

 

Speaking of shows.... Doing the Sunset registration....

I look to have the following...
Exterior Mods
rear wing - 5
suspension - 10
graphics (decal) - 10
--------------------- 25
Interior Mods - 0
------------------ - 0
Performance Mods
Cold Air Induction - 5
Air Filter - 2
Underdrive pulley - 5
Exhaust Systems - 15
------------------------ - 27
------------------------ - 52


Now Looking at the Competition Criteria it says nothing about...
Short Shifter, Tint, Antenna, Chin Spoiler or hood struts.

Even then I added the Exhaust systems even if it's not a "system" ?? I could add body kit for the chin spoiler but does that sound right ?? at 20 points where a rear spoiler is 5 seems over the top.

My thing is I have absolutely no idea if I'm being overlooked, outclassed or if I am low-balling my numbers, I've got nada to go on. For this show I thought I'd ask before I send this out at least I can put myself in the right class. Unless something changes I don't see myself doing many more of these at all. Not to say I need to win but it just isn't for me. I could care less if someone has billet this or that or little covers for the fender bolts. If it ain't making me faster or quicker I've got little use for it. Of course the CDC and SSE spoilers and Stripes fall into this category. As far as looks go I'm nmad near done. There is little else I want to do for "looks". Anything else I get is either going to make the car better or lighter (even if that means me ) The over the top stuff or "themes" or little doo-dads all-over I've got no patience for and if that is what it take to win a little plastic trophy then I'm out. It'd be nice to have one, no doubt, but it's where I draw the line. ... My example the QM show there was more than one completely jaw-dropping 69-70 mach 1's not much done to 'em.. who got the interview for the Live Car Show dude... the chick with a Gone In 60 Seconds poster and little Oscars. Who won a class, the Star Trek dude.... Forget it. I'd rather spend my money on buying new rear tires every 6 months </rant>

 

I'd say go in the personalized class.

I don't think it takes "themes" to win but I do think it takes a few chrome/billet accessories. I think the engine bay is probably the biggest factor since it's what most people see. The rest of the car so long as it's clean and tastefully done comes second IMO. Atleast that's what I look at when judging. With that said I think your car and Jorges should have definatly placed over the 60 seconds, and star trek nerd.


FYI everyone-After doing some research on the Saleen watts link I've found out it does not replace the LCA's. The only things it replaces/removes are diff cover, panhard bar, panhard support bar, and the rear swaybar. The things I thought were LCA's were the two bars that move around the diff cover.

 

Enjoy
