If its the storage place I'm thinking of, its kind of across the street from where Heavenly Ham is...right down Won Ju. Clay has taken his 997 Carrera to that guy before too. But that may not be the place!

I have taken my car there before. I was not impressed and I found the owner to be rude.

My car goes to Woodings now.

Just my experience.

well, there's not need to worry about it for now... the m3 had strobe lights and needed TREs, RTABs, ball joints, just to name a few... but it DID have strobe lights!

i saw them when i picked it up but didn't really know what exactly they were. it really didn't feel like all of that suspension stuff was bad to me? it felt moderately solid, not wobbly or anything. she only noticed anything when she was trying to get it over the base for the lift. when i drove it the first time i didn't really have a chance to look it over very carefully, i was pressed for time. when i got there today i was like "ehh that bumper looks off" then i went to inspect it and saw the lights. i knew the hood was a funny fit. i figured i'd take it in anyway.

Did you pop the hood the first time you checked it out?

The new black bondo says accident front left, and the green coolant screams silicate dropout like a mofo! haha

Oh yeah, and the mechanical controls for the climate/no traction control - those were only in 95s
