I got nothing much done on mine. just konig rims, apexi dunk
cat back, i put oem springs back on...thinking about getting
tein springs...I want springs that don't need camber kit.
oh...and it's nighthawk black...

i'm sorry tekwonv, but i'm thinking about getting greddy front
lips... and mugen sides and rear. I don't know if that'd be a good
match...gotta look for more body kits...I'm getting HID kits this week, my headlights are way too dark (stock bulbs). and hopefully
turbo(greddy or revhard) in january...i'm gonna test drive my friend's lude after he gets his jrsc installed. If i like jrsc, i might
change my mind and get jrsc as well...

tekwonv, everytime i see your lude, i say "damn!! i should've got
white one..." haha yours looks very tight..i like it man.
i'll never get black car later...i hate my lude...

I apologize. If I was anything like that I would know the difference. I am just a DIY certified kinda guy..heh.

certifications dont mean shit...IMO. i got L1 Master for two reasons:
1: the money.
2: i have never worked with anyone that had passed the L1 test...and people told me i couldnt do it....


i LOVE proving people wrong...

i think there is something about a homeade exhaust cutout, and blindly using a mig welder too!

there is also a test about seat and hood removal too...

Sorry Dan, I did not mean to jump down any ones throat. On the boards it’s hard to tell who knows whom so I wanted to make shore that any one that did not know Joey personally would know that he knows his stuff and is good on pricing.

Rob at K2 in Christiansburg is very knowledgeable about forced induction work. I would go talk to him.
