Re: Painted my vents to match console trim

I honestly didn't notice them until the pic of the pass side. Looks good. Throw some shine on them and I might prefer those over my GXP's, nevermind, I don't see that happening

Re: MN Members: Lunch Meet, Sat. Nov 19?

Old Chicago closed down I believe. Last time I was by it, it looked empty and closed up from 23. Roadhouse and Grizzlys share a parking lot which makes them limited on parking. Roadhouse has mostly booths which makes it limited for large group seating. Keep in mind it is supposed to be low 30's and ...

That's how I do.


I switched to the 17's while my T/C system was acting up. Now that it's not acting up anymore and the tires on the GXP's are better than the RS/A's, there is no point in having an awkward looking car

Re: 2000 SSEi Mods

His intake is actually painted PVC piping. I don't really recommend PVC because it can get brittle in the extreme cold and it also traps heat really bad.

Ed is right, it's a home made piece. I made it with solid PVC and not the cell core that can get real brittle. I havent had any problems with ...
