Coming out of the woodwork just to say that it should have come from the factory like this. The 00+SSEi's always looked like they were missing a lip, and the one you added blends in perfectly. Great job.

(oh my god, it's worse than I thought... first post in three years, geesh...)

I completely forgot you guys had a portal... My bookmark always just went straight to the forums. The FSTN forums have a portal but it's mainly just a news aggregator... which I don't think anyone uses.

How are those wheels legal?

Nice find, Ryan...

To add my two cents, if that SE is in good running order, I'd just swap the L67 from your SSEi, part that car out and create Frankenbonnie 2!

Where are all the posts mentioning how surprising that *dang* Kia was?

Great weekend guys, like always! No matter what I drive, I'll always try my best to make the MI meet!

Now that our resident post whore has bought a G8, I think now would be a good time to change the name to Pontiac G8 club

Nice ride, Ed.

Alrighty, I think I'm going to make it up Saturday morning... I'll be there around 10, though, so I hopefully won't miss all the festivities. Looking forward to seeing you guys again! (and looking forward to meeting everyone I haven't met yet)

I'm debating on whether I'm leaving Friday or early Saturday... If I do leave Saturday, I'll most likely be there by 10am so I figure that most of you will still be getting your morning started. If I leave Friday, I'll probably be there between 8-9pm.

Oh also... Congrats Ryan!!!

Considering how sticky these tires are, it would more likely be the clutch than the engine, haha

After I install this tomorrow, you SSEis will see what a REAL FWD burnout looks like

Quite a few live in Ohio, but as Greg said... Not many are active (and sadly, that includes me). However they're a great group of guys and I'm sure I can round up a couple people who would be interested in a meet.

....and then there's that ST in the corner. :dontknow:
Yeah I'm definitely going to be the odd one out, lol.

While I'm at it, I might not be able to make it until Saturday afternoon, which probably won't give me anytime for detailing but w/e... Work has picked up and I'm working Saturdays again ...

Is it just me or are there going to be more G8s than Bonnevilles?

Peter... you may make me do some really irrational things... keep me away from your ST. :)
Haha, probably a good idea... it's addicting!

So I think I inadvertently did my next mod to the car last night... I found some fine swirl marks on my hood today, which is strange because I'm usually pretty ...

Hey Ryan, do we have any drives planned?

I'll probably be there around 9pm on Friday, and leave Sunday evening-ish. Maybe earlier depending on everyone else. BTW, do we have a list of people attending?

Also, and I know this is kind of a stupid reason... but I don't own a tent, lol. Is there any ways I can get some floor space?

Surprise surprise, I'm going too

Actually the Focus ST starts at $23.7k ($24.5k after destination) and that comes with ALL of the performance parts across the whole line (252hp 2.0 ecoboost, 6-speed manual, e-diff, torque vectoring) and other features including... Sync, Intelligent key, Sirius, and a bunch of other stuff I can't ...

I hate the Mazda. It sucks in all aspects. As of now I have no idea what I want next I'm just testing a broad range of cars to see what strikes my fancy.
You didn't like the Mustang?

What price range? $20k new car, or more expensive? Ford's bringing the Focus ST over here if he can hold out long ...

But inquiring minds what to know - what's next?!
Saw Cody randomly at the Ford dealer I take my Fiesta to... He was driving a Mazda3 of all things, although he never explained why, so I figured I should check the forums and lo and behold... *dang*, that sucks...

I do know what he was there to ...
