I havn't even booted up my xbox dude! lol
I got Polk speakers also just sitting on the shelf.
Plus, i was waiting for the mechanic to fight with the stock endlinks so if he needs to cut em off, it's already done, since I don't have the tools.
So, when I get the car back, i'll get under there and take off the freshly installed OEM endlinks and throw the AWR's and Progress bar under it

Yeah... Just sounds like a little waste of effort on the mechanic's part. The amount of time spent cutting the rears off (if required) is about the same amount of time to put the new bar on. Other than the sake of having new end links, I would have told them just to remove the rears, and you'd put your stuff on when you get the car back. It's not really unsafe to run no rear sway. I do each winter to prevent mine from getting ruined.
Hmm. May take more than spring bolts to fix that. Here's what I'd do in your position. I'd have an exhaust shop fab up a custom exhaust with a high-flow cat, and your existing pieces. Wouldn't cost much, and everything will fit properly.
if he can't fix the exhaust leak, i'll prob run it back up to get it a new midpipe. Then, i am still waiting to get a painting quote on the bumper as well. Still no answer at the mechanic's. He had a zillion cars on his lot this AM when I drove by
Do they do state inspections in FL? In VA they have yearly state inspections but it's a year from the last time it was inspected. For example, I bought my car and had it inspected in June of '05 so my '06 and '07 inspections were due by the end of June each year. Because most people wait until the last minute this typically swamped auto shops at the end of the month. Just saying, perhaps this is why he's so busy?
OH is nice, I just send a check with money every year before my birthday and that's it. No inspections or anything

Ordered Medieval Front MM ($40), GTSpec trunk reinforcement panel ($30), and GTSpec 4 pt. crosslinks ($30). Probably the BEST $100 I will ever spend on this car lol.
And before you ask where I got the GTSpec stuff so cheap, here you go: http://motors.shop.ebay.com/merchant/gtspec-autosports

Yeah, you might as well just sell them. The pay-it-forward thread has devolved into something where you have to ensure whoever takes what you offer up has something of equal value to someone else. Not sure who's or what guidelines determine an item's value to someone else but seems to be the trend. I can see the point but shouldn't be the previous item offerer's place to determine that, more like a mod function. Still, defeats the purpose of the title of the thread. More like a twist on a WTT thread now.

yeah, some of the people are missing the point of that thread. I nixxed the fact that the redpro guy wanted to put up a busted HU in exchange for the kenwood that was up, im sorry but that doesnt fly...
