official COSMIC BLUE THREAD

took some pics with my point and shoot. She is shaven at the back now, had the holes welded not filled, it wasnt cheap and i dont recomend anyone else do what i did (headshake

as you can see, Blue is by far the best colour.(flame2)

looks like she is coming along very nicely. What tires are those? i am familiar with the wheels and it is cool to see good pictures of them on your car! ps. I am thinking i would like a blue or dark blue set of lug nuts come spring. I have black now. Any opinion? thanks

Thanks Eric.

230/40/18 exclaim uhp's, if i were you i would stick with the black nuts. I thought mine were some good pics, then i looked through the Black Mica pics thread and “Unoriginaluser” has posted some great looking photos, I need an SLR camera but have to convince wifey we need one first.
 
meha11 - Did you notice any poorer reception with the sharkfin? I was thinking of getting one of those. Nice ride, BTW - I miss mine (getting engine replaced).
 
thanks, sorry about the engine.

I can not think of any negative aspect to the shark fin at all, i have had it almost 2 years now and not one issue with it. No noticeable reduction in reception here in Houston. I got it from the RPM store already painted, they are a good vendor but we have to pay tax cos there in texas.
 


Picked them up off Ebay for $500, shipping included. Bottom right one needs to get touched up (5 little 1/4" rashes), but for the money, still beats the price of $289/wheel for new ones.

I want to say something cool like I German short haired pointer, but it's probably just a black lab.
 
Thats my pal right there, my wife rescued him from the pound a couple of years ago while I was offshore, he had a cold and they were going to destroy him so she had to make them go out the back and get him and actually insist on taking him (she had seen him on their web site). He is a mix, my best guess is Black Lab and Whippet which makes him a midget lab who can run his ass off. He goes everywhere with me and often runs beside me or my mountain bike or is my trail buddy when wheeling.
Heres us at the local 4WD parade last year where he went down a storm with all the kids in the crowd

good story about your little buddy! Do you guys have any more customizing in mind. My next purchase will be needed higher performance rotors and pads for spring and some wish list items.

Thanks guys.

dang thats a big chest but a good looker and snow, I haven’t seen any in years, I almost forgot how much fun it can be. I actually just turned down an assignment in Alaska but i think it will be far too cold to enjoy the snow.

As far as future mods go i think just to use the ap which i have had since june but was waiting until i swapped out some stuff. Then only a rear sway bar and side/trans mounts. No other plans after that but i know too well that you can never say never, someone somewhere will make something and i'll buy it.
 
Allow me to recommend the rear sway. Easy to do, relatively inexpensive and it really changes the cornering attitude. I takes away understeer or push. My buddy, who is old school muscle car was riding along was fairly amazed that afront wheel car could be driven sideways under acceleration. I was alittle also. I cannot post anymore this week because i am apost ***** i hear so.. Best luck and enjoyed. thanks. ps I have Hotchkis front and rear on the stiffer rear setting. But a Cobb would do you just as well I believe. I do not recommend the front unless you enjoy a fairly pita difficult install. as you know feel free to pm. Eric
 
Here is my CB that I picked up a week and a half ago. I'm seeking to get HID and yellow fogs next. Although I have been using the search button, if you guys have any recommendation on which ones I should get, please PM me. (Thinking of 5000k or 6000k, like the ones on Acura TL and Lexus')
