The Ohio Random Thread... aka We Should Probably Be Working

[frenchy chan]

im so tired!!! I had to get up to go get my timing belt done in a couple hrs but I just wanna go back to bed!

oh and I haven't gone out to drink much since I just turned 21 a month ago but we definitely gotta get some ppl together and drink our asses of one night.

that could turn bad...."let's all go for a drive!"
all the more reason why i have never suggested a meet at a bar as much as i'd like it

It was 1:30 and we were at the lodge bar from 8 pm. (bird)

Anybody got a connection with a shop that does powdercoating? I've got another project....ha ha ha.

 

[fishdonotbounce]

I'd be interested to know this as well. I'm gonna have a few things I'll need powdercoated in a couple weeks.

I've seen a few places down by the airport...they look legit, it's just hard to tell. streetworkz?

 

[fishdonotbounce]

Hmm i dunno. Mine doesn't even have to be greatly done. I'm getting a gt-spec trunk cage soon and I wanna get it PC'ed black.

 

[03zoomzoom]

That would be nice. I'm just trying to clean up the engine bay a little bit. I've got my MSP v/c and engine cover so I can send out the stock v/c w/lettering. might have the strut bar done while I'm in there. Who knows what else I'll end up pulling off.

 

[fishdonotbounce]

Lol yea. I've been debating on getting a trunk cage for a while now and I've finally decided to pull the triger on one recently. They're just a good quality product.

I was looking at getting one of those seatbelt bars since the sedan doesn't really need a cage. found one on e-bay for $100. might end up getting a cheep HID kit too.

 

[fishdonotbounce]

Just go with a DDM slim kit from Xenon expert here. I think they're like ridiculously cheap now (like 70 bucks with lifetime warranty.) I've had mine for over 2 years and they're great.

 

[03zoomzoom]

OOOOO!!!!! I might have to look into that. I've been running Nokia bulbs for years. they're really nice, just want to try something else.

 

[fishdonotbounce]

Yea I ran Nokya bulbs for a couple years. The difference is indescribable. I can't drive non-HID cars at night now lol.

 

[03zoomzoom]

I've seen a million cars with HID, working at a Cadillac, Mercedes Benz and Lexus dealership.

 

[03zoomzoom]

Holy cow! If you want a bi-xenon setup you have to drop some serious $$$.

 

[frenchy chan]

there's some guy we found on craigslist that does powder coating. cheap...it's great if you don't need it to be perfect....
he did our strut tower bar and our oem wheels
i'll get the info from sean and get back to y'all

 

[frenchy chan]

here's his website
http://luxurypowdercoating.com/

we've noticed that his work is pretty sloppy, lots of imperfections, but it's super cheap and good for our winter wheels

 

[fishdonotbounce]

How much did he charge you for the strut tower bar? Thanks for the info (thumb)

 

[frenchy chan]

i think we talked him down...we ended up paying less than $200 for all four wheels and the strut tower bar to get done. if you want a lot of things powder coated the same color, he seems like he will make a deal since he already has the color mixed up.

but i think if we just did strut tower bar, it was going to be like $40. cheaper than doing it ourselves with spray paint!

BEER!!!!!!!!!!!!! I found a place that has 100 oz beers up by polaris. We should have a meet up there one time.
