amsgator said:lol. i am stuck using steel wool i think. i dont wanna use sand paper since it leaves specs of residue and all and I cant find any scotchbright pads other than the heavy duty ones used for cleaning.
Emory(sp?) cloth might work as well

there might be a GB on jethot...do a search on the forums
hm...never thought of that. have to check into it.
right now i'm in the middle of painting my badges black. one layer of black left and then clear and i'll be done w/ the two flying Ms. The protege 5 and mazda badge will have to wait I think because I have to go to work at 7 and still have some studying i have to do and lectures i have to watch.

Yeah, I just grabbed a scotchbrite wheel and threw it in the drill. Not too worried about the finish. It looks better than it did anyway. Plus, I still have been tossing around the idea of wrapping it anyway........

i have to work 7-10 so i wont be able to take pics til after i get off.Proved my P5-T is faster than some RSX. I have no idea what was done to it aside from being lowered/wheels/exhaust. I wasn't trying to race but the guy was being a royal ass and instead of driving normally he tailgated me for about a mile (I was already doing 12 mph over) then tried to pass me as I turned at a stoplight (wtf?!) so I gunned it going around the corner in 2nd and walked him from there. For reference it was 2 AM and I'm in Blacksburg, VA = no people. All the non-college folk were asleep and all the college folk were passing out.

bought some msp pedals off ebay for $30 (2thumbs)
I got a CEL during the ELEVEN hour drive back to Rochester.. should have been 5 hours 30 minutes ugh snow/slush + summer tires + major, major car accident in MA holding things up.
As for the CEL.. I think the car just didn't like the extreme rain? I'll have to get the code pulled, but won't have time to do that until.. Tuesday evening at the earliest.
The car kept doing this hardcore sputtering if it went past like 4 or 5ish psi in 5th (like if I pushed the "resume" button after getting stuck behind a slow moving vehicle). I don't know if it was fuel cut or a misfire or what is going on. Car was still totally driveable, just kept it out of boost for the rest of the trip back (the CEL came on when I was about an hour from my destination).

thats one of my favorite things iv done. Totally changes the look of the back, and with tinted tails it looks awesome. I need to get new tails and get them re-tinted, the gaping hole in one of mine is killing me.amsgator said:Well I painted my badges today... here are the pix. i love how it turned out
