Congrats on the ti and welcome to the forum friend! You've got quite the car there already. You'll find the community here is pretty helpful, as it's already saved me over $1.5k in repairs, and the response time is often ridiculously quick. Again, congrats and welcome to the forum...your car is sexy!  __________________  |  |  | | 06-16-2008, 05:22 AM | #3 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2007 Location: LA, Bellflower, CA Posts: 3,613 |

Thanks guys... look forward to learning a lot. All the ACS pieces are authentic, but they need to be repainted.
I live in Ventura County (Oxnard, to be specific). Been hanging out with Jess and learning so much already. | | | | | 06-16-2008, 05:47 AM | #5 | | Senior Member Join Date: Mar 2007 Location: Calgary/Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Posts: 379 |
How much did you pick that bad boy up for. Looks so sick! I wish when I bought mine it came with a bunch of Schintzer goodies......Bastard.
Good luck with any future mods......If you can even add anything else to it. | | | | | 06-16-2008, 05:50 AM | #6 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2007 Location: LA, Bellflower, CA Posts: 3,613 |
