If that has the 93+ lip and includes shipping it's a good deal.

xltinlx · 10-27-2008, 05:08 PM

na mines fine but i just want those fog lights and the lip, and sell the rest. im just at home and its so boring.. so im just looking around for stuff lol

masagsxr · 10-27-2008, 05:26 PM

Hehehee.... Don't have a shift today huh? hhmmmm we need to bring the whole gang at your restaurant and keep you busy

Mark_Dorman · 10-27-2008, 05:27 PM

It'd probably be worth it. Cause you could sell the bumper to Cjung, your old fogs to Colin, and keep the lip and fogs for yourself...

Oh are you coming to the trot on the 16th???

xltinlx · 10-27-2008, 05:27 PM

i finally found a video very very similar to what my car sounds like right now..

You Tube

Mark_Dorman · 10-27-2008, 05:35 PM

That doesn't sound so good bro...

masagsxr · 10-27-2008, 05:43 PM

exhaust leaking anywhere?

Mark_Dorman · 10-27-2008, 05:57 PM

Yeah...kinda sounds like a leaking gasket or an EGR leak...

xltinlx · 10-27-2008, 06:01 PM

hmm im not sure if my exhaust is leaking or not, i gotta take it back to the shop and have him fix it kuz i didnt even touch anything ever since he worked on my car.. so hard to talk to him though, he speaks mostly spanish O_O

masagsxr · 10-27-2008, 06:05 PM

Say pinche wtf did u do to my car cabron hehehehehe j/k.. I'd check all the vacum lines. At one point my I had this fuel exhaust line that blew up and had a big hole and thats where my leak was coming from. Its by the intake manifold.

honda_bar · 10-27-2008, 06:10 PM

yeah, whats the condition of the bumper? Tin can, you will need that switch!

Springs are going in next week, with or without my hookup at claremont...

EDIT: Finally got in touch with my contact and will have some parts going in within the next two weeks! Finally I will get those bushings done......

Davis · 10-27-2008, 08:06 PM

Tin I think that is a great deal, you get a front bumper w/ 93 lip, fogs (I'll buy your old ones

) clear corners, and spare headlight covers.

But it sucks though, if you don't have everything for the motorized fogs to work. Oh..and shipping.......hmm it adds up now.

EDIT: Cute puppy!

xltinlx · 10-27-2008, 10:03 PM

yeah it sucks lol... i dont wanna buy everything hes offering, lets all pitch in and buy what we want ;]

Right, but what time is the meet, and how do I get on base?]

And yea, Ill come to the turkey trot!

Mark_Dorman · 10-27-2008, 11:34 PM

I'm not sure...I'll talk to matt in the next couple days. I'm sure we'll be there all afternoon. We'll probably start mid morning and go till we finish and grab food after or something. I'll keep you posted...

Cjung · 10-28-2008, 12:23 AM

hmm... wat did you guys pay for your own turbo lid?

and wats so great about em? :shrug:

Mark_Dorman · 10-28-2008, 12:47 AM

Colin got his for just under $100...mine was about $120. They provide better cooling, are lighter, and look way better...

honda_bar · 10-28-2008, 03:57 AM

i'll post pics of mine wednesday night!

If it's not too dark.

DavisFTW, thanks for offering your assistance with the springs, it's good to know you got my back!

Mark_Dorman · 10-28-2008, 04:29 AM

I'm jealous that you're gonna have your suspension done before me Colin

Oh well...hopefully I'll have mine done before the new year.
