AP under-driven crank pulley. It's a wash used; overpriced new.

Hey Nate, do you still have those rear brake light stickers that you used to have? If you still have the Batman one, somehow my car acquired the nickname the batmobile, and I'd take it off your hands. lol

I dont think the pulleys are worth getting unless you want bling.

On a side note I installed my HID fogs and the LED parking and corner lights yesterday. Still waiting for the HID headlights to come in. But damn it looks so much better at night, the fogs are almost enough to drive with by themselves.
Oh and now I think im gonna gave to get some clear corners beacase the LEDs light up my sidemarkers orange now and its kinda fugly.

Adam, look into the clear corners that have their backs painted TiGrey. Those would prolly look pretty sweet. I think I saw them on Rotaryfx.

Go for it Andy. It definitely couldn't hurt.
And yeah, that's true adam. I wasn't sure how they would glow or reflect at night.

00004rx8 not sure where at in Belleville but i live in Swansea, and i know baseballgenious (whose rarely on here lives somewhere in the area)

as far as a club i would just stick with the one you have found here. 8club is full of info you need and good people (for the most part) make sure and show up to some of the meets that should be startin soon.

Charlie imma have to talk to you about the Miami area...possibility i may be movin down there in 6 months or so.
