Hey guys if we I'll be working on the 5th in the morning. If we can't make it on the evening of the 5th, can we do the meet two weeks after that?

I am in the same boat as Kris and I can only make the meets every other week. That would be September 19th.

Dark,

By the way nice drivers side door. I thought you said it was a small thing?

I saw your ride in the parking lot today around noon, off Fowler in Tampa. By the wing stop.

Hell from the look of it you might want to replace the door.

just an fyi you rarely need to replace the door on the eight... they are made up of two parts... there is like a metal sheet that can be removed and replaced rather then replacing the entire door. Its strange i know but when I hit a deer there was a huge dent, make that dents all down my drivers side. no replacements. WAY OFF TOPIC I KNOW

Alright, my grandma is letting me use her laptop for the time being. We didn't make it as far as we had hoped today, so I am outside Harisburg PA now. I probally wont be there until Monday. I see you are trying to get a meet around for September, so that sounds good.

the panels that seperate from the doors are by NO menas a DIY. It has to be cut off and a new one needs to be fused on... the idea is to cut costs if and when the door is slightly impacted. If its just a small dent you can always try one of those "plunger tools" (dent doctor) and try yourself. but I always just suck it up and give it to my body shop

So we down for the 5th? It would be a great weekend to get out as everyone should be off. It will only take a couple of hours out of the weekend.

I'm in Tampa now...Brandon to be exact. The one thing that is going to suck the most besides looking for a job is trying to learn the area.

Diveboy,

I believe you are correct on the 5th.

Did we ever decide on a time?

I have experience in car detailing and lawn care. My last job was Burger King but I would like to stay away from that if possible.
