The MS bumper is the same height as the stock bumper w/appearance lip. So, you must have taken it at a different angle, or at a different speed. I have scraped mine several times on the bottom....it is not visable to anyone, so you'll be fine. Bumper looks good. Do you have foglights...are you going to get the brackets and do the install of the foglights...just a quick word of advice...it takes forever, so make sure you leave yourself a good 2 or 3 hours.

MUCH is the word of the day. Normally, a set of stock wheels costs 4000-500 dollars on the forum, and a set of r-compounds would be close to a grand with mounting and balancing....so 500 for everything is quite a steal.

...and remember, you'll have just as much fun on your stock tires....for now

I saw it. Now what? My number is correct.
Did you want us to respond to something on that thread, or just look how many you're ordering for us, or remind us that we need to pay you?

Also, is the price per calender because of the group rate or is that what it will cost regardless of quantities?

view the thread:
-just to make sure your quanites are correct
-make sure method of payemnt will work
-make sure the price is ok

that is the price per calender, my wife is giving us a discount and it is being printed out of house but bound in house. if you took this job somewhere else it would be nowhere near that price. reguardless of quanities.

Happy Holidays to all. It has been a rough one for me. I just moved to a different job. So now is the trick of getting the right saturdays off. My new years resolution is to make it to more meets and events in the rotary community.
Happy Chrismahannaquansa to all. And make it a safe new year.

STORY OF THE WEEK

i got a phone call from my little bro @ 11pm last night, and his apartment got robbed while he was at work... he was practically cleaned out... his new computers(both his and his girlfriends), 99% of his dvds (around 200, including his super expensive japanese imported ones), dvd players, and just about everything else you can think of..

so now, not only did he get robbed, but his lady refuses to live there anymore, so they are moving out of thier apartment today and putting whats left in storage....so because of this, they lost all their stuff and their home.... im trying to get them to stay at my house rent free until they get back on their feet.. but we'll see

im lost on what i should do... i wanna help them, but dont know how... do you guys think i should start some sort of donation thingy? people just give what they can spare (and since its after christmas, it wouldnt be much).... what do you think? they could send it to my paypal, and i could give it to them? ill post it all over myspace and everywhere i can think of.... does it sound like a good idea? (sorry if im ranting, i was at his house till 2am helping them sort things out)


if you do, and think you might wanna help... araines21@hotmail.com is my paypal...

^ Sorry to hear, and right after Christmas too.

Gerry, I'm free the fist weekend of Jan. p.m. and we can set a time to meet up.

Keith, I think it may be the same height but I think the bumper extends a little more than the stock as I took my car at the same angle and slowly approached it. I'm in the process of touching up the scrape with my airbrush, should be an easy fix, it was a pain in the *** to match the paint at the local paint shop though. Also just bought some lexan sheets to cut some splitters out.

Can't wait for the next meet.

Jessie, since they were renting, they may want to check with the complex manager to look at their rental agreement..sometime they offer "renters insurance"...some places even include it in the rent.

I don't know the nature of where they are staying, or what security is offered at their place.

I have never rented an apartment, but maybe for those who have, maybe they can lend some advice on who/what/ or how to go about checking to see if they have any routes to go, in addition to filing a police report.

yeah, they talked to the managemnet... their apartments were low income apartments, so there was no policy like that.... hell, the police officer that came to the apartment said that in the past 2 days, 5 apartments in his complex were robbed! that was pretty much the final "hey, we need to move"... so he got a storage unit for his remaining stuff and is staying in his girlfriends dads living room....

ok guys, I hate to keep bringing up the auto cross thing in here. so I will only mention this once from now.

the practice opened up, I just talked to scotty, so far he knows about

1) Michelle B
2) Mike T (check will be from Bill Brier)
3) Erica R./Keith W.
4) Cesar A

payments need to go in ASAP.

Cameron Walters
3400 Poly Vista ave.

If anyone else wants to get in you need to make up your mind now. and put your name on the list IN THE AUTO CROSS FORUM, and send in your check.

That is all.
