Remember how dozer and I left to go do Taryan's rotors and brakes? well, dozer was jacking up the car with the OEM jack, and I was laying next to the car and had my head under on the passanger side by the jack telling him how much further he needed to jack it up to get the jackstand under and I also had my arm under the car holding the jackstand. I had the jackstand already under the car, we just needed a few more inches to get the jackstand under the frame. Now, the reason we were taking it up higher to get on the jackstand was because I told them how two of my dads friends have died from being under a car and the jack failing so they got crushed to death. So we had the car almost up high enough when the jack shoots out from under the frame. the car drops onto the jackstand which is located under the passanger floor at that time. The jack stand saved the car from falling onto my head. I don't think I ever moved so fast in my entire life!
edit: I also need to add that the passenger front wheel was already off at this time.

Nikko: j0! i'm tellin' you, ditch the foglights. Sell em' if they'll help you paint the bumper. The forum members that do have the re bumper have the foglights IIRC but no one has the one w/out foglights.
....then again...i remember rotr8 saying that there's actually no fogless bumper...might be just someone filling it in
well anyways....props either way if you can get your hands on it...it'll probably be pretty expensive tho...better save your paychecks homie
that or start takin' really good pic's and slangin' em'

There are some cool tucked away areas around here to take shots at. Mission Viejo Mall parking garage (by Saks) is nice to go to after stores are closed.

Yup! I know of a few more too. You're in Laguna Hills? I've never seen your car! Where do you drive most of the time?
