Am i weird for not having any feelings when driving? The most feelings I'll catch is if some asshole cabbie cuts me off particularly dangerously and I'll make it a point to show him he was wrong (and I'm NOT talking about a one finger salute). Maybe I just need a faster car?

its in the pit of your stomach
when you mash that gas
sweepin' your body with a
coupla g's
restless, relentless, endless acceleration;
try it once - and you'll never resist temptation.
nah, y'all I ain't rappin - I'm just makin' conversation

thank you. just bought a caliper paint kit. its brush on so i dont have to take them off and bleed the brakes. its the easy way out but im not trying to spend 6 hours painting my hubs and calipers. hopefully it gets here by friday so i can get this shit over with this weekend.

I have till june 20th to decide if im going to buy the umnitza front and side skirts. If i decide against it then i will most likely never do a kit unless i find a used painted one for a decent deal.

calipers and hubs?

trust me when i say it will look 900x better. when i walk up to my car right now i cant help but look at a partially rusted caliper and get pissed. same with the hubs. wish i could get some rotors but of well. it will look good when im down painting. dont worry i will take before and afters. i take tons of pictures.

sorry for the thread jack.
