I've spoken to a sales guy @ www.autoaccessorydirect.com and we can get a deal if we get some people together. I'm also going to post it on PTalk, so let me know early if you are interested. The plain CF kits are 165, so I want to get that under 125. Should be no prob. They also have wood, and colored CF.

I don't think it was, but I'll blame it on that anyway. I'm going to yell at someone.....

I wish I could be sympathetic, but I live in the sticks and can't get above 31k for speed with earthlink. That's why I post more here (at work)! I think I need that satillite direct PC thing! Dial-up sucks!

The thing I dont like about those Satellite PC things is that you still need to dial-up a computer for uploads :tdown: but the downloads will definately be faster. So why do you live out in the sticks again? What city was it, Lino Lakes?

Nope, it's Elk River. You know, where they found the Terrorist!:eek: I live there because it's cheap. I can't get myself to pay the prices they want for apartments in this area (Eden Prairie).:eek:

It was in the papers in the last day or so. He was in the Sherburn Co. jail when the planes crashed, then transfered to Washington a day or so ago. Here's a link to one of the stories:

yeah, he's a dumbass. He is working at an auto body shop and is spending money that he doesnt even have. He just bought a $2100 couch and put it on financing and bought "the most expensive microwave best buy had." And when he called the cable people he got the most expensive digital cable you can buy, $110 per month

Domestic>Ford>Probe accesories

Some of those body kits are SWEET!:drool:
I really want to see some real pictures of them though. The computer models look really sweet but you never know until you see the real thing.
To bad I don't have the money right now for a good bodykit/rim combo right now...:(

Haha, as the single owner of a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom 1900 sq ft. house and a new Mitsubishi Eclipse, I can tell you, you don't. You see me on here every night, right? No more going downtown and spending 50 bucks everynight for me, it's back to homebrew and movie rentals. Problem is chicks don't randomly stop by that way, you have to get out and meet them. But you don't have the money so you think of selling and getting something cheaper so you do have money to go out. But you realize it's expensive everywhere you live or what you do! You make your bed you sleep in it I guess. I lived on 10 grand a year in school including tuition at the U. Now it's over 50 a year and I don't feel any different. So it's a real quandary, yep.
OK, rant turned off.
Hi!

the exterior on a car can look like shit in a matter of a couple years. Engines can go a lot longer. anyway...My point is I'd rather spend money making the car faster than making it look better. Mostly because I like the sleeper idea. I'm not trying to impress anyone.

I'm not trying to impress anyone. that makes total sense and i agree.... my point when i did my probe was that looking good was legal and going fast, isn't.... however that was when i was ignorant. now i know that if your car looks good, you're guilty!

I guess I am trying to impress people, but I'd rather do it by kicking their ass in a race than by having my car so low it scrapes everything.

See if you could score a sweet deal, then people would be all over it.
1/2 price with at least 20 orders. You'd have 30 or 40!
$10 off. No thanks, I'll wait till I have the money and spend the extra 10 bucks to get it when it is more convinent.
