Not that you're that rowdy, but sometimes we all need to remember how things work around here, and play nice.

I've seen some spamming that will stop, and some bashing of sponsors that needs to be reeled back in.

I've been on this site since day one or two, I forget now, so I've seen and been a part of a lot of different changes on this site. I still have a passion for my car, and this hobby and site, and want to see it continue to evolve and grow.

Cool!! .... but huh, I thought you were a mod already. This is one the few forums ive stuck with over the years as it for the most part stays relatively free of bs.

I try to balance the line between fast car and nice, clean, comfortable and stylish car, so power and FI mods are just as important to me as a nice looking car.

I may DIP my car this winter for something new and different, we'll see. Stay tuned.

Yeah I dunno Brien...I dipped a few things on mine and my daughters '14 challenger, in the end I either removed it or replaced it with powder or painted so for me it just does'nst fill the bill per say.
Speaking of dipped; I noticed some black a/c items on your car? Either the pic I saw was really poorly lit or you either painted or had some a/c parts anodized on your car, whats the scoop, they look very nice.

Here's the beauty in dipping a car, if done right/well, it looks good, and is a temporary / semi permanent paintjob. I want to do it as a test to see if I like a color. I have a friend who does it, so it will basically cost me a couple hundred dollars to dip it a different color. I did the same thing when I was thinking about powder-coating my wheels. I dipped them first, like it, then had them powder-coated.

Is that what you're referring to? Yes, I sprayed some stuff the last time I had my motor out. I used a HVLP gun to do it, so it came out well. It's actually a Rustoleum hammertone that I thinned with some solvents, which got rid of the hammertone effect, but left the color I liked. I did a bunch of experimenting before I finally got to an effect/color I liked.

As long as its being used for its CORRECT purpose of "mock-up", carry on
