Oh really? I've got class there every mon and wed from 9:30 till 12:15, and then a night one on thursday at 6:30. Don't think I've seen your car tho; I’ll have to look out for it next time. Would love to see it when it’s lowered, how much is that setup?

Thanks man. Yea to tell you the truth, I’m not too crazy about em either. They were just on there when I bought it. Just waiting to see if they look ne better when the cars lowered. I’m Kinda looking for some deep dish 5 spokes… if anyone has em or something like it, im up for a trade

Do you know where the economy health food store is on 436 across from the brick walgreens? I live in a sub-division all the way in the back of that road. Is that ne where around you?

Yea I know what you mean. I’ve seen a purpleish shade on my car in certain lighting as well, but w/e still love the color. Your car no doubt looks sick man. How much is it lowered by? Looks like just the right size drop, just curious if you have any trouble getting around town now.

That's pretty close to me I live right off of 434 and Maitland Blvd by the Chik-fil-a, you know anyone that lives back there? Seems like every time I'm out washing my SS (which is also NBM) I see a NBM T/A turning into my neighborhood but going in the opposite direction from my house...

lol, when did I claim you weren't joking with him?

Getta life?

lol, why are you butthurt? I said NBM is a fantastic color. I called it beautiful... It only looks that way in your sig, that's all... You just said right now that it can look a bit Mauve in the right light... Big difference from the pics the OP posted and many other NBM that post here too... If anything, I'm complimenting your car, thinking it deserves a better pic in different light maybe... "Getta life"? lol... Very mature dude!!! Is that really necessary?

You should re-read those 30 PM's... They might cheer you up a bit so you don't have to tell people to get a life lol.

I dont drive my SS to work to much but if i do I park it on the side at the loading dock cause im not parking with the rest of those crazy students its crazy there they will park anywhere. I work in the Library im usually at the front desk so come on it. the koni and strano setup is 275 for springs and 77o for the shocks. If you go with bilstien i think there just under 400 See ya around.

Oh yea I know where that’s at. One of my good friends lived in that neighborhood but moved to cali a couple months ago. So I dunno, maybe it was me you saw, but if you've still seen that blue t/a there recently (like in the last couple months) than that rules me out.

Yea man parking there is insane! I wish I had another vehicle I didn’t care much about to drive cuz I hate parking my car there as well...but yea dude I might stop in some day and say whats up.

Hmmm yea I guess I wouldn't be opposed to those wheels, but I was really wanting to stick with deep dish...and not too sure if I want black, although I have thought about it.
Well maybe I’d consider doing a trade if you also wanted to throw in some cash? :/

Nice looking TA. Once it's dropped it should look better with those wheels.
