Red face "retard alert retard alert"

Well guess my old account got deleted,but let me start off by saying sorry to my fellow LS4 fam bam...

This is 1 CLEANSUP3RSPORT,

As all of you know I was gonna loan my car to get the headers done for the LS4 fam bam.I had talked to williamgt b4 drop off,and told him I was gonna do a tune up on the imp...well long story short,end up spending almost $1400 on new master cylinder,couple of brake lines,sum seals in the rotors,new brake pads... my dumb *** put power steering fluid in the brake resovior,and didn't relize it till the next day at work... after I drove it to work and then sears to get a brake flush to see if I could save it... but it was to late the brake/power steering fluid was already sludge... and I broke down and had to take her in to the stealership to get fix... I feel like the biggest retard!!!




But never again will I do a tune up on my car on a Monday after a 12hr day(4am-4pm) at work and a 2hr of soccer practice (daughter,son)... what can I say it was a Monday,lol...


Well glad to see the header are still going down,and hope all you guys can forgive a SPECIAL RETARD....


Peace,

Dom

Man, after that situation a free set of headers would make me feel better lol.

Sucks to hear about your mishap, too bad you missed out on the free headers. Glad you got her back on the road.
