Yeah tell me about it, on the agenda for my car is a full paint job, and it's a color change at that! Then I'm gonna do a few little upgrades to the engine itself since it's gonna be on a stand anyways while the engine bay is getting painted

Yes indeed, sad thing is that it was just painted in Oct '07

I'm just tired of the black, time for something a little more unique

Hmm now its close enough for me to make this year, gotta get my changes done, tuned and some test passes before I go.
