Cody,

Are you still happy with the way your car turned out? Is it holding up? Did you buy anything to coat it with? I was down there this weekend, but didn't have a second to meet up with you. Saw the car outside of the bank on Northwestern, but was busy running an orientation thing. Dinner is still on sometime this semester.

Ed

Oh, and just so everyone knows...there is a mean E55 AMG Wagon out in town now...the cars pretty fast, but the driver probably has never driven anything faster than an Aveo.

Cody,
Yes, I want to see the results on your car as well. When are you going to have it out again?

Ed, the car still looks amazing! You did a great job on it. I installed new shocks and spring and I am currently trying to figure out why the drivers side back shock is squeeking like crazy, its annoying as hell. I think I may have gotten a bad shock. I am waiting on a set of drag radials to get here and then I will be hitting the track up to see if I can better my bolt on time of 13.2.

Nate, as far as the cruise, count me in! I may have the "squeek mobile" out tomorrow if its nice. Txt me if you are out.
