Did some prep work to the SS tonight, to get ready for STL.
*New front brake pads, the old ones were TOAST!
*Detailed all 4 inner wheel wells & under the car, had to make room for some new burnt rubber.
*Polished the Bogarts & cleaned the inner barrels of the SS wheels real good.
*Undid the heater hose mod, ie: put the stock isolators on the rear springs to raise the rear a little bit.
*Serviced the bullet proof 10 bolt!
Tomorrow night I am going to finish the buffing that I started last week. Maybe I can find a tenth with some slick paint!!! I even had time to pay Scott off for helping get the rear springs out & in, the HO got a quick buff in a few spots.

Looks like our "Kick-Off" Cruise could include a trip to the drag strip. Check it out. Check out the post by iroc mitch

I still have not gotten my car back from the shop!! (I hit a deer two weeks ago)... I was supposed to have my car back last Thursday... but they found more damage by the passenger fender (I guess I bent the frame a bit?)... so then they said I could get my car back Tuesday (Yesterday...) well, here we are... it's Wednesday, I called them and the guy was like "oh yeah, we forgot to fix the door (the deers leg took out the bottom of the door where it says "formula")
Now i'm supposed to be able to pick up my car at noon tomorrow. WTF. What kind of douchetards are working on my baby?
Oh... they gave me a loaner vehicle... a 2003 Cavalier. 4 Door. NO POWERED WINDOWS OR POWERED LOCKS. MY 1986 BUICK Regal even had powered locks and windows!! The check engine soon light is on in the Cavi (of course, it wouldnt be a Cavalier without that right?) and the brakes dont work too well...
Jesus... I need my car back.

I got my car back!
they gave me a FUNCTIONAL ram air hood! Hurray! But now I gotta go find an airbox and all of that fun stuff.... but still... my car looks a LOT better with a functional hood....
Went to advanced... the told me $389 for a K&N and Oreilly told me $450 for the same one.
Looked at summit... might get SLP?
