Where is this place, what is its name? I'm going to be needing a driver fender and front bumper cover and passenger mirror at some point and I'd prefer to get OEM so I know it fits right (though one guy here got an aftermarket front bumper from an ebay store and it was perfect, so I wonder about their fenders...). As long as the price is good too, I don't want to spend close to what a new one costs.
ill pm you with their information later when i get home. i dont have it with me right now.
was it tripplets? thats who we use to get used parts. they have complet front and rear ends. its typical to cut like that.
brandon - what h/c did you go with? you doing a rearend and tranny too?

it was Strickers. awesome place.....
anyways, i got the TSP 2.5 5.3's and an MS4.
i got a clutch, but the tranny should be ok. its in good shape. the rear will be purchaced this late spring or summer, kinda ran out of money. so when taxes come back, and i get a better job, im getting 12 bolt, cage, slicks and skinnies and a FAST/NW 90/90 setup. hoping for deep 11's
i just want to get it on the road now.
Eric, if your free one day on a weekend here in the next few weeks, id appreciate it if you would come over and give me a hand cutting the pistons and installing the cam. just let me know if you can, ill throw some gas money and lunch your way if your intrested.

Hey no rush don't worry about it. It won't be for a while that I get to fix mine up anyway, money and time aren't on my side right now.
