Haha, totally. It's all time and money...

I've decided to not drink anymore so I can save money for my car, is that what they mean by doing the right thing for the wrong reasons?

Voted confederate flag on the roof

thats offensive, but then again :wgaf:

Ok guys, I need your help. I'm at a loss for a color for my strut housings and subframes and such, I'm tempted to just go body color (zinno) but that might be too ghey. Yellow makes it a german flag, blue is too team america and green would be too christmas. I'd try something like purple but I don't want it to seem too Newman-esque...

Ideas?

black. or possibly white, with the M stripes at an angle on one side.what color wheels are you going with?

Black...

Or gunmetal.

[george graves]

Lime green. Sort a light shade of green looks fun on a red car. Not christmas-ie.

[yberther]

^ yes.

or just black.

[Fidhle007]

All of our restorations get black and all of our track cars get gray (I'm not sure it's really a formula, it just happens that way) so I'm trying to get away from that. I have ST sways which are lime green so if I can match that color I may go that route. If not I'm leaning red (if I can match it closely enough) or yellow.

Pearl white. Keep it clean too, God dammit.

So tonight I was at a loss for a "useful" project so I machined some delrin spacers for my strut housings. My housings have never quite had the perches in the right place or I have the wrong threaded sleeves but either way they still function properly. These spacers go between the gland nut and the top of the threaded housing and are more for looks then anything else except to maybe prevent rattling...?










I did manage to get some sandblasting done though, which means I'm that much closer to having to make a color decision.

Here's the whole setup together:

Oh hai! I also like where this is going. Too bad you couldn't find a nice M3 shell to swap into...
