are you taking walk ins or do you need an appointment?
I'd also be interested to know. I don't want to schedule an appt and not be able to donate because of a few military related questions I need answered.
-
Right on!
Btw, again, I really appreciate you stopping by, and handing off the short shifter! It was great to meet you, and I look forward to seeing you out on some runs once I get myself put back together.
You guys had a great afternoon, by the sounds of it. But, a bad day of turning wrenches is better than a good day of work. I love working on cars.
Not a problem, gave me another reason to drive Gremlin a little more.:rock:
Wow, that looks so solid. Love that look. Can't wait for nutty to get dropped.. someday..someday.....Someday, like "TO"day?

I didn't think I would do this but thought of something for Johnny today
I'll talk to you Saturday, Ali to see if its been done before.Pirate? I think he's a pirate...Or, 3M hood scoop with Subaru badges!

Finally got around to installing the DIY air splitter I had laying around.
-
I'm looking for white PD as well. I'd take them off your hands too.I'll definitely pick up one or more of the white if you have any left.. I was planning on striping the sides with a "ghost" matte white- Think that will look good..
When are you available?
I think I have 3 cans left, I know for sure I have at least 2. I'm available all weekdays after 5pm. Or I can bring them with me to the Saturday meet.
Let the bidding war begin! :laugh:
-
Holy prep-work Batman! :laugh:
Looks, good. I have some white cans for sale if you're interested in the future. I bought them but decided not to use them, save on the shipping costs.
-
Nope wasnt me.....I avoid the Inner and Outer Loops like the plague...Sterling is close enough to DC for me..
That's good, but I still hope that persons MINI recovers quickly.
-
No this was about 10 mins ago.
-
Seen a gen1 that looked like nharrison mini being towed off 395s just before the king st exit.
-
That actually is pretty spot on to the height/fitment would like to shoot for.
Looks great, and good form, but it's not form over function. Let us know after a while how it is for your daily!
:top::top:
Thanks, I'm going to raise the rear up a bit.

Jennifer and I were in the Subaru heading south on 15 when the 'Great Pumpkin/Apple Run' folks drove by. We waved and flashed you. Rather, we flashed the lights
I seen the "flashing" Subie lights, I waved and wondered who it was. Now I know.

I got the privilege of being behind Gremlin on the run today. Mark and I were admiring the stance and the boot. Then there was the rumble, I especially liked the combined rumble of our Tigger and Gremlin's exhaust together.
Looking Good!!! :top:
Unfortunately I'm still deaf and I can barely hear my own exhaust, wish I could have heard them N'Sync. Yeah I went there, what of it? :laugh:
-
A big Thank You to Laura for organizing a fun day out! My first time to GCF and I had a great time! :top:
She did do a great job! It was also my first GCF and we had a blast.
-
For anyone that didn't have the opportunity to see Gremlin today, riding a bit low.
-
I just checked the "What's Picking" page at Great Country Farms. Not pumpkins.
Honey crisp apples can be picked.
I'm not changing the name of the run to the Great Apple Run, though.
They did have Punkin Picking, my daughter picked two.

Picssssss
I would have taken pics, but I had to get home to wash the car before I get made fun of by Craig for not washing Gremlin before a meet.
I think Mike is still trying to find a tripod that's low enough to do this justice! We had to laugh when he took the car off the jack stands the first time. Not only was there no wheel gap, the rubber was STUFFED! I'm pretty sure a #2 pencil would have been an obstacle! Back up in the air, adjustments to be made.We'll get some pics at the pumpkin-less pumpkin run later today. We might be able to get a few of the lowered cars together for it.
It was pretty funny watching the car go down and not being able to pull the floor jack from underneath. If I had the bonnet closed majority of the tire would be tucked.
I get off work at 9am, So a few redbulls And I may see you guys for the start of the run! Can wait to see pics if I cant make it out hahaI'm not slammed or anything, just low enough to reduce the amount of wheel gap and still make it a reasonable DD.
-
Thanks to Craig and the GarageMahal, he helped me install my coilovers.
-
I ended up going with V-Maxx, I came across a great deal on brand new set that I couldn't pass up.
-
Man I gotta install mine asap..
Why are you waiting?
So, who wants to help me install my coilovers?
Also installed my rear tower brace.
-
I surrender! Compared to you guys - AND YOU Brandy, I am a PD Novice... That really was a nice look you had there Mike! Very impressive.
Now ideas are percolating and the fall colors run is coming up soon...
I've PD 1 Honda civic in black, my MINI white/black, and a set of wheels in Blaze Orange. Yes Ali, there is a bright Orange. :laugh:
Craig are your ideas staying a secret? Or will you fill us in on your devious plans?
-
Man that looked real good. do it again~!!!!
If I do this again, it will be black. It would require less PD cans, because trying to change it to white takes so many cans! haha
-
wow, that came out really good
Thanks, it took some time.
very nice!!! like the b&w. i thought you had a new exhaust?This was a while ago, I took off the PD before I started going to DCMM meets.
so how many cans did that take? Lol16 cans I think..?
Good Lord!Do the Plasti Dip people know the cult like following they have? WOW!
Is that a WHITE plati-dipped MCS?? From the camera shots, I gotta say, Damn, looks pretty nice for a driveway job, would LOVE to see it in person, and take a real look at it. Only thing I would have done different, is left the rear inserts to each side of the reverse lights black. . .but I mean, wow, that's pretty damn good for a lot job(I would send PD Pics!).
My Li'illi Ka'a has been sitting, Dad used it for the time he was here helping me post-op, and glad to have it being turned over. BUT, I finally managed to make the walk out to the resident lot I had to park it at, in my space(My handicapped pass is in use by Dana so she can tote me around) and was doing a walk around. . . .my poor MINI, it's in such sad shape, if it made me want to cry, I can only imagine how SHE feels. . .
It had had a day with Mr.Rockwell at Alexandria getting all new brakes, rotors, and a few other lil things, so I wanted to just SEE my MINI. . . My. MINI. IS. FILTHY.
My rims, that I did well over a year ago, look like they might be in need of some TLC and this thread has certainly got me thinking of the PD route.
Does the PD dry texture free? Is it a flat product? For some reason I have always though of it as more of a spray in bed liner type "paint", you know, with a little texture to it, or am I way off in this assumption?
Never sent pictures to the PD company, but they do know of the PD following that's why they're coming out with so many different product lines.
PD is a rubberized spray an when it dries it is in a "flat"...think of a texture of a black garbage bag but flat on the exposed side.^^^This.

Anyone recognize this MINI?
In the middle of PD
Thought I finished once it got dark, but realized when I drove it the next day that I still had a little more PD to add.
