  1. On my random Craiglist searching, I came across this gen 1 body kit. I figured I would share for any Gen 1 guys out there.:top: http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/pts/4949489852.html
  2. So to clarify you want to replace the rotors, pads, and calipers? Ali is right, rich said his place is always open and he has a lift if I remember right. That would make life easier for sure. Try sending him a private massage. I have a hand pump brake bleeder, and the cube for the rear caliper (it sucks to use). You can borrow the good caliper tool with the dogs from autozone. You shouldn't need the caliper tool if you are replacing them though. If you can't use rich's sweet setup. I can always lend a hand for some driveway wrenching.
  3. Dan, How much time did the first corner take and how much time will you be able to knock off with lessons learned. Are you replacing with coil over kit or just the springs.
  4. I do laugh at dealer prices, often the same OEM parts are 50% cheaper through rockauto or other online source. Point on the bear where they touched you.:rofl:
  5. You forgot to mention it is from MINI's 50 shades of grey collection. Lol
  6. Jeremy, Roof rack looks great:top:, it on the list of things to add to the wifey's MINI. I have always through they look good.
  7. See all the work people have been doing, made me get my but in gear. Since it was a nice warm day I decided to install the A-panel wrap, bandy won in the MTTB raffle (donated by Itchy Pig) Started by cleaning the MINI and Clay Barring the A-panel. To get a clean look with no visible edges I removed the scuddle, beltline, and fender flare from the panel. Dry fitted the vinyl and rough trimmed to the panel I used the wet application method (special thanks to Laura for the tips). Trimmed the excess and this is the final result. The wind kicked up as I was finishing the drivers side, so hope to get the passenger side done tomorrow.
  8. Thanks all. It's not me though the kiddies have it.
  9. What do you mean by suspension stuff. Sway bar, springs, coil cover kit, etc. just so we can have an idea of the effort and additional tool required for the job.
  10. I do it twice a year. Once in the spring and once in the fall. I doubt mind doing as a group.
  11. Sorry, I have to back out. The stomach bug has hit our house.
  12. Sound like a good idea.
  13. Now there is proof Rey is your favorite. :hahaha:I like the idea of Rey being in charge.
  14. is there a particular spot in the bar we are meeting:questionmark:
  15. I disagree the sweet looks make you stop ten feet shorter. Also every aftermarket performance sticker adds 1.5 bhp. Lol
  16. I was going to answer, but looking at your header you have figured it out
  17. Brandy and I will be there, look forward to seeing everyone.
  18. I wonder what the time added is for 36hp and 10 inch rims. Welcome I am sure the group can covers all your interests. Also match.com may be a bit to classy for this crowd. We are more like craigslist personals.
  19. Showing up with fireworks would definitely endear yourself to the group. Welcome look forward to meeting you soon.
  20. That's a check list. Making me feel lazy. I keep using the garage is to cold as an excuse. Need to get my butt in gear.
  21. Craig, I don't think of you as obsessed as the other two weirdos.:top:
  22. Slap some orange on something and you are guaranteed to sell at least two in this club.
  23. Awesome look forward to seeing it soon.
