I was bringing my car back from Ida's place yesterday and got caught caught in traffic on the Cross Bronx Expressway, possibly the worst road in NY. Words cannot describe the condition of this road that connects the George Washington Bridge and the Throg's Neck Bridge that can never be repaired because of the constant flow of traffic. When you finally got moving at a decent speed (25 MPH), everyone was in a rush to get going after sitting so long and were nose to tail. This is when I saw a hubcap crossing lanes and bouncing off the side of my Cat and continuing on just missing my Jeep with my girlfriend following behind. Unfortunatly, I got hit with the inside of the cap and it sliced into the rocker panel, door and rear fender guard. On a positive note, I'll be able to get some stuff painted yellow during the repair process. BTW, the turbo system is great~more to come on that! ------------------ |

On the good side, I'm getting my bumpers and the rad cover done in yellow. The tubes from the turbos are yellow, so it might look good. Anyone remember where the pic of the yellow rad cover was? I'm not sure if I'll like it or not. I have 500 deduct and the guy said he'll paint the bumpers and cover for an additional 400. Good???? JP, The turbo's are sweet. I've put about 300 miles on the system and no regrets. There's some additional foot well heat that I can take care of with some heat mat. Still waiting for another management system that will bring it all together. I'll post some times soon. ------------------ |
