I've been really busy (I work full-time and go to school full-time). The Varis lip is sitting in my garage along with a Nismo LSD, diff cooler, UTEC w/ tuner wb, TPs, clutch, flywheel, Profec E0-1 (from my last car), and a camber kit. I like to do all my work myself but I just really don't have time right now. The Varis lip, at least, will probably be on there by the end of the month, though.
My mind has been filled with thoughts of a built motor twin turbo. I was kind of thinking about waiting and doing a huge transformation all at once (or selling the car and buying a lotus). Either way, I'm just trying to catch a ton of overtime and save money.

but hey man i am sorry for ya. some people are jus not proffessional

I think this wins for most unconventional fix. I think there are some of these markers and erasers sitting around my office. I think I need to try this just to see if it works. Weird.

That sucks man. I had someone shoot sparkplugs out of a wristrocket at my last car. They dented a pillar and smashed the back window (it happened on my birthday, too).

Hehe. Thanks man. This is what many reliable sources are telling me is the best course of action. I can't get over to a shop to pick this stuff up for a couple days, though.

I grabbed an EXPO dry erase marker and eraser from work, so I'll test that out too.
