Santa Monica Bl near city hall? That station has been astronomical since it opened. In the late 70's when I was in High School there was USA station on Santa Monica and Moreno that was in the .90s and that station was almost 2.00.

Edit, my mistake, it is a Union I am thinking of.

It was on Santa Monica BLVD, I remember that because I got lost coming home from the gym (still cant navigate myself threw this city) and got lost, I then saw SM blvd which is a way to get back to my house so I took it. I then almost threw up when I saw the gas price in BH lol.

Had to take the car back for alignment. Center was off. First time they got grease on the headliner & lost one of the N2 valve stem covers. Today they curbed my carbon fiber lip.


GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Kinetix Front UCA's
Kinetix Rear Camber Arms
Top Speed F/R solid sway bars
Tanabe GF210's.

Still need to pick up some aftermarket end links, compression arm bushings (they'll inevitably go out) and an alignment.

And I'm taking my hid's out tomorrow and putting the halogen bulbs back in. I've been running the same 6000k hids for 2 years now and frankly the hot spots and lack of proper light output is getting on my nerves.
