With those number and the make/model I would get in contact with CSI:NY and have them run a train!!!

Good luck with the build buddy. Car looked great before.

But in Ny if your not in any immediate danger your **** out of luck. I remember someone was trying to steal my car years ago and I called the cops grabbed a certain something to defend myself with and ran out of my house. I kid you not before my shoes were on I saw flashing lights outside. But when I got into the accident I waited for over an hour for cops to arrive.

Update: Just dropped off all my parts at the body shop. Couldnt get the fenders so the shop said they can fix the ones on the car but obviously its more money for labor ....ordered a new barrel for my rear wheel from ravspec the other week. Hopefully it should be in by the end of May. Progress pics to come in the next couple weeks I guess.

I know its been a long time but thought I'd update the thread. Most of my big items have came in and work can finally be started on the car. I also decided to get rid of the meister wheels and pick up some more aggressive vsxx's
And while I was waiting on my front bumper, I found a pretty cool shift **** for the automatic transmissions lol

I know there's been a huge delay...the car sat in one shop for 3 months with no work being done. I finally showed up with a tow truck and just took it to another shop...anyways here are a few pics of whats going on. I bought new wheels that are wider than the current fenders I have and thats with a stretched tire on there. So the sensible thing to do would have been to sell them and get wheels that fit. However, I decided to just make the car fit the wheels lol. Here's some pics of the rear wheels with the stretched tire fitment.

pics of the front fender in the beginning phases of being widened about an inch to an inch and a quarter...It looks like frankenstein right now but it should look good when everythings completed. The body guy is just waiting on me to return my headlights before he moves on to the front end now. I must say this shop is moving very fast and the service is great.

I want to go with another blue but I'll see how my funds go. The plan is for a custom blue thats deep and still noticeably different from the DB. I'll see how that goes though
