Anyone ever seen someone runing a black/orange color scheme in the Mid-A? Thinking about some possible new ideas...

Yeah, but I was watching a downloaded ep of TG where James May is driving one of the new Veyrons and it's black/orange and looks sweet. But I guess when you pay over 2M for a car it's going to be sweet no matter what.

So I watched Inception last night. So what did the spinning of the totem in the end really means? Dude's still in limbo or the reality is actually a dream? I'm a bit slow.

God damnt! Ethan!!!!! Now you got me thinking again about the movie!! And i just got over it. To answer the question it was more of a cliff hanger so you keep thinking if it was reality or a dream.

This was the result of the seized wheels spacer nuts and spacer...

they took 8 1/2 hours of cutting them off and replacing the studs..

and the final product.

Its almost cheaper to chop the whole assembly off than to grind down 1 nut. 8.5 hrs? Holy cow. #1 reason why I don't put spacers on my car.

well it was 8 1/2 hours to cut into the spacer, into each nut to split them and then cut off the studs to pull the spacer off... then replace each stud...

and yes.. i learned my lesson.. no more spacers...

and if i do, its gonna be the ARP longer studs with the slip on spacers and open ended lug nuts.
