In all seriousness I need to figure out what's clunking/popping underneath guys. Where would you take your z to get looked at. Or if someone wants to let me use their garage to get under there.... Hint hint.....

So the storm coming in tonight looks rough. I'm not sure C&C is going to be as thrilling as we'd like it to be.

The popping and clunking is probably a loose bolt and nut on your exhaust, suspension, or both. I've had that happen to me before. I'd offer to help you out and look for it. You have tools? Or do you need a lift and jack stands and stuff?

BTW, Ryan and I did a little experiment on the V2 tonight. I'd like to see it during the day. There's a huge color difference, but I expected that. I'm hoping that it protects the lip and stays on for a while.

What the hell was his reasoning for letting you go John? Still gotta pay you what he owes, nail him for some unemployment $$$ while your at it.

Dave I think it will look a little better in the day, its funny how the pearl doesn't show as much until you add a true white next to it.

I clunks hard when i turn slowly or step on my brakes as i come to a stop. it's pretty loud. feels like something is getting hammered ha

1 dead at MOA after bizarre accident causes a ramp to collapse. WTF...

I slept in today, but I was still thinking it's dry enough to go to C&C. Doesn't look bad on the map. I think a lot of people probably didn't go.

Wow, it got dark out quickly. Took the boys to the donut shop, and then it started to sprinkle. I don't think my plastidipped lip is completely cured yet, so I'm glad I haven't taken it out yet.

Woke up at 7:30 looked out bedroom window and proceeded to go back to sleep which took all of 5 seconds.

Sure is nice out right now though.
