+1 to that, replacing all the lines, etc isn't to hard of a job. I'll pitch in as well if DIY route is what you want.

Cool guys, thanks. I'll let you know when I get the parts in. And no problem about the headlight cover, I was thinking about getting something like that. I'm not doing too much to the exterior, probably just a lip kit, and R1 wing, and a new coat of montego blue by christmas should do it.

Do you have tan interior on that FD? I think I saw a MB FD at the theator not to long ago with tan interior, looked all stock on the exterior.

Yeah, the stock looking blue with tan interior would be my new baby. The only work done to it thus far is the Bonez downpipe & high-flow cat, racing beat dual-tip and a trust airinx intake.

Ok, i'll speak up again...here are the plans for my life:

I'll be moving to Swansboro Sept 1st/2nd and teaching Taekwondo in Jacksonville. I will be looking for a day time job as well, so if anyone knows any place hiring, please let me know. My background is in computer programming (java), but I am not limiting myself to just doing that. I also have experience working with glass and a little construction (framing). PMs would be great

I will keep looking for the next J-ville meet after I show up and should be able to attend. Of course, I'm not opposed to just meeting up and hanging out as well. And anyone who wants to come watch or help when I'm working on my red FD, ur more than welcome to do so. again, PM me and i'll pass along my cell #.

I look forward to meeting everyone...
