I like the idea of bronze! I dunno if the store(s) will have it. When I briefly saw a kit at the store, there was only like 2 color options. Thanks!

I've used that engine enamel for the interior parts I painted (for the clear coat). It's held up too lol. We'll see what's offered at the stores. Thanks to everyone for the tips thus far! Any ideas on colors? Like I said, I don't wanna do black. Maybe silver? Red? I think both will look just fine on...

You know what I always wanted to know, how do you get those "custom" titles under the board names in other forums? I'm pretty sure they don't have the same option we do (in the profile section).

brake calipers!

Has anyone used these brake caliper paint kits that are available at the usual stores? They normally come with stuff to clean and paint. If so, are they reliable? How's the quality? If not, what'd you use to paint them? And how? Like it's been previously mentioned, I'm gonna replace the rotors and p...

I've been very partial to Intel and avoided AMD--if that's warranted or not is beyond me but I've had no complaints about Intel. For the movie buffs: The old Rat Pack or the New Rat Pack (in the making at least: Will Ferrell, Vince Vaughn, Luke & Owen Wilson, and even Steve Carell, and Ben Stiller)

I don't think they look bad--and I'm not just saying that because I have one. I think it matches the body--something that many honduhs are guilty of. I do agree that it looks better on a kitted car, especially that Xenon kit.

Yeah, they are cheap. Even with the shipping, the modern package is relatively cheap. After I finish these brakes (hopefully this week), I'll look into the coil pack, along with the new plugs and wires.

Look for the screws: in the door lock area, the door handle (that you pull to close), and somewhere near the corner. I'm basing this on the screw locations on the front doors. After that, use your fingers or a flat head or something really thin that can squeeze in between the plastic trim panel and ...
