I brought the line of the black on the trunk like that because I wanted it to follow the curve of the tails and the top of the trunk...I didn't want it straight across like the vinyl ones are. To me it looks half-assed and kinda tacky. I think it looks just fine around the 3rd brake light, but I know where you're coming from

The local sport compact crew is putting together a dyno day for the members at Archer Racing on May 23rd with their mustang dyno and the fee is $50/hour, which is estimated 3-5 runs...which is fuggin cheap! So I signed up and next week I'm going to meet up with Brian to give him the deposit. I'm not looking to see any great numbers since the only mods to the engine I have done is an Iceman CAI, custom exhaust, Crane Firewire 8.5mm plug wires, and NGK iridium plugs...AND it's NGC, so that helps a great deal

I do have an eBay UDP, but I haven't got the proper belts to installed it yet and probably won't before the dyno day, but oh well. It's just a fun time with good food and good company. There will be pictures though...oh yes, there will be pictures...

I got my SRT gas, brake, and clutch pedals/covers installed today...kindof a bitch to get the cut-off wheel in there and zip off a 1/4" chunk off the pedals. They look great though! I was going to clean my interior today and take some pics, but it's nasty out right now, so I have to wait for a nice day. I also put down the $50 to save my spot for the dyno runs on the 23rd. I'm excited to see some of the other cars put their numbers down...lots of forced induction on the dyno that day. As a matter of fact, I might be the only N/A car there, but I don't care.

Speaking of pictures... take one of the passenger front caliper all mounted up for me plz?

I got a flat tire today (fuckin nail in the road and no road hazard), so yeah...

sidepipe87 · Post by **sidepipe87** » Thu May 21, 2009 11:11 pm

sucks about the flat tire. It wasn't in the tread so you could plug it? The 15s lookin good. trade me stock wheels! lol

supertrick_05 · Post by **supertrick_05** » Thu May 21, 2009 11:14 pm

No, the nail was in the tread, so that could have been patched, but due to driving on the tire, unaware it was flat, I tore a hole in the sidewall...so I had to order a new tire.

sidepipe87 · Post by **sidepipe87** » Thu May 21, 2009 11:20 pm

ahhh ok. that sucks. I always have this irrational fear that I have a flat tire... I don't know why. I've never even gotten one before haha

supertrick_05 · Post by **supertrick_05** » Fri May 22, 2009 6:57 am

I was thinking of scuffing them up and painting them either flat black or a gunmetal color with a silver lip...not sure yet though.

TheRandom1 · Post by **TheRandom1** » Fri May 22, 2009 8:10 am

Just leave them, they won't be on that long...

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Fri May 22, 2009 8:39 am

Why did you change all four rims for one flat tire??? I are lost. Was the flat in the rear? I've experienced a flat in my car awhile back, but a stronger sidewall saved my ass. But I knew it was flat, the car doesn't track properly. Even a 2psi difference is noticeable unless it's in the rear.

Naiya looks pissed off to have stockers on.

Probably for looks, I'd imagine. 3 nice wheels with a stocker looks a LOT more ghetto than 4 stockers.

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Fri May 22, 2009 8:44 am

Maybe the tire will take forever to come in? I know mine are same day or next day if the local one doesn't have it. If it's going to take a week or so that might make sense then. BTW any damage on the lip from running with a flat?

Those aren't snowflakes. They actually don't look too bad though.

i call them the stock wheels lol
who cares what they are called, i think they look alot better on your car than the other wheels you have. IMHO

Post by **Canada** » Fri May 22, 2009 1:00 pm

Brodie, go ahead and toss the rota's on man. They will look much better than those in the mean time!

sidepipe87 · Post by **sidepipe87** » Fri May 22, 2009 1:14 pm

supertrick_05 · Post by **supertrick_05** » Fri May 22, 2009 2:30 pm

You know Chris, I actually wondered what those Rotas would look like...I may have to try them on!
The Konigs will be back on the car next Saturday.
