Pretty neat EJ. Looks like your journey turned out to be successful.

Hudson_Neon · Post by **Hudson_Neon** » Wed Apr 02, 2008 11:41 pm

yes, it was pretty much the best 2.5 hours i spent on driving for just a part

Looks good yo! Nice find. Though any 2.5 hour drive normally wouldn't be a problem, but in a minivan I'd be going nuts.... or a prius...

actually that van is pimp... my mom has the whole shabang done to it. 4.0L... she packs a whollup

The new vans have a lot of nifty stuff in them. Gadgets galore!

hansken_yo · Post by **hansken_yo** » Thu Apr 03, 2008 2:21 pm

The minivans that I've been in handle like shit and brake even worse.... that is where I'm coming from, but hey! if you had fun then that is awesome.

Really does look good.

Nice EJ! Fuck the hood gap...and fuck yo couch!

slaw · Post by **slaw** » Thu Apr 03, 2008 5:33 pm

holy shit they make them with a 4.0 now
my moms 94 had a 3.8 and it was nasty
the 3.1 does the minivan no justice

actually, i did some "adjustments" tonight. i elongated the hole in the middle of the bumper cover, and trimmed the plastic above the striker release. now she's damn near flush and the gap doesn't look so bad.

congrats EJ

If you got rid of the gap, then -------->

By the way, I have to drive 2.5 hours (one way) if I want to get somewhere with a population more than 20,000 people. I'm used to it.
