I stopped and saw Dave one morning just after 6am, since I was picking stuff up in front of his shop, and almost didn't get away.

Sweet!! Jim & I are thinking of getting matching M7 CF challenge wings to represent Central CA MINI-speed. I'll get the name & information of a paint guy/place here in the next 24 hours & then I'll be ready - I'm thinking of having you take apart my front bumper & having the brake ducts molded in while we're at it.

Joe, Finish one project and then procede to design, plan, construct the next idea, and then move on to the new one.

Right, we're on the same page. The biggie with something like paint & body work is if you're gonna do it - make sure it's all done at the same time. If I'm having the other four parts sanded, molded, etc. it only makes sense to take care of the last part too. Besides, JIMINNImachine's picking up my Challenge wing as my birthday present & I'm totally cool with that.

Nuh uh. You said when I turned 30, you'd get me a M7 CF Challenge wing to match the one you're getting. I'm turning 30 in a couple of weeks, so I'm taking you up on your kind offer.

Hello All,
I wanted to ask if anyone else needed/wanted any decals. I will be placing the order for the Actual Size, and MidCal decals next week. I have gotten a few special requests and wanted to see if there are any others. This guy has done all of our decals in the past and his prices are not bad. If anyone has seen the Eeyore that is on the back of my car. I drew that and he made it into the decal. That cost about $8 and it is double color. So if anyone wants anything, even if it is special let me know (PM, Email or Call me). I am going to meet with him next week, I think Wednesday 7/8. I am also going to be getting a price for Stripes (Pet you know the ones I am talking about). So I will let you know how much it runs. Thank you all and I hope everyone has a great 4th of July weekend.

No, no- Pete should do black ghost stripes on Gerbil. Now that'd be stealth.

He's going to completely ghost it so Gerbil will be invisible at night.

Or, he could do a custom vinyl job which "highlights" at night. This car's been around for awhile & is for sale. Dr.Steve, I can totally see you driving around in this car.



Oh, today's D-Day for JIMINNImachine's car right? That's ****super**** exciting! It only took +3 years for today to be come a reality. Luv ya man.

Did I miss a day? D-Day for JIMINNI is Friday, I believe. And I wouldn't be caught dead in that MINI.

I think that car was the result of WAY to much all show and no go mentality. Hey Transformers at the Edwards 3pm showing tonight will put us at Cassa with car cover in the boot at 5:40 on Friday... Unlike others that did not share the plan to go to the movies no names mentioned , thought I would throw the idea out.

Ok I need advice and with the dreaded R56 Scoop melt starting and a wait for it to finish so I can get the dealer to replace it I started looking at options. and came across the M7 AGS-R Cold Air Intake + Turbo Heatshield
vs just the heatshield from M7. It looks like around $500 difference in price is it worth it?
