Why a pic of your car? Well, so we can match the cars to the people!

that lip all the way across the front of the hood needs to go. I believe I bought 1/16" or 1/8" pin striping from autozone for a few dollars and ran it around the outside edge of the hood at the top, then took a cutoff wheel and air grinder and cut below the pinstriping so it was even all around. Then just take a metal file and smooth it out nicely. It's pretty simple to do.

Provided there are no hiccups in my planning, I'll be there. That means I have to have my clutch work flawlessly from now until then which definitely was an issue last year haha!

If you have cold Pepsi I'll take you up on that offer! (non drinker here lol)

Re: See you all there, post a pic of your car too!

Well both my forcast and Cretes NWS forcast have the words hail and severe in them for tomorrow evening, not something I want to risk driving 150mi home in given the weather we already have had this week so unless something changes drasticly tonight with the forcast I think I am out

I see no mention of hail on cretes or my forecast for tomorrow, just see thunderstorms with 60% chance starting at 4pm, looks like the whole morning/afternoon will be fine.

Ya my issue is I would be driving into it when I leave,the rain doesnt bother me that bad......the other stuff does and we have gotten tornados and golf ball size hail in the last couple days so I would rather be safe than sorry .
