Yea first place was VIP_Tc and 3rd was the ricer wing.

I completely agree with you that 1up had some of the nicest cars but I guess theres nothing you can do about the shady judging.

I actually thought your car would place either 2nd or best tc, and I already mentioned that I thought Julian had one of the nicer Tc's there that day

jorge, what he's saying (i think) is having it ceramic coating it was a little over the top. you couldn't used some hih temp engine paint to paint it. less cheddar too.

if he has money for it he can coat it w/e he wants... it looks satin black to me.. which is why i asked.. satin black is 5 bucks and coatings usually run in the 50+ range...

will do Joanne, when the hids started going bad they did not want to warrantee them, luckily for speedshop they took real good care of me in fixing it, thats where i heard all the horror stories from..and get this they tried once to get me to have my rotors cadmium plated, they said it would prevent any rust from ever forming..it was going to cost $380 to do it..i said no thank you
