TeamScionEyed Miami, All Scions welcome!
You know, I thought this was an official video shoot. When I get there I see a girl the age of my lil sister, prancing around a hialeah parking lot.
Its cool though, to each his own.
Nice seeing you guys!!!! Just been busy with work.

Nice seeing you guys!!!! Just been busy with work.
So..
you all know I am a mechanic for Acura, right? Well, I don't get paid by the hour, I get paid by the job.. I also have a new baby on the way next month.. this makes #4.. It turns out after we crunched some numbers today, that for the last 3 months (due to the lack of work via the economy.. Noone is buying/fixing jack at the dealer right now.. or any time recently) that I have basically been working for free.. what I mean by that is, the cost of daycare for 3 kids minus my paychecks have equalled zero for the past three months now.. This month it has actually cost me $300 to go to work!!
AND work is still getting slower, with a new baby due in 4-6 weeks.. and more daycare cost. It turns out if work would go back to what it used to be (which I know will not be for a long time), I will only be clearing a few hundred, if it stays like this, it will cost me over a grand a month to work!
My girl is on salary, and her salary will cover all of our expenses (taking modding my car out of the budget).. she is also getting her masters which will bump it up more.. she also agrees that I handle the kids better, so we have decided I am going to quit my job and watch the kids at home.. this will actually make us money. I am also in school getting a degree, but I am 3 years away.. in the mean time I will be Mr. Mom..
Now, for the reason I am posting this here.. I will basically have a garage with every tool neccessary to do anything to a car.. I will be buying an air compressor shortly.. the only way I can continue to mod the box and do stuff, is to make extra money on the side.. so I know rey has a couple things and etc.,. It will be a month (or less) before I can go at it hard, but if you all know people needing anything done to their car that they dont want to do.. please hit me up... I am not swapping engines, but will do most anything else including modding and accessorys, maintenance, Check engine lights, whatever..
Until I quit I cant make promises as to doing large projects, but for instance I have 3 LED installs lined up for this weekend
I also know I am way far south of most of you, and traveling your way will not always be possible.. so the closer the better
I will work on anything asian or american.. I am an Acura tech, I have been a Hyundai tech, I spent 9 years on a fleet of 'nothing but 92-97 caprices and 96-04 crown vics, I have owned and modded just about every kind of car/truck.. you know I have done everything to my box myself, and I a have also built up and show ready'ed a 77 vette and a 75 stingray, so whatever it is...hit me up!!
Thanks E

I hate my life, I got family in town for that weekend and I won't be able to make it out to Moroso.
Hmm the thread has been dead lately. Everyone busy working on their cars huh.
BTW if anyone wants the OEM Foglight kit...or knows someone who wants it LMK, im looking for $250 for it, and if you sell it you get $50 out of the sale :D
I just need to get rid of those things, they're in a pretty box on top of my bed
