Michaels and I believe the Plano arts and craft store carry some shelf paper in various colors.

Most notable was how good of a job they did on all the black exterior plastic, I've been using Mother's Back To Black but that doesn't even come close in comparison to what they were able to do; the center front bumper, inside of the wing, and the lower rear bumper are all pure glossy black now! Even all the bugs stuck in my intercooler are gone

I suck at and hate taking pictures, but here's a quick one I snapped with my phone in my parking garage at work this morning:
That looks pretty darn good! And to think, after seeing that parking job, I have to put up with comments about unpuckering my ***.

I have to go way down into the garage to get that spot, but I love it!

On another note: My verdict on EvolutionDynamics for tire mounting & balancing?

Kudos to Don and Tom of Trade Secret! Their team did an excellent job on the the full detail on my Evo. Even shampoo the seats and it looks great inside.

Check out those wheels, just like new.

Anyone know of a good performance driving school in the DFW area? A friend of mine who is about to move to NYC (for TOEFL certification) and after he gets his certification he wants to do a performance driving school (with certification of some sorts I guess) and I wouldn't mind doing it either with another friend of mine.

Arrow Alignment for you guys

I thought I'd share this seeing some of use hate to waste hundreds on alignments.
The lead Mechanic at NTB in Fort Worth has agreed to do alingments for for $30 or $40 if you require custom specs.

We have done slammed Hondas, Miatas, etc. Low cars are no problem.
This will be a 4 wheel, computer alignment.

I make no money out of this. This is about what he gets paid to do them, so why not cut the shop out and the 80% mark-up.

Mods, please let me know if this is not appropriate. I'm not making a single penny out of this.

PM me for now.
