Are they gonna give you a VIII or IX wing? I don't know how my '03 wing looks good still. Guess the washing has paid off. Make sure they give you the VIII wing.

Glad to hear Mitsu is going to replace that wing.
Other hand, wash your car and wax the wing when you get a new wing. It's evo show and shine afterall. Dirty car with defected(?) wing doesn't belong. lol.

My cousin went there, he and his wife are pilots for UPS, pulling in about $300Gs a year between them and work a few days a week. Sounds nice

On topic, my wing should be coming in this week or next from Mitsu. Not sure if it's an 8 or 9 wing, but either one beats my faded clearcoat. Glad I got it approved for warranty work. Walpole Mitsu approved it no questions asked on the spot. Props to them thus far.

Yeah if your a pilot the jobs to have are with DHL, Fedex and UPS. Cause they will most likely never go out of buisness which in turn means your pention shouldn't ever just disappear! lol

So I don't know if most of you read that far down, but the wing is being replaced by Mitsu at no charge. Due to my negligence and full flight schedule, I hadn't any time to head on over and see what could be done. I'll have this summer off, however, so I'll absolutely have more time to take better care of the car.

But, 57000 miles, nearly a dozen drives between Daytona Beach FL and NJ, stock clutch, and it's still purrin like a cat. Couldn't be happier to have this car get me from A to B.

Yeah, I hope to fly with Fedex after a few years in the regionals to build my flight hours. We'll see, though...

I do custom trimmed clearbra on it to prevent this from happening....check with a local 3M installer and they should be able to do this fairly cheaply!
