Re: What did you do to your boss today?





Looking back on this last photo 40 years from now with the Challenger in the background, I'll be telling my kids, "Yep, those were the days, and those cars were all that was on the roads..." ::)
 
Re: What did you do to your boss today?

looks great!

I've never gotten tints for a car before, but I kind of want to get the boss windows tinted.
Do they remove the interior door panel to apply the side windows tints?

Yes. Check YELP.com first to find a good shop and you'll be fine. I paid about 250 for my side and back windows, five in all.

every car I have owned I had the windows tinted. They don't always remove the door cards (I watch a lot of wheeler dealers lol) the didn't on the last five cars I have owned including my boss.
 
Re: What did you do to your boss today?

made some final adjustments to the exhaust pipes. Fixed the leak, evened out the tail pipes, found the source of the OTA pipe rattles and mounted on the Kooks afterburners! Here is an idle clip with 5/8" restrictor plates

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

It's what I didn't do. Ordered the SVE Drifts from LMR Friday. In their infinite wisdom UPS delivered three wheels today. Driver said the other was probably put on a different 18 wheeler and hopefully it will arrive tomorrow. :'(

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

I wasn't 100% happy with how the holes in my RSD came out after my roll car install so I made the plates using 1/16" thick ABS and some automotive carpet from AutoZone. The colors match much better than the iPhone camera represents.

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

I did a final inspection and an oil change before friday's track event. Going to be the first time tracking the boss, little bit nervous lol.

Also installed 18x10, +42, Forgestar F14's with 285/35 RS-3's all around. The rear looks funny and weird because of the shorter tires.

This is Max. The picture is about a month old, I need to take some new ones. He will be 11 months this Friday. He's my first GSD - I've always had Rotties.
