Okay, So who do you want to make fun of now? lol

Sounds good - the first couple of months are always hard. I watched my brother in law do it all as well with all the new offices he opened up so I know how things must be for you in a sense.

Hmm besides work on the engine. Most likely going to source the AMG kit or go with the Wald and install/respray the whole car. That's the only thing left really...

What do you have planned though?

Not in any particular order:
-Install the Vogtlands that I have collecting dust
-Bilstein Sport
-17" wheels, probably the Enkei GF1s that I posted earlier
-Re-do the tint on the windows
-new exhaust, Remus maybe, I haven't thought too much about it
-color match my side cladding
-euro lights/clear corners/red+clear tails
-AMG front bumper, maybe Wald, maybe something else, I don't know yet, but I kinda like the front bumper only look (a la Zorro)
-new stereo with hands free for my cell phone
-chrome rings for the gagues
-new shift knob
-all new suspension bushings/ball joints/etc.

Lots of other stuff I'm sure, but that's all I can think of right now.

Hey Chris, do you know if there's a way to put pics in a sig without it being online somewhere? All of my pics are on my hard drive and it will only ask for a URL.
