There are a few things that need to be done, like solving an electrical brake light issue, pick up the front hub caps from the machine shop, and fix a few scratches. I would like to thank everyone on this forum for helping me out with my dumb questions over the last 6 years. It has been a great journey and I learned (and spent $$$) much more that I ever thought I would. Seriously, thanks so much. This is a great forum with some great people! Also, thanks all you NAPCO guys! NAPCO's RULE!!!!! Before After | | | | | Joined: Sep 2005 Posts: 1,028 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2005 Posts: 1,028 | jomichael
