[Benji]

Hey welcome to the boards. I'm from the DC area too. You may have met my girl's cousin at Hyper-Fest, Pj and his company VIP Garage. I couldn't make it personally to the event, but I had him enter it in the show. We need to meet in person. I've got some pics from Pj of your box from the event. Here's 1 of like a dozen shots of my car and yours.

[Madddsciontist]

Thats IS a chip! Happened on the way to that show in Englishtown.... Somewhere allong the 3 and a half hour drive i heard Thwack! the NJ turnpike bit me :tickedoff: My heart about sank as i JUST got this thing done the previous weekend. I was actually somewhat relived when i saw how small it was. Ive already begun repair. >Mikey

[Pagong]

Man thats too bad....

By the way I love that color :smitten:

When will we see the DIY on how you did your flares?

[Madddsciontist]

Ill write one up tonight kinda step by step.* Thanks All for the compliments!* Nothing better than the feeling when people who know appreaciate your work!* The color is a Porsche color, "velvet red", kinda fixed up with a heavy flake and a gold pearl in the clear.* Ill go start on the write up...* >Mikey
