sounds good man. too bad you didn't know about that hub sooner. in some states, like pa, the blinkers need to click off automatically to pass inspection.

tchurch- i used fatmat. 100 sq ft for $100. and its pretty good stuff

i used raammat. heres where you can get it. http://www.raamaudio.com/ im quite sure its a one person run business. hes great though. and everythings pretty cheap. i used 2 rolls and like 6 yards of ensolite. all came to about 250 or so. i had a TON though. so i just layed it everywhere. as you can see. i dont think this stuff is as good as dynamat. but its alot cheaper. so i just doubled or tripled up in the important places. the first time i started it it was weird because i couldnt hear the engine noise as much. also i never hear little pebbles flying up in the wheel wells, and my doors sound solid when i close them now.

yea that be nice. its just kind of a pain shifting threw turns and then forgeting about the blinker being on. plus my steering wheel blocks right where they are cuz i like it as low as it can go.

Wow man, i apologize for my assumptions. I also owned my first car when I was 15 and payed for everything myself as well. I guess I must be a little jealous that you have all those parts at such a young age. You must be very good at managing your money.

I had to pay for my own drivers ed, insurance, and every drop of gasoline. My dad is broke and Ive always bought my own ****.

So whenever i see a 15 year old with a 240, body kit, wheels, paint, and 4x4 ride height, I just assume he borrowed daddy's credit card because he wants to "drift."

Your car looks very clean and i'm excited to see more progress.Sorry for being a d!ck, keep up the good work
