Uh, that's sitting on Tein S-Techs Mike. The car is a little cockeyed on the slanted driveway, so I don't think it's an accurate representation of the ride height. I need to get some better pics, but the 240 is put away for the winter. I was just seeing how well the photobucket pics posted up, which is why there is the word "test" in the title.

You mean you don't like my little die-cut Tein stickers? I didn't really think it was over the top, and I DO have Tein springs, so WTF? I'm also told that my wheels are played out, even though I think they look good, fit perfectly and are light yet strong.

CF hatch. It's a grey hatch that needs to be painted.

I don't know. Maybe it's the color scheme. Red, in my opinion, doesn't look good with stickers in general, especially white. It sticks out too much. And then there is the fact that Red and White are horrible horrible horrible colors and anything that represents those colors (read: Ohio State) is more retarded than a crack baby that was dropped on it's head from 3 floors up.

Why do people get worked up over Ohio State being so much better than Michigan. Michigan sucks. Go make out with Canada or something. We'll take Puerto Rico, you guys hang with Canada. The average sweetness of the U.S. would skyrocket.

And the car looks good man.

Hahaha, haven't I already LISTED why UofM is better?Oh yeah, here:
JimmyMethod wrote:All time UofM vs OSU record = Michigan: w57-l37-t6Oh, and us being ranked the #3 Best Public University....and we're ranked the #6 best engineering college among all colleges....and the fact that we have 5.5 times the endowment per UG capita....and the fact that there are only two flags on the moon, one being Old Glory, the other being the UofM flag....and the fact that we have one of the largest library systems in the world....and the fact that we have one of the largest budgets for research of all public universities....and then there's the simple fact that OSU isn't a tier one school and UofM is.Oh, and Ohio is a red state...and that speaks volumes about the people who live there: http://chrisevans3d.com/files/iq.htm
OSU has... uh... mmm... hell, the state of Ohio doesn't even have anything... Unless, of course, you count slow speed limits.

And yet you're still not smart enough to recognize the fact I build up OSU simply to piss you off.

I'm not into college rivalries. I don't really get them. I'm actually looking at OSU simply because of the fact that I'm guaranteed a free ride there. Though I will be looking at Michigan as well.

Hahaha, you say that. Spend a couple weeks at either place, and that will change. It's the greatest rivalry of all time. It WILL affect you.

Looks good repo. Don't mind the stickers at all. The wheels are nice, too.

You just need the hatch painted and it'll be perfect.

To understand them, you must experience them. I went to Lehigh, whose rivalry with nearby Lafayette is one of the greatest in college sports. The overall records in any sport are not as important as defeating your rival.

If I was an OSU alum and a UM fan presented me with all that data about UM, I might suggest:

UM was indeed named "the #3 public university"..... by UM's own studentsOr that the huge library looks bigger than it is because so few U&M students actually graduate.Or that most of their "engineering" grads spent two semesters learning to toot a train whistle in preparation for their post college jobs.

FYI I think either school would make a good choice.

Actually I didn't know if I would like the Tein stickers on there or not. They will not be replaced when I have the paint and body work done, FYI. With the way I picture it in my mind, it's going to look super smooth when it's done. I don't know if I'm keeping the pignose or putting a different front bumper on it. I think I'll do sideskirts either way.

And the Four Horsemen pwn ALL.

Two different cars, neither of which I own. I am a manager at a Cadillac dealer and those are both demos. I drive one for 6500 miles and get a different one. I don't have one right now, which is by choice. I have been cutting out unnecessary expenses and am just driving the Grand Cherokee until I get a few things paid for and business picks back up consistently. Plus, as you can see, I only have a two car garage and four cars for the two of us is a pain in the a**.

240 on the left and the Saab on the right. I don't have a pic of the Saab posted, but that's my wife's car. It's a 2000 9-3 SE convertible, white with a black top. Jeep stays outside.
