Trevor - PLEASE read guidelines before just posting random things in random places. Its totally great that you want to nominate Mike for "G of the month"...but there's 2 problems w/ your post...

1. Its the 2nd to last day of the voting. Nominations take place the 1st-15th of the month and voting is the 15th-30th.

and #2....ONLY premier members are eligible to be nomated for "G of the Month" voting. There for Mike is not eligible to be nominated at this time.

cheers brutha!!!!

I have done all mods my self on all my vehicles. I haven't gotten into painting body panels, but I have done done paint work before on some less important places.

I'm usually pretty good with bolt-on stuff and don't mind taking apart stuff on my car as you can in recent pics I've posted in the mod thread. I'm hesitant on suspension work only because I don't have the right tool. With that said, when it comes to adjusting my coils, I'll work on that myself later in the spring. I don't mess with anything electrical though. I've gotten pretty good with plasti dip lol I did install my last exhaust so I may give the new one a try as well once I get it.

Those were good days! That was my second exhaust on the stang too, when I went illegal with the off road x pipe. No cats or resinators ftw!

Oh, and just a note: I am pretty sure I got a part time job at Advance Auto Parts. This means everything should be a go for the big trip. Save up some funds and pay of debt faster. Pretty excited.

I'm with ya on this. The lip is wack...looks like a knock off of the Top Secret kit with fogs. Basically an idea off of G-Lover (brian)'s car w/ the molded TS-P and fogs...which he sold
I think at this point we won't see much innovation when it come to lip designs.

Yeah, just general stuff around the store and delivering parts too probably.

Andrew, it has to better than working at Target or something similar, which I also applied for. I just need the extra income.

Delivering the parts wouldn't be too bad. Or maybe it's just the people in Fargo that make the job suck. I know about the income, part time manager at autozone is my income... It is just a completely different job than what I thought it was going to be.

That savage store doesn't seem like too bad of a place the few times I have been in there!
