dont you qualify for any type of student loans?? apply for some..... college is crazy expensive, you do have the rest of your life to pay off loans too... sooooooo... i lean towards keeping the 2g, but im biased because ive had two and i dont know your money situation.
same as ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^i have had two spyders and on both cars i have used ground controls... on the first spyder i used the blue tokicos (premiums) and on the second i have illuminas... needless to say the illuminas are better... but i would go ground control or teins all...
i actually have the blitz sides and rear end sitting in my basement right now... i was going to put them on, but then i looked in my empty bank acct and was like.."how about i just go back to stock so i dont get flamed on dsmtuners.com?"=Pand yes my fmic is crooked!! kinda sucks... but i...

Hi Michiganders, I was just wondering if anyone has a paint gun that would be willing to help me out and spray a front bumper for me near the Detroit area (Im from sterling heights)? I already bought the paint, thinner, and clear coat stuff at the paint store, and my paint contact fell through...
Ive had 3 new tops in my life and all of them were taken care of by insurance.. not sure what your plan is... its vandalism so all you have to pay is your deductible.. if you dont go through insurance it will be like 1 or 2 grand i think???? also, they dont care if you change the color of your...
Oh wow i didnt know ANY of this information! Thanks to everyone who replied....I think right now I think I can get access to a spraygun and a paint booth.. so from the posts, i think i will bring my paint code to a paint shop and have them mix my paint for me.... its stock white btw...
Hey guys, I was just wondering if anyone has painted their own front bumper ever?? Is it hard matching colors?? Right now I have a stock 2g all sanded and I HATE dealing with paint shops, I have had bad experiences with them. Any experiences and/or pictures anyone can share with me?? or maybe...
i know a guy who has a silver gst with a full blitz kit on it...i think he might have his side skirts and rear bumper still.... no front though... let me know if you want me to check up on that for you..... pm me
i think the kit looks really good.... i do agree with everyone by taking off all of the decals.....and this is just my opinion ... but i think your car would look real tight without the wing too....i absolutely love your rims though....... they look awesome
wow dsmhelix... you did an awesome job on your bumper!the crack on my bumper is only like 2 inches long at the most... so i guess ill just go get some fiberglass resin from the autoparts store and patch that thing up.......... thanks for the help.... !
I was just wondering how people have shipping body kits to other people without damaging the kit and at a reasonable cost. I have a brand new blitz rear bumper and side skirts that i might sell to this one dude. Should I just go to UPS? What kind of ballpark shipping price am i looking at? I...

no way do you have to be an expert on that stuff before attempting to be an auto engineer... i started college in order to learn about this stuff.... i know a alot of engineers who dont even know how an engine runs... but there are many different positions available to people with different...
the skiing/snowboarding is simply amazing anywhere you go in colorado... i went for the first time last year and i still think about how great it was.. thats the only thing i know about it.... i went to a place called Breckinridge btw.... probably one of the best vacations i have ever been on

I was just wondering if anyone else has a polyurethane blitz front end on a 2g? I guess from the hot ass weather last year it warped it, now i have a smiley face for a bottom lip. Its exposing the bottom of my fmic and makes me have about a 2 inch ground clearance in the front. is there any type...

Hi im new to the site and have been browsing the forums for a couple days. What i wanted to get some opinions on was a coilover set up for a 97 spyder. if i had the money i would prolly get some GC's with some tokico illuminas, but i dont.... waht i was wondering was if i went with the illuminas...
