).
If the GHLs fail to sufficiently reduce my IQ through sonic-cranial compression, I might be looking at SLP with the new tips, which fill the entire cavity
rendering an exhaust plate pointless.

My names Eric and I'm a mod-aholic
Yesterday I was experiencing shakes and the beginning of cold sweats!
Just then, a white truck stopped at the end of the driveway. The person in the truck placed a white box at the front door from LAPD, inside was a Hotchkis swaybar kit! I instantly relaxed and my breathing eased. I know this will fix me for a couple weeks, but then what?? More shakes, sleepless nights!?! Will it never end???.........god I hope not!

My Corvette is stock 
Tool mods are next... I'm tired of driving my car on blocks so I'm getting a low pro jack and a power drill to make taking my wheels on/off easier and quicker.
Oh yeah I'm thinking about a DRM radiator/oil cooler combo. Crap, I still haven't gotten those '04 shocks I want, guess those will be next.

Hi, I'm Jack
I used to have a modaholic addiction until I was placed in rehab. It's been 2 months so far with 1 left to go. They sent me away to a dry, sand covered, hot as hell rehab center 7000 miles away from my 'Vette so I could quit "cold turkey". I had the shakes and the sweats for the first few weeks, but I'm better now. The men in the white lab coats only let me check this forum once in a while to help with the program.
Quick!! They're not looking now...somebody break me the hell outta here!!! 33 days left until I can get my next fix...I just need a little...really, just a taste...that's all.

Vicariously, let's face it, is sometimes enough, for the serious addict. Live the addiction through this pic. I'm doing both the Carravagio Fin and the CE stripes next month on my MY Vert.
I hope this helps take the edge off.
We're all in this together. Support is the key.

Hi.. My name is Tom and I am a Modoholic.. I think my compulsion is terminal and irreversible!
I am quickly approaching "Terminal Modification Syndrome", which is the point in which I will have more $$$ invested in my mods than the amount I paid new for my '02 Coupe!
In fact, my car is now in the treatment center (garage), where it has been for the last two weeks. I go visit it every day, and give the service tech two or three new requests. I took it in for 3.42s, Vigilante 2800 TC and HD shaft. Yesterday I told him to order me the Kooks LT Headers!
I really don't think I will ever bring it home!
Somebody hhhhhhhelp me ppppplease!

Mods are not I probelm for me... buying a HC package was the only logical thing to do when I busted off a exhaust manifold bolt installing headers...and they weren't my headers ... I was holding them for a friend... and the Fikse's were bought strictly for aesthic reasons...plus buying a few little things for the car helps stimulate our economy.. if we didn't lots of vendors would be out of work... :flag
Alright... I'm a MODAHOLIC... but I like it!

My name is Greg and I'm a mod-aholic. I'm currently in the 10 step recovery program. I don't know why but the more beers I drink while on line the more mods I order.

After consideration, I really don't think I have a problem.
I'm only consuming about a quart of Mobil 1 every week now. I know it's supposed to go in the car but I'm sure I have it under control by mixing it with orange juice. At least I stopped mainlining it.
And no one would know about this if it weren't for the fact that over 60% of my shirts have a Covette logo on them.
Just because the phone numbers for WCC, MA and Eckler's are 1,2,and 3 on my speed dial really doesn't mean anything. And besides, chasing UPS trucks is healthy.
