Default New Crap!!!!!!!

So there I am stuck at work tonight, when my wife calls to enlighten me that the UPS guy left three freaking boxes at our door. If you recall my early story this week, my wife has a mouth on her...so her words werent so nice.....One box says LLoyds Mats , so that was a tell tale sign.....Another was from Fred Beans....and a third from Levine Automotive!!!!!!!! I was like SWEET!!!!!!!! All the crap I ordered two days ago, showed up like promised!!!!

So what was it you ask?????

Lloyds Rear Cargo Mat from WEST COAST CORVETTE
Skip Shift from WEST COAST CORVETTE
Front License plate surround (2) from FRED BEANS....
Spray Paint(Torch Red) (Primer)(Clear Coat) From LEVINE AUTOMOTIVE.

Prices were amazing.....and the additional Horsepower that is expected far exceeds my expectations!!!!

Oh great, so now I'll never hear the end of how your front plate surround is painted and mine is not.

I can't wait to see the end results!! I was actually thinking of having my calipers painted in the next month or two at vettech but if I can do the front plate surround myself, it might save me a few bucks!!!

BTW, the vette is fixed so I'll be ready to roll tomorrow for the topless cruise. Turned out I fried a ground wire on the track. They also replaced a speed sensor that they said was giving an innacurate reading. It was all covered under warranty.

My father in law got me a boot leg copy of Star Wars Episode III, I just finished watching it.

I saw it at the movie theatre last week but I couldn't help myself. I'm a closet star wars geek.

No loaner, didn't need it and yes I admit it. I'll also admit to owning the original trilogy DVD set and still owning some old star war figures from when I was little (insert joke here). I won't admit that I wear Jar Jar pjs to go to bed though.


Good night!!

I'll go one better, I also have the trilogy on DVD and the original laser disk issues. When "The Phantom Menace" was out it wasen't even close to being issued in DVD and the only laser disk copy I found was issued with Japenese subtitles which I gladely payed $60 on E-bay .

I would like to see that Mat and how it fits back there. Putting the skip shift is a 30 second job if you find the right height curb.

Barry - I put the C6 shifter in my car and I have to say I love it. Much crisper feel and the shifts are more accurate. Another thing to **** your wife off... (don't worry once mine finds the Cam I will be on the street next tot you)...

Congrats on the presents you bought your self. I too have a fair amount of UPS and fedEx deliveries. Karin never says a word! I guess as long as there is food on the table and a roof over our heads, its not in excess

But Barry, when are you going for zip instead of looks?

Right now 343HP to the wheels is nice!!!!!
