My name is Earl, and I have a Stainless Steel bolt fetish =)

i think plain gloss black looks better in the light than cosmos. to me cosmos always just looks like you have black paint covered with a layer of dust/dirt.

[Earl]

^I like that look though. Plus Cosmos is easier to maintain than Schwarz II.

[M20_fever]

Match whatever your jambs/bay/deck lid undersides are. Nothing screams cheap ass ricer more than opening the door and seeing a different color.

[Earl]

That's why cosmos would work better. It is pretty much just Schwarz II with metal flake and I believe a little pearl. They all revolve around black=) If I got Diamond Schwarz I would get paint mixed after the fact and spray the Jams myself. I like Diamond Schwarz more than Cosmos myself, but I don't believe it would blend into the jams well and thats the tradeoff. Bay color really doesn't matter to me because I won't have it open for anyone to see unless there is a different motor ever. lol

Im thinking of selling/trading the Ti for a unicycle. I'm sick of getting 36 miles per gallon and unicycles are pretty good on gas I hear. We will see what's up in the coming weeks.

[Ryan...]

My gf might be getting a white, 5sp TI

[Earl]

Sweet deal. Is it an active?

[Ryan...]

Active? Active member here? I dont know, not that I've seen so far.

[Earl]

As in the m tech model

Lol

Mileage? Price?

[Ryan...]

Its not a legit Mtech, just an M bumper.

195k, guy is asking $3600 obo

[Earl]

I hope it isn't a 95 of he is asking that price. And she better be rust free. Lol the 95's for some reason are worth significantly less. Ti's aren't worth anywhere near as much as their sisters. And does it have fat trim and m style rear bumper? That'd be a sport model then.

Edit: FYI, mine had 148,000 miles and was rust free and I paid $2200

[Earl]

Anyone flock before? I'm about to flock out with my **** out!

[Earl]

Finally finished polishing

They look okay. Coat 1 of sharkhide is curing now and coat 2 will be in two days:P

[Ryan...]

Looking good!!

[Earl]

They look alright:) lol

[GunMetalGrey]

That is shiny as.... I don't even know.

[Earl]

Lol

[Earl]

and now there is $400+ in parts on its way, a new idea for coloring the car, and there are only two wheels being a pain to assemble=D

[Earl]

Wheels and tires are finally on=) I need to roll and pull the rears more. It settled about an inch on the ride home last night.

Rubs on bumps due to being less than 1/8" between the fender and tire. lol I'll try to get a picture later after I roll and wash

the beast. BTW, the rust I though I had a problem with on the rear just turned out to be paint bubbling due to moisture

getting under. So it is SOLID!!! Also have 8 more cans of Le' Plasti Dip on the way, bringing that to 14 to do the whole car.

Lets hope it comes before next thursday!!! Getting there.

[wasnt m3]

About time...haha. Post the pics with the wheels on.
