Good point. My mechanic trailered my car to Seb after my sc install (hour and a half away when there is no traffic). Seb has a great flat bed service they use. I had him drop my car off to me when Seb finished my tune. Didn't feel like sitting in 3 hours of traffic on a Friday afternoon. I love driving my car but I hate LA traffic.

Due to an illness a few on here know about, my car has been sitting untouched since October, with a month at the dealership fighting over a CSC issue and a quick snow storm and being too weak to even drive it the car sat since then.

Anyhow, the hood from AMS is about 3 years old. Now that I'm feeling better but not out the woods yet, giving the car the attention it deserves.

Spent the past 2 nights working it to see if I could get it back. Here is what I started with.


Using 1000 grit paper, then 2500 and a few compounds this is what I finished with. Still have the one side to do yet.


Just to show what I have left to do.

Old? Much better, my body is responding well to the treatments with no side effects. Was supposed to have a PET scan done this morning but the camera broke so rescheduled for next Friday. Will know just how well I'm doing after that.

Thought I had a place lined where I could install the exhaust but that fell through so keeping my eyes open to find something. It took 3 months but finally got the Speed Force headers, just need to get them coated before putting them on.

How are things in your neck of the woods?

Glad to see you moving about.

Things are going well. Getting ready for ZDayZ next week. Week after we come home from that. We are heading out west. Denver, then to Lake Powell Ut. Rented a 75ft house boat for the week. Family get together with all the boys and their families. From there to Bloomfield MN for a couple of days. Come home from that. Then to Rausch Creek with the Power Wagon for a meet. Then in July. We are driving the Z out to Wy. for a wedding. Wife is hoping to spend some time at the beach this summer. And I'm hoping to get a chance to do some trackdays.

If you feel like making the trip to the Philly area, I'd willingly give you a hand with the exhaust install! Let me know.
