Thankfully, it was just my Z and the Civic I hit. This was at 5:30 AM.

Collect your insurance and build your baby up this time like you wish you would have last time.

It's just stuff after all.
Thank you! They still haven't completed the assessment yet but it's expected to be completed this afternoon. As of now I'm not expecting it to be totaled but that is just an estimate based on the guy's tone over the phone lol no reasonable scientific basis. Don't be mad at me, PSYCH majors..haha

Anyone know of a reputable place to install a clear bra on a 2013 Nismo in the Houston area? I live about 2 hours away, but no one in my area really has the expertise to apply it.

Thanks in advance...

I would ask Greg at Underground Graphics, he probably does them.

Can anyone recommend a gunsmith in the Spring, The Woodlands or, Tomball area. I have several parts coming for my Benelli M4 and I don't have the tools to install them. Thanks!

Sorry to hear about your accident, but don't worry you're not alone. I wrecked my G35 Coupe there too because of debris on the road and it was raining. Bounced off the Beltway 8 barrier at 50mph. Frame damage but I got it fixed, bought myself a 370Z and gave the G35 to my sister as a birthday present LOL. See pic..

Paul was on here going by the name of Baker but has locked all his threads and hasnt been online since Feb. Not sure if they are still selling parts, call him at the south store.

Last I heard from Carlos (Service guy) at Baker North. Baker Tuning is no more. Brad is no longer working for them and Paul is at the South Store. Jason is still at the North Store.
