    V6-V8 engine swap or buy a V8??

    Buy the SS for sure. Conversion could be a prick of a job if **** hits the fan. Also is there any chance of v6 parts breaking due to the extra v8 power?

    Hi guys, im wanting to install a 12" or so strip (probably red) in the engine bay just behind the front grill.

    Pet peeve

    ppl who dont know rules for right of way and just look at you like "help me i dont know how to drive" when sitting at a crossroad, equally ppl who dont realize when they have just cut you off or nearly caused an accident.

    what did you do to your car today?

    drove it straight to the bottle-o from work, bought a carton of budweiser, installed a MACE CAI and cleaned the MAF sensor. Washed it (very thoroughly), tire shined and touched up bumpers with bumper back paint. Cleaned engine bay ready for a degrease. Drank more buds and admired the ride

    Awesome guide Is it really as simple as you've shown? Looks too easy Also in step 4, why do you need to take the vinyl off. Is it to get the button off. Also are there any tricks/ techniques to doing so or is it just twist and pull. Cheers
