Good chance I wont be going now.... Lady friend wants to spend the weekend on the yacht in Long Beach and just happens to be the same weekend. So sorry guys! However, if any of you are in the Long Beach marina over that weekend, hit me up and come chill with us!
This thread makes me glad I dont have time on my hands. I am too cheap to pay someone to install parts so if I dont have time to install them, its not happening. Otherwise, I would be in the same boat as most of you... Rough calculations say I am still below $5k at the moment with $1k of those...
Getting a list together of the interested party isnt a bad idea. However, I do not want to get any sort of deposits until I 100% verify that this is going to work and get my prices nailed down. Honestly, if there are enough people interested, I may just change my oil early so we can get this...

I think that is my new favorite shade of bronze/copper!

Who is interested in a real functioning dipstick for our cars? I have a bolt on solution that requires zero modifications and is a simple 5 min install (when changing your oil). I will have pictures of everything installed once I change my oil. Price point is probably going to be around $100 for...
