    I'm getting bored with the all black theme and I got polished t/q stars on their way here, so hopefully that will break up all the black. And I'll probly buy new headlights and clear corners in a couple weeks when payday rolls around.

    thank you sir. Yeah the red calipers was a spur-of-the-moment type deal when I was painting the rims.

    Nice job on the grills, I think they look perfect. Black wheels with a silver rim would continue the theme. Overall, badass lookin.

    Would silver calipers be to much contrast with the polished t/q *'s?

    I think silver calipers would look decent & that would be something new to see.

    just spray paint. I mean their done right, I took an autobody class. I'm keeping the tires though, since they only have like 1000 miles on them. Maybe I'll let them go with the tires for the right price...

    That's no excuse not to get a laptop. Power management runs in the background by default on all Windows machines unless you turn it off and it uses very little resources. 90% of the software running in the background on Dells now can be turned off or uninstalled. They put a ton of their propaganda crap in there plus the free trials of terrible anti-virus and anti-spy software.

    I got one of their Netbooks recently and spent 45 minutes uninstalling all the crap software included on it. Now it's a pretty snappy little machine.

    Thats not the only reason laptops are fail... you pay how much to have to throw it away when you're done? if you plan your desktop moves, you can easily upgrade without too much hassle or upgrading small pieces at a time.

    Most of the screens are terrible as well.

    No point in arguing with me on that one.
