@DarrenDriven - I think I found the all the right parts for the gun except for the coupler (male - male). I can't find anything that is bored out enough so I'm going to just have my shop take care of that this afternoon and the setup should be complete. Did you pick up a pressure washer?

Good to see everyone tonight, I can't believe I forgot my buffer! O well it was a decent drive to go grab it and I think I found a faster way home.
Darren your cars stance makes me weak in the knees. Just a little rake with taller rubber in the rear is perfect imho. Maybe 1/2 inch down in the back but I now know coilovers are my next mod. Nick, let me know about Sunday and Kevin good luck with the car tomorrow, your dropping it off to get the kit fit again ya? Anyway, good times gents, we should have a full detail shop by the end of all this. |

Yeah, man, that was chill. I like our tag-team detailing co-op. Can't wait to throw wax on her tomorrow. Enjoy...

I think this needs to be a Wednesday night ritual.
@DarrenDriven - Thanks for providing such a great space! It's been really cool these past couple of weeks getting to know some other people with the same interests. @Zach - I think my pad is still on your buffer. If I only would have checked my text before heading over I could have saved you the trip to pick up your machine since I brought mine along.

Yeah, your pad is on his buffer (you guys are so umm... will this forum let me say gay?)
My vacation schedule gets really screwy soon... so Wed night ritual might not work, but we'll have to play it by ear and try to do it once a week.

Every car I've driven prior to this were beaters. Perhaps I'll stop by one of these times to learn how to properly wash/detail a car.
