Sea level rising!! If you live near the water, look out! It's climate change!

Sorry kidding. Hope you can get settled somewhere, that's rough.

I hope you had renter's insurance! That should cover temporary relocation.

I love Fry's! It's the only store that has real electronic components/parts, equipment, and tools that you can use for projects!

Thank God, @MyRx found my shivering ass behind that bush in the lot. I was laying on that very cold pavement struggling to stay conscious while munching on a Jbee corned beef pandesal sandwich. YOU ARE MY HERO!!!

It was cool to meet everyone! Wanted to follow up since people asked how much lighter the Seibon Wet CF hood was, only a few lbs, the stock hood is surprisingly light. Tonight I put on the Seibon wet CF trunk, and that's definitely lighter, probably less than half the weight of the original, which is heavier than you'd think, and explains why there are 2 air pistons to lift and hold it. I ended up taking one of them out entirely because the CF trunk is so much lighter.

Now I may have to make an excuse for a battery relocation. Wonder if there's a kit that will put it under the rear cargo shelf. I'd move it and add the wiring weight, if I didn't lose any cargo space for it... not that I use it very often, but yeah.

9 cars showed up . St. John's was packed but we waited out a party so we were able to sit together FTW. A welcoming new face, so new and already went carbon, nice. As usual, the talks inside the restaurant and outside were a blast. Fun times as always. See y'all next time.

Thanks for sharing. Best CF hood fitment I've see yet so you got lucky haha. Similar to the battery, Id like to go lighter too. Just can't decide between price or weight - different kits are lighter but costs more. Let us know what you do

I was thinking of Starbucks Camino/Lawrence again. We had a great turnout last time we were here so perhaps we can try it again. I'll be at Rivermark earlier grabbing a bite with co-workers so I may arrive a bit late.

Also, next week's meet may not happen for me b/c of the holiday.

The week after is new years as well. I need to come out for one of these to drop of bushings to south bay peeps, but it prob won't be until after the new year for me.
