haha I think the SRT will stick around, though I may have to switch my midpipe, I want a CAT . I like the look and sound of my SRT. Though your new unit is the sexiest beast in our big rhombus province.

Nice! Yeah I look forward to installing the Injen. Let me know how your JPM installs go, I still have knee pads and emergency shifter to install as I was so kindly informed about yesterday

haha, well I always said it was the e-brake boot :P and it will look very nice. I need to get in touch with JPM for the PDFS for the parts. they have instructions but they are not posted online yet for some reason. Everything seems very straight forward.

Where did he ship them to? Do you know someone in the US that he shipped them to? I was going to order a set of Grids from him but after the freight, taxes, duty I bailed on it.

I ship to a small business in Bowbells North Dakota, it is like 15-20 minutes south of the border. They accept shipments from all over and while 2/3 times they did not ask for any holding fees, last time they asked me for $20 bucks. Soooo that was a pretty sweet deal lol.

Mertes Implement is the name of the business.

I got the wheels when there was a a nice sale, plus free shipping and I got the rims and tires as a package sale, so I saved even more money. I think my RT5's were ones used in a promo photo. They arrived looking MINT.

Btw, if you end up getting 18" Torques in gunmetal/hyperblack/bronze, and then realize you want RT5's...lets trade haha.

Sounds like a wicked deal. Anyone can ship to this company and pick up from there? I was forever wanting the torques but I think I want the Grids now. For the price of the wheels they look great and I really don't care that Rotas are hated on because they are copies of other brands.

I manage a wholesale tire distribution center in Saskatoon so rubber is not and issue for me If you ever need rubber, let me know!

You went with a CF hood after all eh ? Should look nice! I really like the weight of our stock hoods though.

Well I couldn't stand seeing everyone buying parts over the winter so I made a small purchase myself yesterday and went with the Ultimate LED package from HID Powerhouse as well as their PlatinumR High performance Slim HID kit with 6000K bulbs. I must say, they were excellent to deal with, I placed my order at 6:00 last night online and I received an email confirmation that they have shipped my package already! Free shipping on everything they sell too!

Next purchase will be fogs. I am really debating opening up my headlights and blacking out the chrome in there but I don't know if I trust myself doing this haha. Worst case scenario I destroy my headlights and end up gifting myself with some aftermarkets

Woah woah woah,how come my estimate didn't give me free shipping?!? Is there two HID powerhouses?

Also does anyone have a link or general knowledge on cleaning undercarriage and engine bay? I haven't been keeping up on cleaning them regularly

Not that I am aware of.. It says right on their home page that they ship in Canada and US for free. Maybe there is a minimum order required but I couldn't find anything on their website about it.

I'll let you know what I decide haha. I am still debating this and reading as many threads on this as I can.
