Thanks. I'd like to get there, but if i do make it, I'll be flying out. Depends on how things turn out with the house I'm buying. Looks like closing is going to be some time in mid April so I'm probably going to have a lot going on around Shelbyfest.

If you need your garage finished when it's ready, don't call Keith if you're in a hurry.

Not looking good...I've brought it to about 5 different painters and no one wants to touch it....that's the reason I haven't put the new painted KR strut brace in yet. I noticed that Lethal Performance sells a carbon fiber version of the Whipple intake tube so I'll probably have to bite the bullet and buy that one. Supposedly its the same exact intake tube that I have only in c.f. Of course it's 285 dollars so I'm a little :mad::mad:.

Thanks Dave. The garage is already pretty much finished. It's already insulated and has drywall up. Only thing i'm doing is getting insulated garage doors and new openers installed. I will probably run some ducting as well to make the garage at least partially climate controlled.

The guy who did the powder coating does hydro dipping as well, and felt pretty sure it would not work on the rubberized plastic.
