Damnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn............. ................................. That sucks man. I have family in Houston... I would be PISSED if that happened to me. Is it covered by insurance? If it is I would honestly think they would total it.......

[Boost_Lee]

the center cap is like a shot to the balls, for me

Aaron wtf....first I break my bumper, now this? what TX tuner is next???

DANG that sux!! Your car was so clean!! Time for a 92/93 trunk and carbon fiber hood, GL with fixing it! If you need me to help you look for parts here in DFW let me know, I will be going to the meet in june so I could bring them then.

[JDM white cb7]

Clean ride. Loving the f22b! -JOSH-

[baracuda]

thanks guys, it sucks but got the windsheild replaced and still looking for a part car to get new hood and trunk. as for 92/93 trunk is a no way i like the look of the 90/91 sports more sporty to me i guess. and the shape is better with the recessed plate. IMO and cb7addict i will let you know if i find anything up there

[cb7addict]

Txt me 817-507-9783. That car is like less than 5 mins from me. I havnt went and looked at it yet though.

[cb7addict]

Thanks for the comments Aaron . Im going to hit up the JY tomorrow and see what I can find. It would be best if you could find a hood there in austin unless I find one thats mint or something.

Oh shiznit! I heard about the storm on the emergency radio in my bosses office, hail the size of golf balls. That totally sucks, I hope you have full coverage, otherwise i'd replace as many body panels as I could that were severely damaged, pre-prep the car, then prolly take it to maaco and for $800 get the best prep & paint package they have (3 year warranty, paint & clear coat (2 layers)). I never saw any hail here in Sugar Land. I feel your pain, when I look at your car, I see my car, they were twins afterall.

that's the plan. replace the body panels and prep and paint. the car needs a new paint job anyway. but i have a better hook up with a better quality painter. also working on getting parts together for my collector mod.

If it makes you feel any better I need to repaint my bumper because I 5mph'd someone, and the new bumper didn't have the elastopolymer mixed with the paint, and now the top of the paint on the bumper is spiderwebbed. That was March 9th, then March 10th, I had a 2x 3ft 4"x4" wood coming my way on the 59 n, and I hit one with my driver side front tire, and it gashed it like a knife, and had to get a new tire at full price from discount tire. So it looks like your next cb7addict... j/k

[ECalvo31]

Nice ride. Hail sucks. I hope you get that fix. Good luck

Aaron, did you make your sig or did you have someone else make it?

[KeeleDesign]

good gracious,, that sucks to see......
dang....


then again in my line of work... thats what we love to see!!!!!

on the rebuild

[cloudasc]

How about this? Carbon fiber the entire car, that should give you a nice weight reduction, then just paint like normal over it & I don't think you'll have to worry about dents from hail again.

im not going to paint my carbon fiber that shit looks to good to cover. and today i got my center cap!!!! so 1 part down lot more to go.

well got my ecu in Monday afternoon. install last night and the difference is awesome, *feels like more power all around mostly in the lower rpm range. also it crazy going to 7300 rpms redline is set to 75k and no speed limiter as well just the basic's. thank you very much d112crzy sick tune. and today my Flowmaster 2.5' collector along with a headman headers' exhaust gasket (header to dp area) looks and feels very nice think and solid,its not a shitty ebay gasket for sure. collector will hopefully be going on Friday.

the bad: cel light is on after few minutes of driving now, im thinking its the big vacuum leak i found last night were the intake runners meet the block but i haven't pulled the code yet to see what it says, will be doing it soon. i have a leak in my a/c system because after i got it recharged stopped being cool day after. and i also think the driver side bear was bad from the start when i bought from oreilly's. because after it was installed it sounded like a bad bearing. but i thought it was the passenger side since...well i just replaced the driver side with a brand new bearing, but after it started to sound worse and i replaced the passenger side and the sound never went away i knew it was bad lol....... im still looking for parts but haven't been looking too hard i might just go to the meet like it is lol then everyone can see how bad it is. clear coat is flaking off of the quarter panels and hood were the hail hit it hard.


that's about it pics up when they get taken.
