Lol. Lmk. I'd have to paint it but if the price is right I'm in. I have the cheap black plastic one. It doesn't look terrible but that grill is way nicer

Haha oh yes :nod: Just like old times! I'm going to order my Circle D converter soon. possibly this week ;) I think I'm gonna go with something in the 4200-4400rpm range. As it currently sits, I hope to break into the 12s. Can't have it being slower than my SATURN lol

Thanks Brian :D
As for the rental, I think It will be a little while until the car is rental-worthy. I'm only shooting for 11.50s this season.
