View Full Version : DFW Detail/Mod Day Feeler
BlackSapphire 04-13-2008, 01:56 AM Hey guys, many of us in the DFW area have never met. I know that many of us are working on various things - suspensions, stereos, detailing, etc. It really doesn't matter what. Let me know if you're interested in getting together at my house beer and air tools at your disposal. I am more than happy to assist in any way. Bring your new valve cover gaskets, bring your new struts/shocks, bring your cleaning suppliles if you just want to make her shine - I have a PC here as well. I was so insanely jealous of gumbi et al's detail day that I'd like to replicate that here in the DFW area (I offer my house unless someone has a better setup).
If you're interested, let me know! Once we get some interest, we'll go about picking out a date.

DaJackel 04-13-2008, 02:17 AM I might come down to Dallas for something like this with my padre, but I am waiting for new head lights and tails, and when those come in, the installation of them and the M5 bumper. Hopefully it'll be sometime within 4 weeks :shifty

How hard can it be?
What do you mean, like pads? Rotors and pads? Or an entire new kit?
razahyde 04-13-2008, 01:40 PM Are any of you experienced in changing brakes?
brakes are pretty straight forward. unbolt,and then rebolt. bleeding can be a PITA depending on what you are bleeding with.
Awesome Raza. You could be the dallas version of Keith. :)
werd...i was actually up there in NJ last time they had a meet and i had my detail stuff up there. got a few members cars in haha.

You were?
BTW BlackSaph, I hope your meet comes out great! Its really fun hosting and having a few good friends just hang out. Detailing IS tiresome. Just ask Keith. I didnt do much detailing but my legs and back were hurting. Im out of shape though.

:rolleyes New pads and rotors. And yes, I know that changing them is easy, but as Raza said, I know bleeding them can be a PITA.

Unless you feel like trying to replace your brake fluid, I wouldn't be worrying about bleeding them.

Why the frowny face? :(
gumbi4u 04-13-2008, 09:13 PM Why the frowny face? :(
He's sad because he doesnt have cool peeps like us around his area. :(
BlackSapphire 04-14-2008, 01:17 AM im in! hope someone can help me install thrust arm bushings!!
Doing just the bushings or the whole arms with the new bushings already installed?
BlackSapphire 04-14-2008, 01:21 AM Cool guys.... I kind of just let this thread run it's course for a day to see if people had any interest or not. As it looks, we've got about a half-dozen cars that can probably make it. I've got plenty of room and cool neighbors so I don't think that would be an issue. I will supply beer and edibles so come hungry. Then, just bring your tools, jacks, parts, whatever and we can all do some round-robin assistance. As I said before, I've got air tools as well that you guys are more than welcome to borrow.
We just need to pick some dates - I assume saturdays work well for everyone. I'm pretty tied up for the next two of them however. I'm open for suggestions.
