The Official 2008 AcquaCow Thread Containment Thread!

AcquaCow · 02-04-2008, 02:04 PM

Alright... I'm going to make my best effort to keep any/all updates this year to one thread...photos included

I started ~60 threads in MAIC in 2007... gonna try to keep it to one this year...

First off, my Flickr account:
http://flickr.com/photos/acquacow/collections/

Along with my MAIC photo pool everyone is welcome to contribute to, with the one general rule that I want all pics to have people in them... so no shots of cars just sitting by themselves...
http://flickr.com/groups/maic/

For those that missed some of the fun last year...here are the threads worth mentioning...

Who knows what 2008 will bring...and what I will break...

I already have a few projects in the works...
- Set of wheels for Jard in Rustoleum hammered copper.
- Repair of my gunmetal RS wheels so that I can repaint and sell them.
- New set of gold STi BBS wheels that need repair + paint.
- New exhaust setup for the N/A RS along with redyno...
- New coilover setup for the RSTi + rear cage.
- Aftermarket lighting for each car with help from Daniel Stern.

Good Luck Dave! Let's see if you can actually pull it off, should be interesting. Hope you have a less expensive break/fix year this year and more modding! Just try not to give them to much ammunition to flame you this year...Look forward to your future endeavors.

This is probably not how you want to be remembered...but...

When someone asks me how tight to make something when we are working in the garage...

A pretty common response is "Tight, but not AcquaCow'd."
