    I really hate flat paint on a car. But then, I guess it's the new thing. I think they just look like they're primered. The wagon looks GREAT now....Change the color if you want but I don't understand why you would want to put flat paint on it?? To each his own.

    Wow that all sounds great. If you like satin black you should check out my build thread. As for brakes I suggest you contact Tobin at Kore3. That is where I am getting my brakes from. You have the same Boss wheels as I do. I will be running 325mm ones in the front and 330mm in the rear. BTW there is a group buy going on over at the Impala forum for 1.5 inch wagon sway bars. I will be getting me one.

    Thanks for all the kind words guys....

    Yeah I have not totally decided which way I want to go with the color yet.....I have a whle before I paint it I think....I want to shave some body pieces first....so it will be a while....

    My main thing right now is tint the windows and get to the bottom of this little oil leak I have....

    I am changing the oil, filter, and valve cover gaskets tonight......so hopefully that solves it, I did install a new breather for the oil....cause I think the stock thing might have been leaking.....I mean it is hard for me to swap the motor right now when I only have 56k on it, so I will prob go find the setup I want and take my time and install it when the current one goes or I just get bored with having ZERO power lol
