I have it in my garage... $30 bucks and it's yours... the reason so cheap is that it is slightly warped, you can use a heat gun to slowly bent it back into shape... I however just spend $70 bucks and got a new one that was black!

I honesly do not know... but with the type of plastic it is it can be heated back into shape....
I would guess that I had too much wiring behind it and it kinda bowed it out and then coupled with the summer heat! but honestly I dunno!

I started to see the wiring from inside the pillar, while looking through the windshield from the outside!
Like I said ifyou can get a heat gun it can be molded back into shape... I just don't have one and just bought another one!

I have a nice heat gun that I bought last year to help with my vinyl stripes but I don't know the slightest thing about 'molding' a pillar back into shape

You got the closest anyone has ever gotten to one of my personal tunes!
LNF08ecotec has another one that will prolly never leave our cars! Yes you heard right... mine will be tuned as soon as I cross 500 miles, oil change, and then it's on like donky kong.
Then it's charge piping, intercooler, water injection...

Ok well I got some races last night.
Raced some yellow car, not really sure what the **** it was. Kinda looked like a monte carlo. had a custom yellow paint job with metalic in it. 4 door. loud ass exhaust. Raced from 40 to like 100. immediatly he pulled ahead 3/4 of a car then i heard him hit redline and i flew past him after I NLS'd into the next gear.
Then i got to the Wilmington meet and a black caliber SRT-4 wanted to race a balt and i stepped up to the plate. Thought id get spanked because I know they put down more stock then I do and his **** sounded modded. Anyways we did a roll from 35 which was dead even. Then a dig which he got traction a tiny bit sooner then I did but once again it was dead even, my nose stayed at his door handle all the way through 4th gear. Then we turned around and did a 40 roll which i got spanked. What i hear the TC's cant get **** at 40 rolls. ANyways we met back up and he just has a straight pipe and a blow off plate. His car was nice and sounded good. was a cool guy too.

I hear our cars suck from the 40 roll. I did significantly worse from the 40 then I did from the 30-35 or dig. Do you brake boost your 40 roll like you were sayin?
