Power Steer?!?!?!?! Cooooooool
And the microwave sensor is a great addition to your alarm, I'm sick to death of microwaves trying to knock my car off!!!!!

LOL, just bein a dick.

Great to have you on board Joel, the fact that you have 2 convertables makes me insanley jealous......... We'll have to organise a cruise up there soon (once my Exas on the road) so I can see this thing in the flesh. Are you going to end up doing the E15ET conversion?

If you want someone to do some rust/paint work, PM Pulsar-Man. He painted this:

i have a couple of wings left, if anyone wants one $100 and you can take aone away - thats what they cost me - not after a profit..
it comes wrapped in the factory box along with instructions screws, and thicker tension bars to make up for the extra weight of the wing.

if someone can fit my thicker tension bars for me ill give em a wing for $50.00! i dont have the right tools and a little needs to be cut off the ends with a grinder as the convertable has extra bits that normal exas dont have and they get in the way...

renegade bro, ive got someone else who i am talking paint with :)
