We had about 20 Tibs at the meet, and some other cars stopped by as well. It was cool to meet a lot of new Tib owners in IL. A thread has been started to just discuss a St.Louis/Chicago meet, along with anyone else that wants to come. That's all I can think of.

 

Hola Doug! Good to hear from you bro.
Congrats to Mona and Shawn! Mona, we need pics of the banner, stat.
Good idea for our own regional forum. Not sure the whole country wants to hear about my misfire problems (which are soon to be history).
get them banners out to our boys and girls, they really turn heards. I had two poeple standing next to my car in a parking lot the other day arguing what DK was. One said it was a custom paint company and the other said engine parts.

Hey everyone. I'm so happy to be apart of this new thread & also to be welcomed into a new car club. I have many plans for my car over the winter to get it ready for April. SEMA was awesome. I met the owner of Vertical Doors & he's planning on making the hinges for me & sending them as well. Well here are a couple of pic's for ya. Also I'm posting the artice in the general discussion for you all to read. Sorry about the pic's I don't really know how to re-size them

 

that banner looks awesome Mona! Can't wait to see what the car looks like after winter

hey thanks alot. I'm really happy with it.

 

I am so glad Myerac started this thread! WELCOME to all DK members and I look forward to one day meeting you all. DK is growing with people like Myerac and members like yourselves, and to the one who posted about DK being a paint shop or performance parts, well its all that plus a bag of chips, oh and in my case, VINYL!!!! lol Anyway, this is great!!!!!!

 

Yeah, that was me David. I told them it was all things to all people and then drove away.
Mona, loving that banner! Any teasers on what you have planned over the winter? If you are getting rid of any parts, I have dibs

Thanks DK! I am currently buying a second stock bumper, since that hippo of a racoon split my first on. But we are going to modify it, take away a little, and add a little. I justlove the Ixion front end, but 8 weeks for fiberglass, that may be in poor shape, plus paint compared to exact fitment, and completely one of a kind...hmmmm....oh yeah several chips cheaper....option #2 please!
Glad to hear your misfire issues are going away GT. Nothin worse than a floppin fish!

Hello Ladies and Gents, just wanted to take a few seconds and introduce myself. Those who got to see my application already know my life story, so I will shorten it here. Well my name is Shawn, I'm 27, and currently live in St. Joseph, MI (for about anothe year and a half, then Uncle Sam will send me somewhere new). I run the Engineering Department at a Coast Guard Station here. My baby is a 2004 Special Edition, oh yeah, the yellow one. Check sig for current mods and some parts I have sitting here waiting for installs.
This is the first car I ever really had a chance to Mod. so I hope to meet everyone of you eventually down the line somewhere.

 

hey everyone! good to see we have an official meeting place here now! overdue welcomes to Mona and Shawn. it sounds to be a busy winter for everyone here, myself included. i'm sorry that i missed out on meeting most of you at the DK meet in IL. this coming spring i hope to see some of you at meets and shows. :3_smile:

 

i just want to wish all of you a happy turkey day, eat lots, sleep lots! Glad to see all the winter projects underway. My car is in the shop for winter, it currently is being pieced apart, getting ready for the changes. Also, am pulling the red color scheme, going to go after something everyone needs....also, I ate a 03 Celica GT for lunch yesterday, but red always gives me gas....

Hey well good for you, someone needs to show these imports that sharks don't mess around. LOL :woot: You have a great turkey day. I've started on my tibby already. LED'S. Hopefully finish them saturday & that will be 1 thing off my list to do's.

 

I have not started my winter project yet because the family might be moving, and if they do, then i will no longer be able to garage my car for winter, so gotta wait and see, but it should be fun to drive when spring rolls around.

 

Hey happy Turkey day to everyone. My car is getting the first of its winter work done as we speak. In the shop getting the subs installed finally. I cant wait. I have been without subs for months now and I need bass darnit. After that I got Headers, Underbody LEDs, and Verticle Doors sitting here waiting to go on. Everyone have a safe holiday.

 

Hopefully everyone had a wonderful turkey day! looks like i am gonna be able to start on my winter projects this weekend! i'm excited for spring to come and see how everyone's projects over the winter turned out! keep up the good work everyone and if you are ambitious..post some pics!

 

Well I finally finished up my underbody LED'S & they look great. I've still got plenty on my list to get finished before April. Hopefully I can get more done next weekend.

 

Hope everyone is ready for this next, much more expensive hoilday....Santa better bring me what I asked for, I've been extremely naughty in a nice way. Sorry I haven't been on much, but with out anything but work and work, and work...did I mention work, there isn't much to say. The engine prep is done for the blower soCOME ON FAT MAN!!!!!

 

SC or turbo? Can't wait to see it!

 

Burning the late oil eh bro'? How the hell have ya been??? Man I need to call you! Gotta get together soon, go look for that band again. SC all the way. I want the turbo, but I have got so much prep already for the SC, I really don't wanna back track, plus the boss wants a Magnum or the Stang GT 05, and either way i have told her it will beblown. Something about a magnum with a 3 gun intake just out of the hood sounds like it'd look cool.

 

No more of that band. Ever. But we definately need to get together again.
So are you going with RIPP? I've still yet to decide what I'm going to do this winter. NGM stage 3 sounds like a possibility, unless I find an Alpine cheap.
I wish my boss would demand a mustang! The 05's are beautiful. My boss still is demanding a house, whcih means no RIPP for me.

 

keep a spot open for me in a couple years

 

OK...Time to post a few pics of projects that have been completed thus far. First the Subs. Waiting on grills to show up.

 

And now for the doors. Special thanks go out to Darren, NateX, Babemona, and SilverGTGirlKC for all the help, beer, comedy, heckling, cursing, and company throughout the install. Can't wait for the next big install.
