All the missing pics is due to a problem he had late last month. Probably won't be seeing them unless the photo hosting service can retrieve them.

SPOHN · 12-05-2011, 09:23 PM

For those of you that don't know last month I ended a nearly four year relationship with my GF. I grew apart and decided to leave. We were living together. Shared a laptop together and I guess my dunb a$$ should of transferred my pics to a hard drive. But I really never thought of it figuring without a doubt she would allow me my pics. But no! She went into my puotobucket account and deleted it all. And all the pics I had on the laptop (nearly 7000) she keepIng those also. Basically trying to hold them over my head in some wild plan to keep me. That's not happing. It's truly a sad thing for myself. Is really hurts me. Some of those pics were of my son. It's really out of character for her. But you know what they say about a scorn woman. Even now I can't believe she doing it. And I'm not going to ever talk to her again so it's a dead stick.

dude that sucks

sorry to hear that chris

Skeeterbop · 12-05-2011, 09:43 PM

Back on the subject of cars, Are you referring to the black plastic slats in the front bumper when you mentioned removing the front grill? I'll be patiently waiting for the pics

SPOHN · 12-06-2011, 06:07 AM

That's right. I'll have the pics up tomorrow night.

I got a email from my ex this morning. She claims she's going to bring the pics of our laptop to me this morning on a couple of flash drives. Cross fingers. It's going to take some time to get them back on here if so.

Yeah I'm interested in what you're doing there too. If those slats were gone, I could have better access through the front (for inspecting oil lines, and adding/removing the front oil cooler blockoff plate for street driving). On the other hand, the dinky little slats do nothing for incoming small rocks, which have been regularly making dings in the front surface of my oil cooler. It'd be nice to remove them completely, and replace them with a removable wire mesh or something to help with both problems is what I'm thinking.

SPOHN · 12-06-2011, 10:23 AM

That's my plan to go pick up some mesh this weekend and paint it. Also allows easier access to adjust my oil cooler plate.

Skeeterbop · 12-06-2011, 08:48 PM

That's coo, I just want to know how to get rid of them. I don't plan on putting in a mesh, since i don't think it will let any more through than already gets through. I just think it would look better without them. I'll check back tomorrow

And hopefully your Ex pulls through with the pictures.

SPOHN · 12-06-2011, 08:56 PM

By doing what I did it really opens it up so I feel some mesh will make it look more suttle. Course when I use the plati-dip and paint the center section that will help also. I should be able to get them up tomorrow. I move around a lot and didn't bring my camera to upload. But I have to back home tomorrow for a brief moment

SPOHN · 12-07-2011, 09:06 PM

I have been planning this for awhile and finally did it. I like the look. All I did was cut it out and sand down the rough edges where they connected. This weekend I'm going to purchase some mesh to put in it's place. I'm also going to buy some Plati-Dip to paint the center section. Those two things will really bring all this together IMO. I'm also about to purchase a power steering cooler so that will take care of the ugly OEM one.

Skeeterbop · 12-07-2011, 10:48 PM

Looks good to me Spohn!!

christian370z · 12-07-2011, 11:23 PM

It would be nice to see some black mesh in place, that would look great! It looks good, I'm glad you left the fangs.

happytheman · 12-08-2011, 12:00 AM

In for further updates! Looking forward to seeing mesh in place!

I don't know how I feel about mesh. Reminds me of the big body kits back in the day
