It'd be cool for someone else to have another, so no ones waiting around for just one.

Good deal

I got my work schedule for the new job and I work every other weekend and guess which one I work

Was waiting for that to let you all know if I could swing by

eastwest2300 · 08-30-2012, 06:57 PM

So you're not coming?

Would you still need a caulk gun for that? Looks like you could just use the tip that's on the tube itself to squeeze it out. This is just a guess though since I've never used sealant before.

yep that goes in a caulk gun. I have this weekend off and am thinking of heading to the meet in Columbia (if I'm reading it right in the other thread) but I know you guys have a big cruise also. Shado was talking about doing the meet and I can move this topic to there if need be but I can bring a caulk gun and show him what he needs to do.

Yeah you need a caulk gun, the sealant must be pushed out.

This weekend's meet would have been in Fairfax, but at the same time and location as the starting point for the cruise. If you're gonna come out there, might as well cruise with us. There's a good chance Shado might be there alone after we leave for the cruise

lol fairfax is a little too far for me, ya know gas is expensive

However, this youtube vid is exactly what you need to know. I'm too lazy to find the link to embed the video but here ya go

How To Use A Caulk Gun and a Secret - YouTube

So easy a caveman could do it. Important thing is to wipe the tip cause you don't want your caulk everywhere

Prolly linked myself out of rep points but they are always appreciated

eastwest2300 · 08-30-2012, 07:15 PM

Yeah Im definitely NOT a caulk gun expert, so the video will come in handy.. thank you sir!

eastwest2300 · 08-31-2012, 02:34 PM

Hey fellas, just an update, if you need to buy that Butyl Rubber, if you go to the link that I provided on eBay, the company ships it out of Philadelphia.. so it'd only be a couple days for you to get it.

Anyone have experience installing the illuminated kick plates?? I just ordered a set on eBay..

Another mod to add to the pile sitting uninstalled in the garage?

I think the truth is coming out here. This isn't a gathering at EW's house to do headlight mods, this is a "since we are waiting lets install these kick plates. Oh and I got this other stuff laying in the corner. Oh and we can knock out this GTM turbo thingy real quick"

Sorry man, had to bust balls here. When you meet me you can kick me in the nuts for that
