Default My trip to Stillen today...

So, I'm getting married about 5 miles away from where Stillen is located, so while the soon-to-be misses was getting her hair done, I decided to stop by Stillen and see what they got going on down there. This is a cool a** place! I talked with Adam who gave me a nice tour of the shop. I got to see the famous 300ZX that won the 1994 24 Hours of Daytona, 12 Hours of Sebring and 24 Hours of Le Mans. I also got to see the new Stillen bumpers, and I was told by Adam, that there is a new iteration out with subtle differences (so mke sure you ask about it should you go that route).

I also saw Phimosis' car awaiting his its supercharger kit. Those of you who have not seen the S/C installed on a 370 yet, its SOO sexy in person that its almost worth buying just due to its aesthetic finish (although the obvious performance of the kit is the sexiest part IMO)

I also got to meet the man, the myth, the legend... Steve Millen. That pretty much made my day! Anyway, here are a couple pictures I snapped from the crackberry...

Sorry... the only other picture I have is of Phomosis' ride, but it has his license plate in clear view, and I don't have PS. There wasn't much going on being a holiday weekend and all. Saw a crate of unpowdercoated, unprepped intake manifolds for the SC systems, saw the shop 370Z which is all over this site (except it has a new Seibon CF hood on it) and then I met Mr. Millen. No GTR or anything, just a couple of Mustangs...

Why does everyone freak out about having their license plate in a photo? Seriously, do you realize how many people look at your plate every day? It's not like your social security number is on your license plate...

I don't know why they do either but I know that plenty of people block out their license plate before putting photos online. So, without talking to Phomosis first, I wouldn't post pictures of his license plate. He might care about such things, I don't know. I think its just common courtesy.
