Yea I'm using t clamps on everything but where the piping goes into the intercooler because ETS forgot to send me 4 clamps and every place I went to didn't have any. They had to order them but I wanted the car done that day. If anything I'll take the front bumper off one day and replace them with t clamps.
Thats why I took my car to Ventura's. My hood has no chips yet but my front bumper has a few from the cruise we went on last year. Those dirt roads did a lil bit of damage but no big deal, its not gonna be perfect forever.

From my experience any aftermarket paint will never be as durable as a good OEM paint. Mitsu's paint on the evo is known to be kinda crappy but a good OEM paint job will always withstand more abuse from road debris and such in comparison to aftermarket.

As Paul said you can get them at pretty much any dealership, I think I got two for less than $5.00, I would call and order them/see if they are in stock ahead of time.
BTW, Dave, I'm pretty sure I spotted your car today on Maple St but it wasn't being driven by you. I was following Greg in his Evo.

Totally understandable, I'm the same way. Though I figured it was your Dad visiting (ment to say it was an older guy driving), my Dad's the only other person I trust to drive my car since he won't drive it hard or fast.
Wish I had known I was going to be in the area this weekend, I would have gone to watch the Auto X!

I'm glad that's what you think of the people that help you out (for free, if I remember correctly).

If I remember correctly it was you who told me not to take things to seriously, I didn't say any names and I'm not talking about anyone anyway. If you want to get pissed of about a little sarcasm go for it. I have appreciated all your help (not just you, but Turco, Paul R, Paul S, Dex, Josh, Chris, everyone), it was a joke, just like you guys have ragged on me.
Get over it.
