Eh, you obviously don't care, but here it is for anyone interested:

Swirlin' should start as soon as Steve's back from Florida.

We didn't want to swirl inside, and the weather over the last month has sucked. Spring's here though, so one of these weekends I should have some new pics.

Thanks dude!

No prob. I liked how it screws on, so you can mount it just like a locknut. I'm a big fan of easily reversible mods.

Chris · 04-25-2007, 05:42 PM

Yeah, that's pimp. It's pretty slick looking too.

This Monday and Tuesday the weather was pretty nice in CT, mid to high 70s all day. But I don't know about MA, even though it's only one state up the weather could be very different. Hope you guys can hurry up and get started on that, I've already forgotten the color scheme.

Chris · 04-25-2007, 05:55 PM

Yeah it was nice. I started drinking Friday night, and stopped mid-day on Sunday, mixing in 18 holes of golf. On the first really nice weekend of the season, the LAST thing I was going to do was paint.

Those replacement nuts are a great idea. Thanks for finding that, Dave. I remember seeing them somewhere a while back, but couldn't remember if it was at WD or Allparts, and for some reason i just couldn't find it.

That's why I started sanding my RG today, the weather has been lousy all weekend it seems.

Ryan · 05-03-2007, 12:33 AM

Where's the swirlin' ?
