  1. I do have a couple designs made in prototypes already. Hardware will be all black on production units.
  2. Martini RSR design is something I've thought about redoing a little bit. It's inspired by the Martini RSR, but I can't use silver on the outside b/c it gets dirty too easy. That's something I've found with collars with lighter colors.
  3. Probably. I do have decals of the illustrations made.
  4. I chose these colors as I believe they are the most recognizable. Curious what you would find more known? BMW colors, TRD colors, and the Martini scheme as pretty well known. The pink pig Porsche is there to give a girly option for people who race cars.
  5. So I had an idea to launch a motorsports themed dog accessories brand. I've been working on this for a few months, I have our first prototypes, but I want to know what you all think. These are the leash designs (front on top, back on bottom) and there are matching collars. Would you buy one? Would you want to wait until we had a design that spoke more to your genre of cars? Before I order inventory and go full deep into this I need to make sure there is a market for this stuff.
  6. We are currently looking for 1 counter person. Position would be 10AM-7PM weekdays and 8AM-4PM weekends. This position had a rotating schedule, Thurs-Friday off then Friday-Saturday off. Parts experience is a plus, but willing to train someone with some car knowledge and a positive attitude. Pay is dependent on experience ~$34-$45K per year commission goal based pay plan.
  7. Napa on Feddern Ave makes some A/C lines. You'd have to take it in to see if they can make it or not though.

    Traveling to LA

    So I'm going out to LA for the Japanese Classic Car Show and for a couple days at Disneyland in September. It'll be my first time in Cali. We'll be staying at an AirBNB near Knotts Berry Farm. I was also invited to the Hoonigan garage and to tour Jay Leno's garage b/c we work with these companies. What other kind of cool things can we get into? I was thinking about the Griffith Observatory would be cool to check out. Already must dos- Peterson Museum Little Toyko Hollywood sign pictures In and Out Burger (this is what my son is most excited about) Are the studio tours really worth it? Anyone been on the Warner Bros/Paramount/Sony studios tour?
  9. If you enjoy doing it, it sounds like a win win opportunity. The business I started almost 2 years ago is on the verge of breaking even and I'll be able to soon quit my full time job to focus on our growth. Just make sure this partner is going to be there for the long haul. I started with 3 friends and I'll soon be the only one left. I'm currently working with some potential investors to help scale the company huge within the next 18-24 months.
  10. The trailer is cool. I give you that, it's a sweet setup. I really don't like being a hater, but just the way the dude has came across on the internet and in person it forces me to be a hater.
  11. I saw it at SEMA and met him, can confirm. Dude is a complete douche bag. Car is a POS. The work done is shotty at best. I was so excited to see an AE86 at SEMA, b/c I'm an AE86 guy. 3/10. Wrap is a cool design though, that's what gets people's attention.
  12. Yeah this is neat. We had dinner at the french restaurant at the Paris hotel across the street and sat out on the patio in front of Bellagio. It was pretty sweet.
  13. Pawn Stars is boring, waste of time in my opinion. Really just depends on what you like to do. The neon sign graveyard is pretty neat. In and Out Burger/Shake Shack just to try the hype. Walking around the mega strip hotels/casinos is fun. People watching at night on Fremont St. I wanted to rent an exotic and drive out to the Hoover Dam, maybe this year. I'm not a club or nightlife person so when I went for SEMA last year I didn't do any of that.
  14. Marc took great care of me with my mortgage. A+
  15. Are you trying to buy her a car or get rid of her? lol
  16. If you find a decent 240z or 280z for $3500 let me know and I'll buy 2. For $3500 you won't find much for an '80s RWD Japanese import except the less desirable. Prices have skyrocketed in the last 5-10 years. With that budget I'd probably look at a RA40 Celica coupe or a TE72 Corolla. MK2 Celica Supra and MK3 Supra can be found in the price range as well. You may be able to find a decent SR5 AE86. These are all right in my wheelhouse if you need any more information. I'm completely biased, but I don't think there is a more fun car to drive than an AE86, but you would be really hard pressed to find a decent one for that price range. Most GTS cars are going for $6k+ now and RHD imports for $12k+.
  17. I'm not a fan of Cup of Joe, I normally stopped elsewhere for a coffee on my way there. I am not deterred at all.

    Free stuff

    My parents also had the same couches. haha
  19. I don't think I've even heard of a single movie on that list.
  20. I always thought this would be a pretty cool job to have. It was always one of my back up ideas of something I'd enjoy doing. I have nothing to add, but I'm sure previously being a body shop estimator would probably be very good experience to get an adjuster job.
  21. PetrolBox finally got our own warehouse space and figured I'd see if anyone has stuff they are looking to get rid of first. Need a conference table (6'-8' length) and chairs. Pallet Jack Dolley Cheap decent condition couch
  22. I always hate getting prices on GM parts. It seems that no matter where I call I just get grumpy 40-50 year old guys who seem like you're bothering them. I'm always willing to help out with Toyota parts. Luckily Toyota doesn't sell parts like that.
  23. Yes. Facebook ads, don't waste your money on radio ads. For B2B consulting stuff I'd think Linkedin ads could work well for you as well. Bob helped me start my company and he's been a great mentor to me.
  24. I talked with him 2 weeks ago at SEMA. Pretty nice guy, invited me to his viewing party of the episode, but I wasn't able to make it. We are hoping to work with him soon.
