I know I am a newbie.. but I just want to put in my 2 cents. I am gainfully employed but I do not owe anyone anything. 20 years ago I was making 15K and after 2 years had 10K in the bank. I just got a car from my father when I left home. I worked in customer service until I could earn a degree that would pay what I wanted. I worked my way through college by finding a company that would reimburse me for college classes. I have never had debt except when I bought a house. then I paid it off in 10 years. I always pay cash for my cars and owe nothing. I didnt do it with government assistance and if the economy goes in the tank I could work at Walmart to feed myself and family. Anyone can do it. If I need health ins I would look for an employer who would pay for it. I would pick a job that is in demand and go to school. My father worked at the old GM plant for years. Made much more money in a year than I have yet to make in a year and has 0 to show for it and is on SS and medicare with a pension. That will never be me. I dont want to pay for someone who has not learned to plan their life by raising my taxes. I give a lot to charity and homeless because that is what God wants us to do. He never said for the Government to take care of the poor, he said it was for us to do.

I have never driven one but I bet they are like my old civic Si hatch... not super fast but fun to drive and enjoy

is this plastidip?

Keep in mind to find this stuff you will have to go online.. most places only carry black the the glossifier and the metalizer are only available online... I think this is very bad market distribution since there is a need for this suff local.

go to dipyourcar.con they have a lot of answers. but if you drive often then you will have to reapply every 6 months if you do it right. 4-6 coats. very durable but don't do auto car wash

I am going to use it on my Gold CrossLace GTA wheels. I will be black gloss with silver lip for a while. I do like my current black wheels but looking for a change next spring season. Nice to know about the car washes and you experience! I heard otherwise so real world is good.

actually why not just use Plasti-dip on them first and realize what you want... since you can take it back off!! See below: http://www.torontomazda3.ca/forum/showthread.php?62368-Plasti-Dip-on-how-to/page3

yeah...black powdercoated wheels suck http://www.thirdgen.org/techboard/picture.php?albumid=1773&pictureid=30746 http://www.thirdgen.org/techboard/picture.php?albumid=1773&pictureid=30745

totally agree. ugh

by the way this place is run by a very old guy and they have been in business for 110 years. I think they have a bit of experience.

Katz Tires 475 E Main St Columbus, OH 43215(614) 224-1924 $$$$$$$$40$$$$$$ I just called them for my GTA.. it is for ALL 4! I know cause the swapped rims out for my CRV with TPS for 50. 2 years ago.! Im going there next year to put my gold rims back on except i am using pastidip to make them black and glossifier to make em shiny give me some rep points:) LOL

Thanks! Glad to be here:)

cool. I used to be a "Car-lot" boy in college at a chevy dealership. it was after I got rid of my 86TA and I used to drive a RS 5 speed V8 with T's to lunch. I feel in love with how the 5-speeds drive (like a friggen muscle car from the 60s) and when I saw mine I just had to have her.

nice. very nice.

Man that is clean.. I know back in the day! thats like my 2nd fav color of GTA... 1st was black;)

That would be cool sorry I was gone for a few days!

We could compare:) is yours the 5.7?

Is yours a TTA?

Thanks man!

It comes with better handling (WS6), fully pumpable seats, monochrome paint, and the better faster motors for the year

I always thought the 2nd gen (late 70s) were the worst gen:)

Thanks! I pride myself on my introductions.. j/k I noticed that it was a big requirement so I wanted to pur my best face forward

ahh the stories I could tell:) racing a 5.0 mustang.. going to 90.. having them behind me.. till I hear a burnout and they pass like I am standing still... had to be nitro and super charger

ha ha.. funny
