  1. Normally these would just go through a PM, but just because its public, I'll try to clear it up publically. I don't care about what you say about anyone else. But please don't bad mouth me, over a common ford problem of T5's getting stuck in gear. Now I know you never said my name in this, but if "Bob knows Joe", Bob knows where the work was done.
  2. I didn't get a chance to show you where we were at with your parts today. So here is what we have done. Thermal Welds on inside and outside of cover to clean up license plate holes. (Emblem will be removed for repaint) http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u298/pimpjettay2k/IMG_5980.jpg Primed License Plate Area Of Front Cover http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u298/pimpjettay2k/IMG_5972.jpg Repaired and Primed Lower Valance http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u298/pimpjettay2k/IMG_5973.jpg http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u298/pimpjettay2k/IMG_5974.jpg http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u298/pimpjettay2k/IMG_5975.jpg http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u298/pimpjettay2k/IMG_5977.jpg http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u298/pimpjettay2k/IMG_5979.jpg
  3. Put the fish tank in... It will look a lot cooler. And its not as hard to take care of as you would think, if you've never done it before... Spend a grand and a half and go saltwater, then you'll have some maintenance to keep up with.
  4. Tell me more about the material you used for the screen and where you got it?
  5. I got to this late and didnt read past page 1... Go test drive a Trailblazer, then go test drive a Honda Pilot. I would recommend a Pilot, they are smooth riding, great powered, reliable vehicles. I drive one just about every 3 days, and I love them. They have 1in less space then a Tahoe. (I measured)
  6. Rob can you do some copy and past magic? Say I need to log in, you know that will never happen! I have a friend looking for a Cobra Convertible. This newer body?
  7. Looking good. That shops hardly dirty. I'll show you dirty!
  8. Like stated above its adds to cost. Per panel you should see 1 hour added to the labor hour for the pearl coat. No more no less. Is it hard to match? Not really, 3 coats of base, 2 coats of pearl and 2 coats of clear. Can it be fucked up? For sure! Will the cover be a different color? Good chance, but you may get lucky. If it wasn't pearl would it be a different color? There is a good chance in that too, as factory paint and aftermarket application, is a different process. As well as working environment, like humidity, temperature, etc. Subtrates also add to this color difference, as platic and metal effect paint differently, as to how they lay out.
  9. Like I said, Tim, when the time gets closer I will put a tread up here. It takes months on end to organize on a site that large. I just cant wait for it to come! And indeed, sorry about the thead jack. At least it was positive.
  10. Find and Pull the relay or fuse for the DRL then turn on the HL's
  11. I surf FM but I dont like the ways its organized. POTN, has great organization, and is a great place for learning anything, quickly. What about it was annoying to you? Oh incase you didnt know. Midwest Photo Exchange's webpage is MPEX.com I'm in there all the time.
  12. So I typed in that address on google and got this.... http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=316339
  13. Clogged Cat can do it. Hmmm, didnt see there was already so many responses.
  14. For sure, the is just a Canon centered board that it's organized on, but everyone one is welcome. We are just going to share experience, information, outdoor portrait locations, things like that. Then we all go out and shoot together for the day.
  15. Nice! Tim, I think you meant to click the thread right under this one.
  16. I would have do disagree about the lens being tight, they're not. I've shot with both. When I shoot with my 70-200 Im shooting over the 100 mark all day. You have to learn with any lens. As for weight the 70-200 2.8IS is a heavy SOB when you hand hold shots for 3 hours at at time. EDIT: Im currently in the process of putting together a shooting event, for Columbus photographers on another forum, for spring. Havent got a whole lot of people yet maybe just 5 but was going to put something up here as we got closer. These are all Canon guys. I recommend this site to any and all, no matte what they shoot with. www.photography-on-the.net/forum
  17. Here are some samples for both, 85 1.8 http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=140371 100 2.0 http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=226590 Navigate back to the main page and join there, great resource for learning things you've never even thought imaginable.
  18. Yep thats its. Here's the 85 1.8 http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/12182-USA/Canon_2519A003_85mm_f_1_8_USM_Autofocus.html For quality you can't beat Primes.
  19. For sure, the 100 and the 85 are both great choices for fast focusing glass. And if I recall they're right around the same price. If you guys want to take the 70-200 2.8IS for a spin let me know. Hmm, you must have done a ninja edit, because I swear the lower text was not there!
  20. Im sure Tim will cover it with you...but For Rich, a Canon SD780 isnt going to keep up with the speed of a cheer competition in a gym or convention center, with the lighting available. My recommendation like Tims is go for Canon. I will recommend Canon over any other body, for the sole reason of future Lens selection. No manufacturer has the vast lens selection as Canon. Go for what you can afford really. It would appear that you may want to go used with the price range your looking for. And know that a fast lens will help you greatly. Thats when more money comes into play. For shooting indoor, I would recommend a Lens with capabilties of 2.8 and faster. I shoot many cheer competitions, wrestling matches, and basketball with a 2.8 Years ago one lens I wish I hadnt gotten rid of was a Canon 85 1.8 (its a prime so there is no zoom) but its a very quick focusing low light lens. I would highly recommned it to someone stepping into DSLR's and needing a quick lens. Because it gets expensive fast. The only other thing is, stepping into a DSLR and an expensive lens, isnt going to get you all the shots you expect. It takes some practice. Its not a Point and Shoot. Dont get me wrong, you'll get some great ones. But when you're shooting low light, with 2.8 or faster, you also have to deal with a very shallow Depth Of Field. Theres a lot to it. If there's anything that Tim has offer up to you. Throw it in here. One of us will get back to you. And Good Luck!
  21. This is what I would do. Guy buy a truck tip, cut it in half and rivet it back on.
