Sorry it took me so long to get to this post, it was a busy weekend.

Paul did a friggin awesome job, I tried to repair this issue last spring and I was not able to get anywhere near this result even though my hands were cramped up worse than I care them to ever be again.

:tup: :tup: :tup:

too bad its all dirty and nasty again already, and with a few scuff marks from autocross yesterday :nono:

wow, that is totally what it is… I have been trying to figure out where I keep getting this crap from. My work is essentially surrounded by train tracks.
