Re: Dent Day
I have one. I would be interested in participating. It has the paint off as well. I have some touch up paint from Baron but have never worked on it.

Ha, I think that mug likes you more than me. Sorry for rushing out, my wife was eager for me to return home. Can I pick it up at the next garage day?

Re: Anyone up for a garage day? July 2014
wow, great response. Yes the 19th of July would work. MiniDave has a much better set up than me. (if your still offering Dave). I think it would be best to have it there as I lack tools and the lift. I know there is a lot of opinion on which brake fluid to use, any specific recommendations. MiniMax

Anyone up for a garage day? July 19th, 2014
I'm in need of a brake fluid flush. I've never done one before but it looks pretty straightforward. I'll volunteer my garage (worked out great last time) if no one else can do it. I'm thinking some time later this month. Let me know if anyone else want to join or help out.

Re: April Garage Day
What a beautiful day. Thanks to everyone that stopped by to help me with my brakes. They were mushy when I first went out, but feel great after I bedded them. We talked about having a detailing day sometime soon. I would volunteer for that as well if people are interested.

I need to do my front and rear brakes and maybe an oil change. (someone can spill oil on my driveway for a change). I was thinking about 4/12/14 at 9:00...

Re: Custom KC mini decals
I like this one as well. I may see if I can turn it into a decal. I think I can copy it over. I've never had one of my posts see this much interest. I'll try to bring some of the decals to the next garage day (do we have one planned anytime soon?)

I may be able to make something like that. Do you know what font it is in? I have a machine that can cut vinyl (its my wife's craft cutter). I'll see what I can do.

I bought my wife a Silhouette Cameo craft cutter for her cake making but I have been having some fun with making vinyl stickers for my clubby. I thought it would be great to have our KC club with custom decals. I made a very simple one (see pics below) but would like to get ideas from the group. I c...

I just had a very similar situation and Baron found a crack in my thermostat housing. $460 later, its all fixed. Good thing I have the extended warranty.

I have not measured the rotors (I can feel a lip and I have 60,000 miles on the rotors) but I'm not sure if I should change both front and ba...

I got my new plugs in the mail and they need a specific socket to place them. Dave, I'm assuming you have the necessary tools. Please let me know if you don't and I will purchase that as well.

I have been scouring the internet (and this forum as well) and have found all kinds of possibilities but no definitive answer. Interestingly, this CEL came on last...
