When are you doing it? I am helping a buddy move on Friday night. But depending on when you are going to do it, I could try and help out. What are you upgrading to? Are you swapping the struts and springs whole? If so it would be a pretty quick job.

SS springs and struts together. I'll be off 87th st east of k7.. At my boss's house. He has some sweet muscle cars you might enjoy checking out also! I'll post when we will be doing the job.

Anyone know a quality paint place within the Wichita area?
Garys Customs from here @ Camaro5 painted a side skirt for me and Im sorry to say it is very sub par quality. I don't see how someone considered as a professional painter could do so horrible. To say the least... I am not a happy camper what so ever....

From what I have read he has a great reputation, may just be a matter of letting him know, I know a guy here in Topeka, but I bet Gary is better

Sorry to see it has been a pain with these parts... that gets irritating.

I have been having All Angles on West St. do all my paint work lately... it has all went flawlessly. They even put a new quarter panel on the wife's CR-V and it looks amazing. They are pretty reasonably priced for a quality shop. Talk to Shane there, he always treats me real good.

Ugh... called and talked to Shane... he had actually just recently painted the same kind of side skirts for someone in town... he said because it is already painted I'm looking at $100 automatically because of the $50/hr shop rate. Could be up to about $250 to correct it depending how bad it is.

I would think it would be towards the lower end of that. The problems don't look major, it should just be in the paint. I had it in my head that it would be somewhere around $200.

We have a meeting each month for Heartland Camaros club, 2nd saturday of every month (unless weather or event conflicts). We have several car shows planned and still being planned. Just recently had our monthly meeting with a mildly short cruise and some minature golf afterwards
