Hi everyone, need some advice on stuff in the Portland Area

AfroAssassin · 02-26-2003, 03:09 PM

I've just now got some free time to finally sit down and consider modifying my WRX, first I have a little bit of body work to take care of, can anyone recommend a good, fairly cheap bodyshop in the area that will loan me a car while they work on mine?

Also, I have a few modifications i want to take care of I bought a while back but haven't had time to install. I dont know all that much about the WRX and performing mods on cars, so I was wondering if there's anyone out there really good at this stuff who can point me to or even help me with the projects I want done. I'd take them to a shop, but I want the satisfaction of learning how to do these things on my own.

Also, I'm debating buying some Rota Subzeros, my WRX is silver, any suggestions on which color looks the best?

Thanks for the time!

-Aaron

If you haven't gotten on to the PDXWRX mail list, I'd suggest to sign on to it. http://www.wrxworld.com/ There is always install days and now dyno days. It's a great group and everyone seems to know the answers to most all questions.

Sounds good. I've got a couple go gauges I need to mount, and a PE1818 that's just gathering dust in my closet. It'd be nice to have somewhere to go to hang out with other scooby fans since I dont have the space/time/tools to work on my car in my small apartment downtown.

I like and use the royal black sub-zeros... but gold or bronze would look good with silver too.

I really like steel grey (or anthracite or something similar) on a silver car. I've got steel grey battles.

Ditto. I think one of the best-looking silver sedans (with anthracite wheels) I've seen was OsakaGangsta's silver v5/6 replica gc8 with P1s.

I think Dan was putting his car back to mostly stock. His V6 wing is now on my car

My car is also silver with anthracite P1s
