Hey, if you're looking for a local car scene check out NEAutoForums.com - You're only 20 minutes from me so I assume you check out the CCSU shows and what not... Maybe I'll see you around Oct 4th...

Got 2 love the 337. Great mods by the way, still trying to figure out if I want the black grill up front or not. Anyway, keep up the awesome work on the car.
