If you do the 1.9 modified rockers don't forget a stronger set of springs so when you get the car tuned and make use of the higher shift points from the rockers you can skip the valve float

The roof rails look great!

Thanks! I read it and it makes much more sense to me now.

I also found another set of them that are on my friend's car...If I take them off will it ruin anything on his car or will I have to buy new strips for in there or anything? -Sorry a bit off topic.

He said I could just have them because he hates his grand prix..not sure why. But I have red ones on my car, I guess since he doesn't like his car I can give him mine, but his car is black..lol I will ask though.

Thanks!
