I've got a 4-door automatic to fix and sell, and a 3/5 coupe to improve and keep. Aero mods come easiest to me. __________________ There is no excuse for a land vehicle to weigh more than its average payload. Last edited by Bicycle Bob; 05-22-2008 at 09:17 PM.. Reason: vague

Glad to see another Metro fan. I'm quite sure you can make a buck on the Metro resale (assuming you were able to buy it at a decent price - apparently that's getting harder). Not surprised to read your interest in aero, given your username. __________________ Project MPGiata!
