    I need some advice fast - I put brand new Eradispeed rotors on a few months back behind my HRE 547R's. Okay, I know they aren't race rotors, but they are beautiful, prolly a couple hundred miles on them. I put the car away in the garage (not even after a wash) about a month ago. It's just...

    With help from Jon B, a sponge and dish detergent...

    I posted awhile ago about re-painting the Gen. 1 'fuzzy' gray interior. I wanted to re-paint my triangular door surround with that odd, rubber paint. It is impossible to find, and my door surround was a mess, scraped, discolored, etc. Jon B located a matching surround, and also sent me two...

    Anyone replace or come up with a nice looking Gen. 1 door handle?

    I can't stand the ugly, cheap plastic door handle. I have nice handle surrounds, but the actual handle is awful - I am ashamed of it actually. Anyone ever replace it, put an alum. cover or slip on it? Any thoughts? Dave.

    Cool reaction from a local kid in parking lot

    My car is back with those incredible 547 R's all the way around, extensive brake work, and many details, but I still have some hood damage which is the most insane part about fixing a Viper, and I am still waiting to rectify this. ANYWAY, I could not resist taking the imperfect, black, shiny...
