i shipped one in a black home depot crate. The ones with the yellow lids. I had to remove the tube from the diff to make it all fit.

 

I shipped a front third in one of the 5 or 7 gal buckets

 

And I have the wrong offset rotors

What's another 45 min detour to get parts

 

Yuck

 

So my buddy who does wraps ordered some gloss black and some anodized blue. We're using this boring time in human history to wrap the IS300 real soon.

Gonna be blue on panels, but the skirts (bumper skirts and side skirts) will be gloss black as will the roof and door handles. Gonna be a good look and make it easier to put on the lower body kit pieces.

Your snack is ready

My orange baboon tarantula went through a molt and I'm surprised how completely intact it is





If you're curious about this specific species, watch this -

An old world with a vicious attitude and nasty bite that'll leave you in pain and cramps for over a week unless you're allergic

 

Where are you located again? Where in AZ?

 

He's shipping his diffs to Ken (ZUK) who lives in Chandler. I think he's in Arkansas, you know the state you're most likely to forget when naming all the states

 

Cool, I was just thinking maybe a TW Express might be an option.

 

Thanks but I prefer mine whole

I get accused of being in Arizona when someone sees my AR address.

 

Ken (ZUK) has a whole page to provide instructions for packing and shipping 3rds. He suggested that I some some expandable foam in a pouch the fills up around the bottom of member.

That color will be hawt on the IS

 

I followed his instructions for shipping a rear third without issues

Then ECGS sent it back double boxed with some shredded cardboard packing and it arrived having poked/worn though most sides of the box. Had to have them ship parts for the ARB again because the little baggie was tossed in and got crushed and all the pieces fell out of the holes in the side of the box

 

Wow.. Damn.

 

Today is probably not a good day to watch the movie Contagion with the wife. She's never seen it.

 

Wait up for me G. I'll be there in like 9 hours
