$36 bucks buy you a brand new one, otherwise they're relatively easy to remove yourself

maybe paint the hub caps silver, the girls will think you have a rust bucket.

my friend has a 97 and his lower radiator support is rusted up really bad... explain that ...

I'm currently running a Core 2 Duo 6300 OC'ed to 2.8GHz stock voltages across the board! That gives me 1600 mhz FSB

My eVGA 7900 GTO can handle all current games just fine

I was looking under my front-end yersterday, and i noticed that there's a 1 inch hole in my rad-support. Man, it's really deteriorating. I think i'm gonna have to change it before winter comes. I also keep hitting the darn thing when i'm parking @ my train station.
