Has anyone attempted to replace the soft top fabric? I saw a diy on s2k and it says it takes around 10 hours which I believe. After going back and forth I think I'll put in a glass window from either robbins or ez top depending on the price. It seems fairly straight forward, just time consuming.

Unnecessary strain on your liver. Same with most non-injectables and methylated compounds. I'd stick to pro-hormones like 1,4AD, stuff like that. I've ran multiple cycles of AD with very positive results.

Or just get a good, natural test booster like D-Aspartic Acid.

Nah. Well, not yet. Still holding out for one of those, but I did buy the convertible to be a convertible.

Seriously though, I'm up here visiting Philly and the roads suck in this car.

yo boots i just threw on those diffusers no tape and used my own screws cause the one he supplied r gay.

p.s. it will make it easier if u trim the corners off of the back ends of them this way they wont rub up against the mudflap thing, makes it alot easier to align

oh and the second to last body plug kinda gets in the way u can take them off put the diffusers on trim the plugs and pop them back in

anywhere in CA right now is about 4 bucks due to a recent gas hike, but hey... do what you gotta do lol.. frankly 85 cents a gallon for... 60 fills? (i average 250/tank and 15000/year, so approximately 60 fills.) at 10-11 gallons each fill...

that's 8.5$-9.35$ per fill, about 60 times a year for a grand total of less than 600$... lol combined with the fact that I'm away from extreme heat, extreme snow and have a 50-80 year-round temperature with the beach a walks away.. I'll take what I can get. Chicken breast and broccoli ain't currency, but that's the majority of my diet
