    lowest brake dust pad

    I found out pep boys is dropping their hawk pad line an have them on clearance. too bad the closest one is an hour away, i could get front an rear for under $70. I'd have to drive there, order an pay for them, go back in 3 days to pick them up.

    Stock jack on a lowerd car?

    my 97 cobra didn't have a jack or spare when i bought it. I have to drive up on 2x6"s to fit a floor jack under the body. A 17" spare is so expensive I think I'm going to get a regular rim/tire since I will only carry it when I'm going on longer trips.

    Painting stock anthracite bullitts...

    I have some knock off cobras, the chrome is pitting and starting to peel. I was thinking of trying to pain them, but not if you have to sand blast all the chrome. I wonder if the process is the same to paint over chrome?
