    Ok, So I've finally gotten my car back from the body shop (Raymond's AutoBody) and it looks great! I'll be posting pictures tonight. I defiantly recommend that anyone needing body work goes there, ask for Rick (Actually got the car a 2 weeks ago).

    What I'm wondering is, if someone who lives around Mpls, or Forest Lake, who really know a lot about cars and WRX's in general would be willing to take some time to look my car over. I'll easily admit that I don't know a lot about cars/WRX's. But, I'm willing and trying to learn as much as I can. Its just harder when you don't have a bunch of car friends to disuse these things with.

    I had bought my car a few months ago with a lot of after market part/engine work done to it and just have some simple questions that I would need someone to show me on the car. Want to make sure I'm treating the car good and such.

    If someone is willing, I'll more then be willing ta buy you a steak meal for your time... lol

    I've had work done at Raymond's also, they do excellent work. You notice alot of high-end cars in their lot.
    As far as a Suby resource, Nathan who owns the Meineke shop in Shakopee has been a good resource for me.
    I would offer my services, but I'm down in Apple Valley and do not have as much Suby knowledge as some of the experts on this board.

    Nathan (WRXBoy2003) is a member here and a good guy who helped me not only with some shop time, but also alot of free advice on what could work for my XT.
    I'm a newbie to this board also, I mainly drove Saabs in the past. But I found that there is some incredibly knowledgeable resources on this board who are more than willing to help, steak dinner or no steak dinner. :biggrin:

    Hey...

    depending on what you need looked at you are welcome to pm me and set a time to bring it down to my shop and I can go over it with you.... (probably free)

    we can put it on a lift and you can get a top to bottom going over (Now Ray thats usually just for YOU)....

    ask anyone here... I am not out to take your money, but if I have to do more than basic stuff you pay ;) (after all I have a lot invested to be able to do that)
