juss an update:
i still dont have my car back from the shop which is a damn shame

but anyways juss had a few questions/opinions/advice to ask. So my contract for the military is about to end and getting all my stuff ready to leave and what not. Im stationed in VA but live across the nation (CA ) Now im contemplating whether to have my car shipped home or drive all the way home? Mind you the drive is 39hrs and with the shipping itll take a couples days to reach my house if i juss flew home. Im really leaning forward to juss driving it home but at the same time dont wanna use all the mileage. so what do you guys think i should do?

oh n one more thing, im planning on getting new rims once im home but cant decide on which ones: Rota Grids, BBS LM's or RPF1

Thanks
