Ah, I thought I remember reading somewhere you had a B6 (stlvw maybe?). Any suggestions on a local source? I try Modern Imports once a month or so, they never have it.

So, time for me to rant... I freaking hate highschool drivers. I was riding home from school and got rear ended by some morom while I was slowing for a stop light. I was going ~10, he was going ~30. He says, "OMG, I was totaly just not paying atention, my bad." Now my almost brand new(1950 mi) BMW is wrecked, My $600 pipe is toast, the rear tire, lugage rack, a rear turn signal and the plate bracket.That right there is over a grand, and it hasnt even gone in to Gateway to be inspected, so it could be worse. Hooray for insurance! Luckily I have been riding since I was 5 so I have an idea how to handle one, I didnt lay it over, the rear wheel came about 2 feet off the ground but I kept control. My back, shoulders, neck and head are freaking killing me. --end rant.
