      i'm think it will be @ $100 for my kit, then the rest of the parts could be had for $50-300 depending on how you look and what new parts you want.. ($50 being you reuse everything from a u pullit yard, $300 includes new disks, pads and bearings etc)

      thats for another topic at another time though.

      Sounds good, I want to do it mostly for cosmetic reasons, I have 17' 6spoke wheels and u can see very clear inside the wheel, the front looks cool cose the disc, the rear looks weak with the drums, plus I hate to work on drums. keep us posted on the progress...

      I am a stationary engineer in Tulsa, and have been doing this for 3 years (think HVAC on a huge scale, we operate hydronic heating and chiller systems, boilers) I also repair package terminal A/C units and water sourch heat pumps and generally do mechanical repair work on related systems, and anything else that I might be asked to do. I bought my '06 Aveo in August after finding it at a regional Chevrolet dealer on Craigslist. I've probably owned 40 cars over my lifetime...who knew that a little red Daewoo hatchback would end up becoming my favorite after only 2 months?

      Thanks NYChevoo. Yea I have to wash it before I'll even consider taking any pics lol. I'm just searching around trying to get ideas on what to do first...I think the first thing is changing out the green dashboard lights to a more pleasing color

      I cant wait to be finished with school. I havent really had a full day off in the past three years. (the few days that I don't have classes or work I'm catching up on housework. Damn laundry and dishes, and poor neglected xbox)
