New to Fla...
 
Hey everyone.. I'm new to Fla.. Only been here like two weeks.. The only people I know down here are my family.. So.. lol. What is there to do down here? And does anyone know somewhere in West Palm that can install mirrors good for relatively cheap? thanks. :D

SwivelThis May-28th-2003 04:14 PM

Before I moved down, someone hit the passenger side of my car while i was parked and took the mirror with them.. I have M3 mirrors, but no one to put them on.. So my car looks all funky.

SwivelThis May-28th-2003 08:23 PM

..they have the LED blinkers on them and w/ my luck, i'd like.. short out the power to the door or something. one of my friend's was suppose to help me install them before i left, but she kept putting it off, and now here i am.

protege00dogg May-28th-2003 09:10 PM

i have the M3 mirrors with the blinker in them... and i installed them myself and i wish i would have went to someone.. they were a pain in the butt....

SwivelThis May-28th-2003 09:28 PM

how exactly did you do it though? someone told me that i'm going to have to take my doors apart.. :(

YellowMP5 May-28th-2003 10:31 PM

don't know about mirrors, sorry, but i want to tell you about the club i am in here in ft.lauderdale, about an hour south flrom you. we are having a huge meet this friday so if you aren't doing anything why don't you come. foxymazda might come too, right foxy?

SwivelThis May-28th-2003 11:34 PM

hmm..maybe..gotta see wut's going on..i still dont know my ass from my elbow when it comes to getting around..but if my cousin can go, then ill def try and go..but in the mean time..if you see a black '02 missin a passenger side mirror and scratches, w/ jersey plates and sumone who looks confused..that would be mee..lol..my car looks like crap, so even before i came down, ive been tryin to avoid meets..:eek:

YellowMP5 May-29th-2003 12:04 AM

stop avoiding meets. you might actually meet somebody who can help you out or know somebody who might help you out. that's the whole point of a club, right?

mygreenmazda May-29th-2003 11:32 AM

Hey I heard that you guys are coming down here for Hot Import Nights.

SwivelThis May-29th-2003 01:25 PM

back in nj i knew a few people who could help me out... but they were all lazy. down here i have no idea how to get anywhere.. i can just barely manage getting around here.

SwivelThis May-29th-2003 01:30 PM

if you can give me relatively good directions on how to get there, i might be able to manage it.. and hopefully not get lost horribly.

take turnpike or i95 south to i595 west. go west until university dr. make a left (south) on university drive. if you see a classic there is a 99.9% chance they are going to the show. follow him. 2nd and 3rd traffic light is the tower shops on your left. from there give me a call, 954-562-2705

jo, you take i75 south and keep on going east once it turns to i595. make a right onto university (south). towers is on the left. give me, vlad or jay a call to find us.

SwivelThis May-29th-2003 05:03 PM

around what time is the meet at?

YellowMP5 May-29th-2003 05:09 PM

8pm rain or shine. if its raining though, there won't be anybody else there but its ok, we'll go to a bar or fort liquerdale or do something else like movies, gameworks...

SwivelThis May-29th-2003 05:25 PM

i'll try and go, but if it's raining, i might just be better off staying around here. i can't really do much anywhere.. what w/ me being a youngin' and all.. lol:rolleyes:

YellowMP5 May-29th-2003 07:02 PM

YellowMP5 May-29th-2003 07:30 PM

hey, that's great. i have a feeling this will be a HUGE meet since we also have a lot of miami people coming to the meet. rain or shine guys :)

here is the club "website": groups.yahoo.com/group/intenseperformance

btw, nothing wrong with being 17, you'll be our DD ;) j/k
actually, i want to go see "finding nemo" :cool:
it should be pretty funny.

frankieboy9 May-29th-2003 07:37 PM

a dd is the best thing I've seen thus far

SwivelThis May-29th-2003 07:45 PM

lol.. thats just great. finding nemo looks like it'll be good.

SwivelThis May-29th-2003 07:47 PM

depending on what im doing, im usually on military north of hypoluxo.. or somewhere on melaleuca.

frankieboy9 May-29th-2003 07:59 PM

if you want to go tomorrow you can meet me at walmart on hypolux and militaryor you can call me

SwivelThis May-29th-2003 08:03 PM

im not even sure if im going to be able to go tomorrow. somehow i think i'm going to get stuck babysitting my younger siblings or something.. that's pretty much what i've had to do for the past 2days.

frankieboy9 May-29th-2003 08:03 PM

i guess you couldnt call. that was kind of stupid. ill be on line so just look for me there.

YellowMP5 May-29th-2003 08:44 PM

looks like its going to be a clear night

mygreenmazda May-30th-2003 12:22 AM

So YellowMP5 are you going to have a meet for hotimportnights. I heard Foxymazda say that there would be one and I would love to go.

YellowMP5 May-30th-2003 12:27 AM

Is the HIN in south florida or up in orlando? sorry, i am not sure :(

mygreenmazda May-30th-2003 12:44 AM

Orlando
Orange Convention Center same place as last October

YellowMP5 May-30th-2003 12:53 AM

as far as i know we have not talked about going to orlando in the near future at all. i certainly don't plan on going. have to save up some miles for nopi. yeah i know orlando is not far but i put in 100 miles a day and it adds up. if we ever plan a trip, i keep all the boards updated. how about going to nopi with us in september?

mygreenmazda May-30th-2003 12:56 AM

Where is nopi taking place at. I will definitely go and yeah if you decide to have a meet or something just post it up, aight. Thanks

mygreenmazda June-1st-2003 04:12 PM

My bad Foxy I just didnt read right. I would love to go to nopi but that is a very long drive and a lot of miles. Just wondering why isnt anybody going to hot import nights.

mygreenmazda June-1st-2003 05:05 PM

And by the way I sent you a pm at msprotege.com because you posted pics of your car but I didnt know that it was you because you had a different name and oh well. I do like the montegi rims what was the guys problem. They look really good, what a hater.

YellowMP5 June-1st-2003 08:03 PM

sorry i didn't reply sooner.
but i doubt we are gonna have a meet for HIN or even go up to orlando. if you want to have a meet in orlando i suggest you organize it with other central florida people on the board. if it will shape up to be a decent meet, then there is a very good chance of us going up there. there was a meet in orlando last october which i, foxy and another person from the club attended but hardly any people from orlando or tampa showed up and those who did came oh, only about 6 hours late. the drive is not that long but we want to be sure that the meet is going to be decent in order for us to go. if you are interested in going to nopi i suggest you get in touch with foxymazda, she's our main nopi planner. she'll keep you updated about everything, times, hotels, when, where and what. i'll be in contact with atlanta people and hopefully they will plan a meet fro proteges to be held around atlanta after nopi. this way we all can get together. i tried doing the same thing last year but nobody upthere seemed interested. we'll see what happens this year.

YellowMP5 June-1st-2003 11:13 PM

no, you didn't miss the poll. but i know you want it to happen bad and I do too so i figured you might want the job. just trying to split some of the responcibilities of running the club with other members. me and vlad can't do everything ourselves.

i think i talked to ghost323f and he said he is moving down here. its great about the club up there but he didn't mention starting it down here. with all due respect to him i don't think its a good idea. i mean why have a bunch of competing mazda/protege clubs when we all can be in one club and can help each other out. i talked to a guy in charge at rev it up on saturday he gave me a contact at mazda to call and ask for mazda flags, banners, etc. i figured we are gonna hang them around the tent at nopi. may be we can get mazda to pay for some of our expenses.

btw, since you are in charge, as we get closer you are gonna have to make a list of what we all need to buy and bring. coolers, folding chairs, cleaning shit... you know what i mean?

i am going to bed, adios.

mygreenmazda June-1st-2003 11:52 PM

you know how hard is to meet cool mazda owners in Orlando, hard. I've tried to talk to people and well is tough. I know that if I tried to get something together I would probably only get about 4 to 5 pros together. I'm going to pm all owners in Orlando and I will try to get something together for HIN and yeah please keep me updated with NOPI. Thanks
