Pam, Lance, Bill. Paul, Paul..

Good meeting ya'll!  Had a great Sat at Coronado, a great event with a little bit of everything and for everyone!

Well, I don't want to go to just any place out of the yellow pages for my windshield replacement... Already heard some crazy stories about showing up with the wrong one and only notice it after the 1st one was out..  leaking.. scatching the hood..

Wheelsamerica..  I'll check them out, thanks! Seems like an LA trip is in the order!

John, yeah, that would be great!  Not that familiar with the newer Vipers so it would be interesting to talk about the differences!  (Mine is a b/w 96 GTS..)

Spoke with Unitrax Drivetrain Inc and think that will be the place for my diff!  Great guys, very knowledgable, specializing in diff and not too far from San Diego.

So, 1 of 4 down..  Now I need some advice on new windshield, refurbish BBS rims and repair sills.. 

Exactly the info I'm looking for (for the diff)!

A drive to Orange County to have Unitrax Drivetrain Inc do the work, if they are the best, is well worth it!

Keep em' coming, looking for the top-notch vendors around San Diego (and I should say Los Angeles too)

Thank you Dan!

Randy, are you joining us at the Coronado Speed Festival?  Would be great to actually look at the work done while discussing it?

Anyone: Other options for the stuff outside Randy's scope?

[reputable vendors around San Diego]

Hope I post in the right thread...

For a 96 GTS: Would like to have the following done by reputable vendors around San Diego.
I don't want to contact a vendor in yellow pages, only to hear that "Vipers are their specialty!!" even though they never worked on one...

- Replace windshield (have a small crack in it...)  Don't need some .... to scratch my ride while mounting some crappy windshield that later will leak...

- Refurbish BBS LM rims.  They are polished and have a something similar to clear coat on them.  Looks NICE but two has some slight curb rash.   I would like to have them stripped, worked, polished and recoated with the same clear coat. Same here, want a shop that sets quality over quantity, must come out perfect!

- Purchase and installation of 3.55 gears. The installation is what's critical so as the other two to-dos, I really want it to be done in a shop that has done tons of diff installs and takes pride in doing it right!

- Aluminum sills: Have two small bubbles in the paint.  Some say from the heat, some say from corrosion because water gets trapped in the insulation plus the prime wasn't good to start with..  I Would like to do it right and take them off, tig-weld two small areas closed, sand, prime and re-paint to perfectly match
Most of us know what these sills cost... So there can't be any surprised here; the person must have done this 1,00 time before and have as many happy customers!

Any help appreciated!

Count me in!!

Just joined the SoCal club, Live in San Diego, owner of a b/w 96 GTS (see attached pic)

Hope to see you all at the CSF!
