Red Sox fan Chris

I am about to start the prepping process on several pieces of my car's interior. All pieces are regular molded ABS plastic. I'm just wanting to change the color of these pieces. They're tan, and I'm changing to a dark granite type color.

Can anyone tell me the steps taken to clean and prep Plastic parts?

And can anyone recommend the specific products needed?

What is the best clear coat I should use to protect the pieces when done?

Please be specific. I'm not looking to do it cheap. I have money. I just spent over $7,000 on my custom stereo install. I can spare a few bucks for paint and such to do it perfect. I don't want anyone else to do it. I want to. I've done everything on this car, no reason to stop now.

Thank you for your input..

OK ladies... What is the most romantic/sweetest thing your man has ever said to you? What made you just quiver and your knees buckle, and create those little butterflies in your stomach? What made you fall in love with him all over again?

Other than using low quality cell phone videos, what do most people use to film/upload there youtube videos. Someone once said, the "Pure digital Flip Camera" I've never really seen this item.

So what do you use, and if you can, add link to one of your YouTube videos so I can see the quality.

I may want to upload some videos of my vacation to Boston coming up shortly.

I'm looking for a few high quality pictures to use as my desktop wallpaper. I'm looking for cool pictures of Fenway Park, home of the Red Sox. I had a few before, but since I've upgraded my laptop's hard drive, I lost them all.

Can anyone tell me where to look? I've tried Flickr, but the pictures don't look that good when applied to my desktop.

Thanks for looking guys.

I have World Tour for PS3, and I really like the play lists on Rockband and RB2. Does anyone know if my drums and such will work on Rockband or do I have to buy the whole Rockband set. I really don't want all these instruments cluttering my living room.

I thought I read somewhere, Sony was offering a download update through the PS3.

Any thoughts.....

I'm wanting to upgrade to a 1TB internal drive in my Rocketfish external case, to hold all my movie and music files. But I don't know the difference between SATA and SATA2. I've seen them both out there. I beleive I have a SATA drive in the case now. Will a SATA2 drive work the same way???

Does anyone know where I can get any 5L mini Kegs other than Heineken kegs? I've searched and found a few diff. ones, but mainly German imported beers. Are there any American beers, like bud light, miller light or others available in 5L kegs?

Even beers like Blue Moon, or Yeungling, or Sam Adams would be great. I bought a mini kegerator for my bar, but I don't like Heineken all that much....

I'm a bartender at a casual bar and grill. By casual i mean burgers and beer. But we do take pride in food. everything is made from scratch every morning. I say this so you don't think it some lame hole in the wall bar. Think Outback, but just burgers and beer. It's actually a semi Jimmy Buffet owned chain. Anyway...

More often than it should, some customers feel the need to not tip after there meal. I can't explain why. I can explain however it is not my service or the lack there of. I am what you call a flair bartender, meaning I do tricks and entertain while i make drinks, by flipping bottles, doing magic tricks, jokes, etc. All tools used to increase sales, check average, and most importantly, tips. So safe to say, I KNOW how to make money from just about anyone.

So what makes it ok for someone to completely enjoy their meal and drinks, and then blatantly slap me in the face by not leaving a tip. So if this happens, is it ok for me to say something, and maybe educate them, or just brush it off.? And if I do speak up, what do I say?

I'm looking to upgrade a PC I purchased for my GF for Christmas. I really just want to upgrade the Hard Drive. It has a 30G internal Drive now. It is an IDE ATA hard drive, samsung I believe.

Does anyone know how big of a drive I can upgrade to. I plan on upgrading the chip and RAM also. I already know which of those to get (I think). I ordered an Athlon XP 2400 Socket A 2ghz chip and 2 x 512 DDR266 RAM chips.

So if you can tell me the biggest hard drive I can get, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Chris

Ok. So I'm currently designing my ultimate dream sound system. I'm building what I feel will be the "ultimate listening machine"

And I haven't decided on a subwoofer set up yet.

Here's what I have in the garage so far...

- An Alpine CDA-9815 (old school, great deck,) have an IDA-x100 on the way

- An Alpine DVA-5205, Navi 851A, and 3 Alpine M770 monitors (completes the video portion..Non important)

- From the deck... Alpine's Imprint EQ package

- 2 x JL Audio 300/2 and 1 x JL Audio 500/1

One 300/2 will power a pair of ZR 800 8" mid-bass and the other, a set of ZR 600 6.5 components with an added pair of ZR tweeters all in the front doors, basically

The 500/1 is for the Sub that I can't decide on.

SO my question is... Based on this setup, what sub will compliment the system. I'm looking for something that will "get low"

I don't like extreme bass. This is an SQ sound system. I'm thinking something in the 15" range. Maybe an older 15w3.

any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance
