Hello from MN
« on: March 30, 2022, 05:41:32 PM »
Hi, my name is Caleb and I live in Minneapolis, MN. I've had my Sky for a little around a year now. It's a salvage titled (flood) 07 Redline. I gave it a CAI and muffler delete for now and many more mods planned. I also plan to get a hard top for it someday if I can ever find one close enough to me.

Thankfully, no gremlins for now. All electricals seem to be in good working order aside from a little issue with the brake pedal sensor when I first got it but a new one fixed that issue. Unfortunately though there are bits of surface rust coming up where there shouldn't be any. From what I dug up the flood damage came from Hurricane Sandy so likely salt water got into places it shouldn't have. For that it just needs to be stripped down to nothing and cleaned up but that's future me's problem as I just want to enjoy it as it is for now. And this weekend my set of Enkei M52's from my old Cobalt SS wrapped in fresh Nitto NT555 G2's are going on so I'm looking forward to that!
