Default Couple of things...been a while since I've been on!

Morning Guys!

I got a couple of things, and since this is my home part of the forum, I'd thought I'd post it here.

1. Carpet - I've been doing a little research to completely replace the interior floor in my 97 GT and thought I could get it for around $100, but after looking on the net I've seen 150 as the norm. Any good ideas? Thought I saw something in a 5.0 mag for $119 but can't seem to find it anymore.

2. Air vent's - the plastic peace you adjust to control air flow direction into the interior...I went to the dealer and he said they are 38 a piece I was like wow. I need all 4. Dealer only item?

3. Speaker covers for rear - Dealer only as well? They are 25 a piece at the dealer.

4. Front seats - My driver one is very bad, and the passenger is a little better. I got leather. Anyone know a place that sells the original OEM seats or found ones they really liked? I've looked at a lot of the racing seats, and I wasn't a big fan.

Last thing. Looking for any UTI graduates that can offer their opinions about the school. I have read on alot of forum's from other UTI grad's that the school was not a good option for them, especially for the 26k price tag. I was looking to get into collision repair, and alot of the shops around here wont hire a hand unless they have some sort of experience.

Appreciate it guys! By the way I've moved to Houston, TX (Spring to be exact) and if anyone is around the area lemme know!

My gf's cousin attended UTI for awhile. He dropped out. Said it was the biggest waste of time. The people that were teaching apparently were not that pleasant/bright, and the curriculum was a joke.
Wyotech is supposed to be a Class A operation though.. Might want to look into that.

Houston here. Well what you want to look at is the new hennessy school (Yes hennessy as in the people who make the hennessy viper) that they opened. You are suppose to learn how to add turbos, superchargers, nitrous, and be able to tune in in the first few months. Its some where in houston.
