roundel painting was a fail. Cant sand the smooth finish so the paint sticks. it peels.

I'm just glad that my girl is nothing like you and she doesn't really care about cars - otherwise, we'd be living in a cardboard box, but with a couple of fully decked out rides LOL

but no, its not that you're not modding fast enough - I just really wanna see what the black calipers will look like

I'm sure my friend will let us use the yard of his body shop, but we need a dry day for that. I'd do it too though and do the exhaust tips while I'm at it.

(sorry for the lil' threadjack there, Brett)
