how do you guys manage your mod bugs in transitional periods "between" cars?
It's the whole circle of life unfolding before your eyes. By feeding the cats, they no longer attack the birds, which in turn fill the birdhouses with song and joy.
I think the bird above really would have liked that birdhouse since both are/were the same colors. I can't be everywhere.

I'm selling my car, but I'm going nuts, because every time I even pass by it I wanna mod something. I bought shift knob the other day, but that only made it worse. I look at the wheels and think "RIMS!!!", I look at the trunk and think "Finisher!Spoiler!Roof Spoiler!" I'm craving here, and I know there's no sense in modding this car, since I'm selling it anyway, so I'm offering a hand to anyone in my area who might need help on some DIYs, or smth! ANYTHING to keep me occupied, before I pull the trigger on some set of wheels in the classifieds, or smth... help how do you guys manage your mod bugs in transitional periods "between" cars?
I ain't kiddin' either - PM me if you need help with smth - if I'm not working, I'll be glad to help.

I build birdhouses for elderly shut-ins or drive around feeding feral cats. It's very rewarding.
