Default I love my car but damn it. I hate spending money.

Well I finally did it. I bought some appearance mods and some things I needed to replace on the car. I have a cracked wiper cowl, and bad o2 sensors that alone was over $290 just in that.

I also just send in an order to AM.com for some things. But you all will have to wait till the car is done in a month or so. I can say painting will be involved.

What? Dustin, you bought mods that aren't 'go' mods? For shame, for shame! I can't wait to see how this turns out.

You should definitely tell me, I'm the one that hooked you up with the code!!!! lol

Trust, me.. I'm right there with you when it comes to spending money.. I thought that I was completely done for a while then last night I ran across something that I couldn't resist on SVTP and sent the money to the guy this morning... Damn it.

Haha man, I have a clogged wiper fluid line. But to get it cleared, I think I have to remove the cowl. I'm so afraid of breaking it, I'm just leaving it be.

Dammit. I wish i could just get a day or 2 to wash and detail mine. Fcking work, or weather is against either one lately, I'm thinking about going to the new lazer/ soft cloth car wash up the road. 10 bucks for either for the premium thing. Just not comfortable with all the stuff it sprays on a car. I really need to wax her, but I need a nice day or 2.

My next dress up I think will be a Mach 1 rear black out panel, and/or grile delete..
then lower springs.

Not so sure about that bro. we ain't used to having this cold *** weather and it may have lowerd your immunity a bit.

I got fcking pnemonia last month for the 1st time in my life. I will swear it's from going outside into freezing temps from either the warm house or from my work. Cold air just over whelmed me. I know smoking didn't help, but dam I got sick as dog in hurry. I thought I was gonna fcking die..
