    86 GP project

    They all pop outside, but the Acura color was a letdown, and it’s the one I was leaning too originally. I didn’t snap any pics. Here’s a pic for reference on the difference of inside vs sun on something that pops

    MALIBU I’m about to purchase the best battery 🪫 in the world

    I think optima sold at some point, and their quality went down. I got 8 years out of my old yellow top in my daily.

    The wagon is the car I was referring to. Should have been more specific.
