I can only half laugh at that. He has a high lift rear spoiler and lambo style vertical lift doors.
It's not super tacky 😛
And it become no more very shortly after. Imagine if that was allowed to continue?
Finished the procharger on the Challenger. After I got the tune downloaded, ran it, checked for leaks, topped everything off. Went inside, told the wife WHOO HOOO it runs! She says, can I hear it? I say sure! (Now other than a bit of whine at idle, there isn't anything too hear, supercharger's got helical gears and the exhaust has not been changed yet.) I fire it up and blip the throttle, she has the look of utter disappointment mixed with does he know he just spent $6500, and it sounds exactly the same written on her face. I shut it off and start laughing. I told her to relax and come back in an hour or too, it'll all be better when I install the big *ss box of exhaust she almost tripped over on the way to the garage.
Take 8
Shoot the paint!
Base and clear went on this morning. It was HOT. 83 when i got to the shop at 95 when I got done. I have AC but it wasn't doing much, just keeping the humidity out.
I too
I have the base and clear lines that I might try to sand out, overall it looks good though.

Holy hell. The kitchen faucet had a drip and so was the outside hose bib, so I decided to play Luigi and fix them. I'm getting hard of hearing and couldn't give 2 sh*ts about the faucet. But, the outside hose bib bothered the hell out of me, and the wife was bitching about the sink because she works from home 2 day a week- in the kitchen. So, off to Home Depot I go. I didn't realize how many different goddamn Moen cartridges there are. Fahk. A salesperson was actually helpful for a change, and told me how simple it was to pull the cartridge to see the part number. Here we go. I got the old one apart after nearly admitting defeat, and throwing in the towel to the Google machine. Oh, there's a special tool that comes with the new cartridge. Yeah, the one that I don't know the ****ing part number for! Ok, make said special tool.
Instructions say to move it back and forth a 1/4 turn each way. WTF? Finally got it freed up and removed. No, it doesn't unscrew; the special took just breaks it loose. Get the cartridge out, try to put it back together, and it gets stuck 2/3 of the way in. Fvck! I tried every trick in my bag, and couldn't get it out. Alright, regroup. I know what the part number is now; I'm good. Back to home depot, get a cartridge, and, just in case, a new faucet- it is 5p on a Sunday. Getting straight medieval on a slide hammer got it out. Drop the new cartridge in, and........ same ****ing thing!!!!!!!
Out with the old, in with the new
So far, the hose bib isn't dripping anymore, and hopefully the wife will quit bitching......about the drip, anyway.

Invested time in my legacy.
I love how ugly she makes me look.
