Shows a pic of two Nissan fork-lifts and says, "Still more JDM" at the top and at the bottom, "Then your Civic".

Sometimes a little proof-reading goes a long way.

I'm a grammar Nazi sometimes.

Me too. It's still amusing though.

I missed that post about the map lights. Must be nice! I don't know if I want to go as far as replacing mine, because I already spent the money on these. We'll see, I need to try my "tint" idea first.

The glow isn't bad, it's not like it lights up anything - the amber/orange effect LED up there still illuminates the gearshift, etc. like it did before.

It's just that I can see the map lights glowing.

nice!

how 'cold' does it get there in your area in the winter time?

yah, the maplight 'mod' turned out real good for me so im

would the tint show through the lens? i first thought i'd just get a white illuminating piaa wedge, but then saw that the bulb was blue. that blue would show through the clear lens.

yes this will be our first kid

you're using real wood too instead of that laminated stuff so that's even better, imo.

sounds :exciting: with your first kid. lots of fun times ahead.

I absolutley hate those old fashioned pictures with made up quotes. Some of them have atrocious english, exactly what you guys are talking about. jeez. it's like:HEY! look at me, I'm either lazy or uneducated and I don't mind everybody knowing it! HA!

This sounds much like Kenchan's grammar.

That's exactly what I was thinking, I am probably also going to make a bunch of other things now that the bench turned out good

I hate the cheap fake wood everything is made of now a days

Yes both my wife and I are very excited

to have our first kid, everything is falling into place we wanted to move in to the new house and start trying so looks like things are working out and I couldn't be happier

Nothing ruins a potentially good meme or someecard more than bad writing.

np, msbc.

i have templates of info in my head that i just copy/paste.

if you plan on doing detailing as a hobby, those random orbitals are very handy tools. especially for doing your scuffs, the 3" orbital would be perfect... not that you can't do it by hand. just faster.

LMBmikeZ · 05-20-2013, 11:28 AM

a good RO polisher will pay for itself just in the time it saves you!

I have both rotary and RO and I use my RO all the time, rotary is only for the heavy stuff or if doing a full out 3 stage polish

It depends, it can get down to the mid-high 30's. Usually sustains around low 40's-50's.

Which I know isn't cold to most, but when the prior week it was 85, then all of the sudden it's 50, your body goes into shock.

That and the Summer heat thins out your blood, a lot.

As for the map light, if I put it on the inside, it may darken it a little bit, but if I put it on the outside it may blend the map lights into the plastic housing a bit - could look pretty neat.

THat RO may end up on a list for hubby (for me from hubby!)

LMBmikeZ · 05-20-2013, 11:33 AM

and with RO you don't have to worry so much about damaging the clear coat on your paint you won't burn through inless you held it in one spot for a LONG LONG TIME!
