How well does your spouse (or gf/bf) know your car?
 

I just swapped the AeroJacket wing to a duckbill yesterday. I did not tell her about the swap. Mind you, she see's the car every single day each time she walks in the garage. She walks in today and the first words out of her was "What is AeroJacket?" I was thinking I was busted and will have to explain my$elf. This is what she sees everyday before the swap.

Until today......



I just told her I've had it all along and waited this time to put it on.

So....how well do they know your car. Not well enough.

LMAOOOOOOO!!!

And thank you for changing the wing. I have always hated that wing/I hate any spoiler that isn't the stock one or one that covers the flat part of the trunk lid

Ha Ha. "What is AeroJacket?"

"AeroJacket is what happened to the money I saved for the romantic vacation I was going to take you on. Hope you enjoy your license plate frame.":stirthepot:

You are welcome Andrew. I really appreciate your raw honesty. After a year with that wing, the post just got to me. If they had an Al bracket, then it would probably be better. So far so good.

lol my ex gf didn't like my car at all she said I should have bought a new civic


nah

Think about it, she's jealous. It attracts competition. The Civic is safe.

Going to do Amuse soon, and wrap the car white at the same time. I expect the only thing she will notice is the change of color from black to white, but as far as money spent on bumpers = no one will be aware :D

I think its fair that someone who doesn't share the same hobby (or obsession) not have the same eye for detail that the enthusiast does.

I had an ex GF that was into shoes. (Lots of shoes) So despite the fact that she had an entire closet full of foot wear, I do not remember anything specific (ie length of the heel, whether or not they had open toes, or even what color they were) despite the fact that I lived with her for years and saw her wearing them every day.

For some reason the only thing I actually paid attention to were the FMBs.:icon17:

So the FMB stayed during the course of the activity I presume.

I'm not allowed to (significantly) mod my Z since I sent thousands building my previous Mustang... That's why I went with the Nismo, since IMO it already looks good and doesn't really need anything. So far I've done tint. I'm going to be making a shift knob too (I've got access to a lathe) since I hate the stocker and don't feel like shelling out $180. That plus a tasteful front tow hook should keep my happy for a while. In the distant future when my Z becomes relegated to toy status, maybe I'll add forced induction.:rock:

Eww. I can see why she's your ex.:icon18: Who buys a new Civic? If you're going to buy a budget box, why the hell would you waste money buying it new?:rolleyes:

My wife knows what color my car is.

:icon18:

:tiphat:

My wife knows how much money is spent on the car (she's a damn CPA). She doesn't care about mods except how they affect the budget :icon17:

She would recognize major changes, though. It was her DD for over a year.
