Put me to sleep? But I'm perfectly healthy! Isn't euthanasia illegal anyway?

Just cut the carpet in an x and put the feet through the hole...then cut around the post after with a razor knife. Most important thing is to seal and rustproof the floor

Are you installing one in yours?

Thanks Dannobre & Rawrx8

Eric (local fabricating friend) and I custom built one almost just like the autopower race roll bar, except everything is welded together, even the rear supports. I was just curious of how people got them in with the carpet. I have been painting it and the silver trim pieces that run the length of the center console the same color of the car, titanium gray. I just need to do the clear coat today.

Snow day in washington state!
This is what happens here in Washington State with only 2 to 3 inches of snow!! Went you go to fast!!!
Thats why, went it starter snowing on the way home, other driver were pass by me like if I was stop, then yet again I was going 15 to 25 mph on my Rx8 Gt that has high performance summer tires Bridgestone So-2 and there almost bold with no tred. I don't see why i need new one went i leave 2 miles down the street. Anyway I had a very hard time getting out of the parking lot, sense I could not get traction to go, but after I got to the main street I had a littler bit of traction on, to make it home.

I just wish other people new how to drive in this. They think that just because their car wood get up to speed fast, there be able to stop on the go

Anyway just my 2cent, please drive safe!!!

Yeah, the miaterz sure is "fun" to drive in this weather... but the biggest problem has been getting into my car! Lol doors were frozen shut this morning. I had to fight the passenger side open and climb thru, then bash the drivers side open from the inside. Then, what do ya know, drivers door wouldn't latch shut do I drive to work with the door flapping. I bet anything my water proof seals are fucked now... I guess I'll find out on Thursday!

Saturday should work great, even though I work Sundays. Grab some then hit the ave?

Here is a picture of the backyard yesterday a few minutes after the snow started. Unfortunately it did not take long for the snow to melt so no snow ball fights with the kids.

So my wife almost got kill today coming home. I think she learn her lesson today, that it does not matter what kind of car you have or tire, if there is ice on the road you will lose traction and don't use the crose control, that was her mistake. she figure if she put the car at a set speed it wood be ok!!
