Konig: anything that gets pics of your car with April is probably going to go over pretty well with this crowd.

I must confess I somewhat slacked on the X-mas gift for my car this year.
To my defense, for my 8's birthday in September I did get him Racing Beat headers and new endlinks!


The only thing I've installed on my car since then are all new leds. Can you tell which car is mine?!

The car got washed today for the 1st time in 3 or 4 weeks. Does that count as a gift?
