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?!
