Excellent movie too.
Sticking your dick in a child's mouth is a little more than just misconduct.

Should have gotten them earlier... curbed the hell out of some of some.of the rims a while back. , these probably could have helped... A TON.


And they're done!!!!

I love how Justin embraces his fk ups...
he's like, but they're so cool!
Why would you want to be a dumb square that cares if there's a plastidip run inside his tail lights or curbing on his expensive japanese AUTHENTIC wheels.

Alignments are a good idea!
Once the V settles, I'll align too...I know Jonathan is dying to get his hands on it.

Justin, no doubt...just a car, but you CAN care about keeping it looking new and undamaged without being a turd!
Although I do agree with you about it being cleaner than most anyway.

My buddy Ricky is a track hoooahhh...well, he's always calling me a hardparker cause I like center caps and he says I just rub my car down with baby diapers and take more pictures of it...making fun of me. Just cause I like that doesn't mean it's less cool than what you like!

It's time for new brakes soon.. I think imma just go with the Duralast cmax or whatever the fuck they're called and get a lifetime brake.. Rears are squeaking and I hope it's just the rotors/ pads and shoes and not the caliper seizing


Car will get a nice wash today

I think you'd get a metal on metal drag, not a squeal.
The V squealed one afternoon...some hard stopping and rain and it wall went away

Justin, no doubt, man...def super easy fixes!

Would not be surprised . Probably should put in an order for those sooner rather than later and just replace them all at the same time as those pads.


OEM vs aftermarket gents? I'm leaning OEM for the caliper but after let for pads/shoes/rotors
