Good Morning everyone. Hope you all have a nice Wed.

Sorry to hear about everyone's knob issues. ( )

I always heard just covering it would do the trick, I guess not. Is it the actual temps inside the car that are heating it up then?

Good morning and happy humpday to all my Z buddies.

BTW: I am having no knob problems/issues, but the day is young.

The News reported no injuries were sustained, which is quite remarkmable...but still, I hope those folks are ok.

And good morning.
damn.... saw vid of tractor trailers flying in the air like 30gallon trash cans on a windy trash day.

Good Morning Everyone!!!

I am at my mechanic's place at working on the spacers and spoiler……

Mr.kenchan… seems the allergy season comes a bit earlier than usual, I bet it's because of the warm winter/early-spring. Hope you'll get better…

Young people nowadays…… I agree to most of you, a lot of them don't give a damn on how to get things done properly… looks like a 'C'or 55% is considered an 'A' in their standard………

Speaking of alcohol…… last time I had was…… last night it feels nice to have some cold drinks after tennis

Sorry to hear 'palm got burnt by hot-knob'… that's what I fear and that's why I go for leather……

Hope Everyone is having a Great Day!!!!

Mr.Alchemy, any news about your transmission and code????

Mr.GaleForce, good day you are having!!! I pass by a gas station this morning and notice the gas price has 'only' raised to $1.37. Lol, they are soooo generous.

Mr.kenchan, kids/students get less pressure and penalty nowadays, thus lots of young graduates/employees has no idea how to handle real-world situation……

Haven't replace the canvad yet, I chose Spacers+Spoiler over canvas. LOL

Will call the dealership today to setup a time next week.

i agree... my kids come home stupid when they spend too much time with other kids. lol. it's amazing how long it takes kids to be smart and the split second to become idiots again. hahahaha.

ahhhh, i'd be more excited about mods than fixing stock bits too.
so this spoiler is a factory base coupe spoiler?

It's just like drinking 5 cups of expresso to keep us awake but 1 glass of volka to get us drunk. LOL

Reminds me of the movie "Mr. Mom". "What wiring are you running, 220?"

"Yeah, 200, 221, whatever it takes."
