I know not today but this was Friday night. What normally took a 1 hour and 45 min drive from La Jolla to Valencia ended up as a nasty 4 hours and 15 minute trek. Same road no detaours, just the rains and Friday rush hour. One great thing about the drive back even in stop and go traffic was that every drive under the bridge was an opportunity

especially under any steel bridge.

probably get some hate for this, but i plasti-dip'd my ark grip 2 can's today. turned out nice. also, did some research beforehand. apparently our mufflers after some hard runs will only reach about 100-120F. plastidip is safe to 200F so im good there.

You have me thinking now. If I plastidip my entire exhaust will it prevent rust? Act sort of as a sealant? No one sees the underside anyways, so just leave the tip shiny (which are easy to clean on each car wash). Dunno how well platidip handles heat.

it handles upto 200F. our mufflers after extended driving and even high revving runs will only hit about 120F at most. it would be safe for the muffler...but i doubt anything else. exhaust temperature would be far too hot if it was sprayed on anywhere else.

Took her out to my favorite curvy road both Saturday and Sunday. I love living 25 minutes away from this.

Nice! Where it is? My parents live in Austin too(near E Parmer Ln?). Maybe next time when I visit my parents I will spot you somewhere or maybe I will drive my dad's Rav4 to the Austin Z meet.

Don't hate. Lol.

Went out for a drive, cruise around the mall, passed by a group of Good Looking Girls and one of them yell out "Your Car Is Sexy" as I passed by. I Just said "Thanks", I Really wish I had some Self-Esteem Hahahaha. Sad

Volkswagens are kind of hard to spot and we do have a lot of blind spots. hopefully nobody was hurt.

Good one

Not much clean up, a few squirts of window wash and swipes with the wipers, cleaned all the blood and guts off the windshield. An ugly lil bugger, reminds me of Men in Black.
