Browsing through one of the local ricer boards...I mean import boards and found this pic from a car show. A certain sticker popped out more than any other.

I will never paint a car again.

Speaking of GRM stickers...can I get one that's printed on duct tape?

It seems like a whole car would be a bit busy, but an offset 12" stripe following the same principle would look awesome on a white car.

If you guys like that you might like this one too. This is a friend of mine's drift beater:

Yes, the entire hood is covered in real cut-out iced tea cans. I can't even imagine how much work that must have been...

I bought some industrial woodgrain laminate to match a panel to a set of cabinets in my house (most people can not find it) It only came in a 200 foot roll and I needed a 2'x3' piece.

I can't wait to use it.

Oh mannn... i can already envision the potential awesomeness.

Make sure you post it everywhere on the internet. Half of The Vortex will have entire cars in woodgrained laminate or veneer in a matter of weeks.

Or:

Would you be willing to Hispana Suiza-fy my MX6 for me?

I was thinking of trying to find an early (~1982) Mazda 626, I have wood for one.

That would be acceptable. I have a spare Haynes for that car if you would ever want it. (I wouldn't recommend it. It's infuriating.)

It would be useless. The next 626 I get will end up with a 6 cylinder, dual exhaust and a six speed. They don't make a Haynes for what I would want to do.

Probably, but i'm about to clock out for the day. Shoot me an email and we'll talk shop tomorrow. I gotta pick your brain about something anyways, seeing as you seem to have a lot more suspension knowledge than i do, and i happen to have a suspension problem. (Maybe.)
