couple things: removed stickers from knee-knocker! Sooner or later I'll write up the DIY on removal. it is silly and simple. there is a small amount of mod podge remaining on the piece since i haven't finished the removal process :p


Oh look, that piece of plastic I needed so my alternator will stop getting soaked, yay! If i would have realized how important this piece was to keeping your alternator WORKING, i'd have gotten it a long time ago.... Oh yeah, I painted it. just need the skid plates now.
Yes, that's a yaris windshield (pretty much immaculate, too). tell me how to sell it, i refuse to throw away good glass! can i sell it?


Got bored today and washed the car. would have went into uber detail mode, but weather kind of kills that. detailing as soon as rain stops...


I like the shade of gold my camera turns the wheels. TOO BAD THEY GETTIN PAINTED


more pictures soon, gotta finish painting and such. anyone know a part number for the belt i need when i remove my A/C? might do that tomorrow if the weather permits.

Too bad you're so far away. I would take that windshield off your hands in a heartbeat for Crashy.

Damn. of course i bet shipping is ridiculous, lol. Speaking of windshield parts -
what exactly is the purpose of the two little pieces that go here? I'm missing one completely, and my other one is not there entirely, and out of the car.

Zip ties. When i was working in the mall in downtown portland, some punk ass kid who was participating in "Occupy" decided to hit my grill since i got stopped in the crosswalk right between two sections of the mall. Found him walking around. brought security with me and got him excluded for 5 years for harassing an employee, lol. he got arrested later for drug use across the street. Karma.

Also - copy paste update yay!

WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT APPLYING DECALS, WHEN YOU ONLY GET TO DRIVE YOUR MOMMAS MINIVAN?
I could not get them straight today, but you only get one shot, so there it sits. the S decided to come off too, so i had to do my best to get it straight.....some days it just doesn't work, you know? lol. I'll redo them someday when i get more :p



Oh yeah, i forgot.....GAS MONKEY, THAT PETROL MONKEY! No? Not feeling it? It's ok, i never could sing very well.

The best that I can tell, they are just trim pieces that fill the gap between the top of the fender and the windshield.
