Beware of Girlfriend's Opinion

I have to give my g/f credit. She has taken an interest in customizing her car. Even though it force me to work on an import but it also gives me a chance to do one tastefully. She thinks the the decals and all that are lame...

She got me good though yesterday. She spends alot of time at work looking through car mod sites and playing around photoshoping things on her car. Every once in a while she will send me something about my car... I get this email that says Baby you have to get these wheels. This is what she attached. I pray she is was only joking. (she loves cute things)

Just thought it was funny.

Suddenly I want a box of Teddy Grahams.

I'd say go for them, along with a rainbow paintjob.

The more I look at them, they are starting to grow on me. Or maybe that is just hunger... Rainbow paintjob maybe not but painting my gfx and spoiler pink might be and idea.

Hell ya!!! Get those!!!

You could paint the bear. Put a Bowtie t-shirt on him, a bandana on his head, cig hanging from his mouth, and a beer in his hand.

And you could also do it to her car. That way you guys could match.

Yeah, but you'd have to paint something on em so it looks like he's loosing his lunch. I'd be hurling if someone glued me to a rim and spun me...

LMAO, when I was a kid I had a flip book from Sugar Crisp cereal. The one where the bear caught cereal in his mouth. If you flipped it backwards he would throw-up into his hand.

Hey, I just noticed you were from Germany. Did you buy some rotors for that thing off of ebay about a year ago from a guy in Texas?

MMMMM T-E-D-D-Y G-R-A-H-M-S MMMMMMMM

it's a good look, My g/f wants me to get a 96 SS that is for sale locally and shes wants to by my car. But like everyone else you still have to keep telling them money doesn't grow on trees!!!
Good kill story too:
Pull up to a redlight and sec or so after 93 SHO pulls up with some after market fart cans and my G/F is driving!! Figures!! She says, "I'm gonna race him". I said your going to lose, but if you do stand on it and push it thru the floor. So it goes green and she jumps ahead by about 1 1/2 and then he starts pulling pretty hard to about 60 then we shut off and we had him by about a half a car. Just a G/F story i thought I'd share since were're on the topic, lets move on LOL!!:hail:
