the pic i snapped with my phone really quickly so the guy wouldnt see me

The cost was the same as in the dealer, a steep 280.00. But I decided to do it ust this once for the "cool factor"

Nah, didnt rotate the tires/wheels, they are new and staggered anyway

I never let anyone detail my car, i love to do it myself... its like therapy to me

ahhh, well, 280......it's okay, I respect the fact that it's being taken care of more
than if you used your own hands you know what I mean?
so many cats get all up in arms about 'DIY' you know?
and I respect that too....
I have a ton of love for this car, LOL.....sick materialism I know!

i gotta admit, i'm a DIY guy. I enjoyed installing my coilovers. and i really like working on my 85 C10 stepside

But when it comes to stuff like maintenance, i usually have it done, just makes sense to me

I'd hate to be the mechanic in the dead of winter or summer. Neat service though.
