there's a lot of street traffic on garbage night, and ANYTHING metal gets taken long before the morning when the trucks come. I'm talking fridges, futon frames, TVs.. anything that has metal. My landlord tells me they sell it for crack money. They aren't all homeless people though, most of them have pickup trucks to grab the big items.
No, no tonight! I am leaving work now. hahaha I know what you mean about garbage day though. The only thing that didn't 'move' the first night (actually sat there for 3 weeks) was an old concrete deer the former owners left in their landscaping. We didn't even know it was there until we trimmed the bushes last fall!

I'm not that crazy -- bronze would be HIDEOUS on my car.

But I love it so much :'( wish my car was red!!

Work Emotions in 17" are 19 pounds.. yes I'd be better served just sticking with my current wheels, but they're so pretty

I had some for lunch today (long grain brown) and it was awesome as usual.

While I wouldn't do an unpainted CF hood (again) I do like the look his car has goin on.. has a cf rear spoiler, black roof to tie them together, etc. The front lip is molded on (and sadly just recently got damaged), the rear valance is painted black with red accents, etc.

I'd drive it..

It's pretty well done, just saying my riceometer dipped into the yellow. Sorry for being obtuse there...=\

Is your riceometer an authentic JDM one though? The u.s. made ones give weird readings on JDM-modded cars :P
