Just finished up waxing the Monte, still have to do the tires and clean up the windows... hm. I noticed some spots of touch up paint done poorly in inconspicuous areas like under my surfboard spoiler.

Hanging out with the gf later onnnnn hmm.

I hear you Justin, it sucks though, anyway you look at it, replacing a tie rod the car will need aligned also, but these freaking places kill on inspections! he said he would take it somewhere next time, but do you think the inspection places care, hell no. there will be 10 more people behind him bringing in their cars
