How do you shave?

[lambo]

How do I shave? Well I start by lifting the balls and using short strokes from center to outside. Then I move up...

Proceed...


Wait...

use electric clippers with the shortest guard on my sack. safety first. strictly a blade guy for my face, though.

a few years ago, at my company there was a story about a mechanic that wanted to ride in the observer's seat from point a to point b. it was said that he partied pretty hard the night before and somehow in his drunken stupor, was overcome with the need to shave his nuts. one thing led to another and he apparently cut himself in the dick/groin area really bad. the next morning he started bleeding again profusely in flight. the crew had to divert to some intermediate city and have the airplane met by paramedics. by the time they got him to medical help, he almost bled out in the cockpit. i would have loved to have been there to hear the passenger announcement to explain this shit to the customers on board. a few days after this incident, i was down at the maintenance hangar for some reason i can't remember. invariably, this was the subject of conversation. this guy's coworkers showed me the seat cushion as proof. it looked like a soaked through nasty tampon that hadn't been changed in 3 months. to this day, i still can't figure out what the fuck that guy was doing down there.

the moral of the story is apparently: manscape your "engine bay" however you want. just don't do it when you are f'ed up.

Explain that one to me. The only thing I deleted that could possibly be used on a daily basis, and that's in the winter, is the washer fluid tank.

It's just not convenient at all. I wasn't saying it from a standpoint of deleting anything, it's the fact that everything is stuffed into one or two main spots. Having a crap load of lines/wires in one spot. PITA imo.:-|

most the time i do my face then my balls and shit.
but sometimes i start down low, just for the shock factor.

My friend needs to do this on his 300zx since his engine is super cramped.

I've personally. Never seen an e28 shaved engine bay but that's nouthing google can't fix =] but I'm going to try my hand at it and see how it comes out I think.

[slammin.e28]

I'll be having my e28's bay after the Vintage this year. Should have while I had the engine out swapping it, but was too eager to get the car running again.

lol..

[russhixmo]

So I've come to the conclusion there really is no way to describe an exact procedure to do a bay tuck on my car and u kinda just do what you can and hope for the best lol

On topic: This is why we don't shave our bays.



And also it is a pointless endeavor. It's a crap ton of work for just looks, and marginally beneficial looks at that. A full body resto and paint, sure that is for looks too, but worth it. A clean engine bay is nice, but making sure it's nothing but metal and paint? over the top imo.
