Listen to this song while reading and scrolling through pictures - it describes the relationship I have with my car when we find grounds to cooperate.

Today was pretty productive!
Woke up early when I didn't have to, met up with Kevin so he could purchase a Canon 6D, followed by having some coffee and a veggie breakfast buritto (veggie meant that they put bell peppers inside. Uh, yeah.). Then we took a trip to everyone's favorite autoparts store, Home Depot, to buy some things we needed to tighten up some odds and ends on our cars:
A better solution to mounting Kevin's sideskirts and materials to wipe off the red lipstick my car has been sporting for the past couple months so that Ryan can stop making fun of me.
Unfortunately, we gave up on Kevin's car because we bought the wrong items and didn't feel like trekking back to our favorite auto parts establishment because day light was running out from all the time we wasted up until this point.
So I pulled into Kevin's garage and got started with the make-up remover.
My IS lip is haggard because I've ran it over a few times with the splitter attached and dragged it once under the car 100 feet or so.
OEM quality at it's finest.
(don't buy eBay lips, they shatter.)
Excuse the festive red nose - I wasn't bothered enough to remove it after the winter holidays.
Kevin captured the moment when I finally discovered what the clicking noise over speed-bumps was - I have to tend to a bad control-arm balljoint soon.
Took a bit of time off to fool around on Kevin's bike, a Honda Shadow.
I'm actively looking to purchase a CB500 - 550 and soaking up as much information as I can with the help of two good friends. It'll be my first bike and I'm trying not to die.
Kevin's bike is for sale in case anyone is looking for something of the like.
Stopped fooling around and got back to the car.
Okay I lied, we actually wasted a lot of time, but the bumper and valance were off around sunset as seen here behind my silhouette.
At this point Kevin started using some dealership OEM touch-up paint on a couple of deep scratches on his sideskirts from when he hit a poor rabbit on the highway at like 70mph or something.
I would of loved to take nice pictures for you guys, but I was present when he pulled out a wad of cash for that camera in the morning and wasn't about to touch it.
So fast forward a bit and the front-end of my car isn't as stupid looking anymore.
I sent a picture to Ryan so he could see for himself and stop making fun of me, but he replied saying it's photoshopped.
His multiple 2002's have changed him.
Kevin and I cleaned up and took my dusty car to find a place to take nice photos.
I think he nailed it.
foreverbrakelining.
It's been a long time since I shared any content - I hope you enjoyed it and fancied Kev's shots.

edit:
Finally found the bike I've been looking for:
Posted in order is mine, Ryan's (Phre$hkid), and Mike's (mkcman17) out for a drive on PCH.
