I tried reverse psychology and got tint, subwoofer and suspension stiffening for HER car. But she told me she couldn't tell the difference and that I just did it for my own amusement anyway. 
Her best line ever was when I went on a suspension and engine rebuild binge for my TR6: " You spent all that time and money on the car and it doesn't look any different!"
Otherwise, she's a keeper.....  |
I then have everything installed and once the car is home, she notices how it looks or sounds and says "Is there sometihing new in the car?" I say "it's the engine breaking in. As you puit more miles on it, it sounds more and more like a hot rod".
p.s. She used to drag race with me back in the day and knows I'm full of s**t. She just gets a kick out of letting me think I pulled something over on her.[/quote]
Sorry to jack the thread just have to throw in my wifes rants. When I buy parts and have them shipped to a separate mail box, paid with a bank account that for the most part is hidden. Then once the part comes in it goes into the trunk for a while, until I get home early one day or she has to work late then it quickly gets put on. She has a right to be mad I am on my third different Cold Air Intake. Wait until I get an SRT-8, I promised her no "engine" mods for a year.
