Uh...I moved it?

I'm finishing the detail on my next-door neighbors' 2001 E320.

For Fun and Profit!

I don't think he's washed this thing since I detailed it for him last summer. That's going to cost him!

I know you've done more bodywork than me, and I beleive you lol. But, its ok.. when it breaks again Ill fix it the right way. I have alot of leftover resin and glass in my garage. It's not costing me anything lol. I just wanted to fix a crack that was bothering me without taking off the bumper. The glass did bond nicely to the bumper though, and seems to be stonger than ever. I'm just starting to mess around with fiberglass, so I'm kind of just using it anywhere I can lol.

My daughter's school had a fund-raising car wash for her dance team, so I bought a ticket and let them give it a bath. One of the dads dried it and left dirty streaks all over the paint and glass. Now it's actually dirtier than when I arrived.

I guess it's time to wash her again.

Eurocharged group tune today at Bluecoupes, the result was that his neighbor will be moving soon.
This group is rowdy, the police were not called despite the vandalism and public drunkenness.
