So at 91MPH you are taking a picture of your instrument cluster????
It's called a passenger.

91 mph is still idiotic, regardless of who was shooting the picture. You car was designed to take impacts at 60mph.
If you were doing 93 mph here, in Ontario, you'd be stripped of your license for 10 days, your car would be impounded, you'd be held in jail overnight and you'd be charged $10 000.
That is if you were doing it in a 100 kmph zone. Anywhere else and the fines would be more severe.

Got my windows tinted (35% up front and 15% for the 3 rear)... and plasti dipped the front emblem, and the chrome trim around the grill.
(Door top chrome and the chrome around the fog lights is all that's left to do).
Possibly may try the rims and see if I like 'em that way.

Today I gave her a real good cleaning. Inside/outside/doorjambs/windows/wheels/tire shine. Then "since it was only 80 degrees (F) here. I decided a good waxing would be real nice too.
The car is almost "freakishly" clean. Almost like a museum piece. I dont even want to drive it now-----AHHHH-yeah I do on the second thought.
Of course they are forecasting a "basically" all-day ran Tuesday. But the car will sure be the talk on Monday.

In parts of Texas it is 85 mph which means 90 or so would be acceptible.

On the other side of the coin, cruising at 91mph in the left lane of the autbahn could get you stripped of your license or cause a massive horrendous accident.
What about the unrestricted sections of the U.S., is 91 mph idiotic there?
What are your thoughts on going 10 mph over the posted limit, is that atrociously dangerous? some of the speed limits here are 80 mph?
How about doing 60 mph in these zones, are they safe since the car was designed to handle a crash at that speed? In two of these instances doing 60mph is absolutely idiotic on a normal driving day.
What's my point?? Alot depends on circumstance and blindly passing judgement good or bad is patently ignorant.
Did you know many people in accidents (for speeding, distracted driving, etc), display several root cause issues that few people recognize.
Individuals that don't use turn signals, constantly drive in the left lane, can't maintain speed, not moving over for emergency vehicles, and/or drive beside someone at the same speed on multi-lane roads are significantly more likely to get in an accident.
These habits typically go hand in hand with thought processes that are not good for safe driving. Anticipating traffic movement, being able to quickly avoid unforeseeable hazards, sharing the road, etc are lacking in these people.
And guess what they are independent of speeding or being distracted, which I'm not saying are safe, only that they are massively more dangerous when done by these people than alert and otherwise safe drivers (checking mirrors, signaling, checking blindspot, seeing ahead, moving over for emergency vehicles, etc).
Because knowledge is power.

So....today I decided to dip my hood and redo my grill and badges.
"Evo" grill and badges...Win! :banana:
Dipped out hood...Fail.
Overall I like how the design looks but learned never never NEVER use little cans to dip something as large as the hood. The right equipment would have done wonders, but hey, it's a learning experience. I don't regret it, but know what to do in the future.
Pics coming soon.

Today the french fries multiplied. Fred has been under the driver seat for about two weeks now. Between the seat and center hump...impossible to get. Today my gf dropped another one which could not be found. Named it Francis. Then as I kick her out of the car she dumps the rest of them on the passenger floor. :blankface: All acidental of course but still annoying.

Added the curt trailer hitch. Looks great other than needing a wash!
Are those factory mud flaps I see?
