Like that one time I painted my car.
I’d had this car for about a bit over a year. It was my first car. It was initially a great emerald green, but I paid it off in October of 2009 and I wanted to do something drastic to it. Being a 4 cylinder Camry there wasn’t much to be done performance wise. So I set my mind on painting it. I went to Walmart, spent about 60 bucks on paint, and tape. And went for it. I did nearly no prep work, and didn’t primer anything. Lol
I still think these camrys are decent looking car. Yes I removed the grill, I thought it looked tougher without it for some reason lol. I did get white bumper lights shortly after this which looked great.Also those fog lights were the first car “modification” I ever did. My dad gave me a 50 dollar Walmart gift card, and I spent it on fog lights and new front door speakers, which I of coarse got bigger than the factory ones, because bigger is better,, and installed them in the plastic door card, not in the door itself. I did a lot of silly things with this car. I was 100% your typical small town ricer.

I’m living my teenage dream of ruining the resale of my cars currently. I have no regrets.

Lucky for me this car ruined it’s own resale value about 2 months later when the trans stopped shifting into reverse.

When you’ve only ever owned one car it’s not hard to choose. Still, much LED lighting is kinda that guy except I did a a fuse converter instead of a cigarette lighter plugin so more work than what that guy would have done.

Cold air intake was first mod. Recently got a super crappy dual catback exhaust and a red aluminum dipstick handle. Although the last two were just cheap and silly ways to fix broken parts.
And that's in addition to random suspension and driveline mods. All on a rusty v6.

Hahaha, yeah V6 Mustang owners be like that sometimes. How on earth did you break the dipstick?

23 year old y ear cycled plastic handle broke. The aluminum handle was like $10 so I went for it.
And the dual exhaust was only $40 more than a single exhaust from jegs. And I needed a new not rusty muffler to pass inspection. So... dual exhaust it is just for the lolz!

Jezza warned us about those kids.

Yeah there were a few holes in the muffler. Midpipe and headers are pretty okay though.

Hammond has always been my favorite

I don’t think I have a favorite, they all have things I like and I guess that’s why they made a good team for the show. I like to watch May’s solo stuff too. I can’t wait for Jezza’s farm show.
