I appreciate the thought, but I already ordered a new set.  Besides, they aint round, their kinda funny-shaped rectangular with one corner rounded and tapered.

well, looks like we had our own little Watercooled shop day today at my house.  Josh came over and we tackled his car.  Seems he finally wanted to go with the "Rounds".  He also wanted a rear hatch glass that didn't have a third brake light, and it just so happened I had a car with hatch glass without a third brake light and I wanted a third brake light...so a trade was in order!  Here are some pics of today.

they're multiplying!!!!


EDIT here's a "before" shot

oooooh yeeeeeeaaaahhh...

I should post a before pic to see the difference. It will look even nicer with the badgeless grill and the lip spoiler. Thanks man. It looks really nice and I owe it to you for your help. Looks like you got the glass you wanted and a lil toy for your home network. Worked out nicely. I will be posting pics of my car with the wheels I also picked up today over in my section in a few days. Also that guy I got the wheels from might be interested in joining the club. He is a Rice Burner convert and wants to get into the VW scene. I forgot to get those business card's from you but I pimped us out well.

This will undoubtedly be my last post here...as it is I have too many things to be concerned about than this website crap

I have a baby due in December, which we found out today its a Boy...and guess what, my house is not big enough for it...
I am in the process of trying to buy a house, which is a foreclosure, so
I am trying to work with 3 different banks to try and come up with a cash loan to purchase the house
my work is getting worse.  we lost 2 IT people, so know its down to 3 support people supporting 600+ users.
my current house, i now have to fix up, with no money, so that i can get a renter in here if we DO get this house
my wife, on top of being pregnant, injured her ankle at work and is out on Workmans comp, and making 60% of her wages, which adds to the NO MONEY thing.
trying to figure out how to fix broken vehicles, damaged house, pay bills, and still afford to eat.
and on top of that, my sister's wedding is this weekend, and I am doing the music AND was just informed tonight that I am to do the photography as well because the photographer is sick.
and to top it all off, I think I may have tore my rotator cuff at work as my shoulder is now killing me, which now I got to figure out how I am supposed to fix up a fixer-upper house that I am trying to buy, so we can live it it, by myself as usual, with a messed up shoulder...and I am affraid to say anything, becuase I cannot afford to be out of work on comp if I do need medical attention, and I don't want that to jeapordize this house purchase, which we really want.
oh yea and the graphics card is now glitching out on my computer (jinxed), so i am going to have to figure THAT one out, too.

And now I have to deal with Website crap?...no thanks.

Lord help me, because no one else is.

Peace out.
