GM's 2012 Chevy Sonic ad in a herrafrush magazine someone signed me up to as a cruel joke: OK.. whatever. Wait, what's that?  Yes I took this picture with an Android powered potato.

Some 'p' platers pulled up beside me in their RX8 and pointed repeatedly at their 'FOURDOORS4WHORES' sticker. I don't know what they were trying to tell me. I mean they have four doors too right?

Viggen posted:That has to be a prank.. it looks like a really bad coat of plastidip.  Dunno dude. At first I thought somebody watched Cannonball Run and decided that a car painted with radar relective paint was something they wanted in their life. But then I remembered that radar reflective paint is kinda expensive and this being an early 2000s Solara, this was probably not what they were going for. I can only assume that it's a grandkids car, as that is a mobile home park catering to older, retired folks who don't need to be in a nursing home, but want the close-knit communities they grew up with. Or some kind of similar bullshit. All I know is it had a massive fartcan, which I couldn't get in the pic as I was driving by and there was traffic behind me and a few random stickers, one, which may have been that little juggalo meat cleaver thingy, but I can't be sure.

Isn't radar-reflective paint, you know, the exact opposite of what you actually want on your car? Unless your vehicle is shaped like a stealth fighter, all that reflected energy is going straight back to the transceiver. What you want is radar-absorbent paint.  (which is basically just fluidized iron filings, so it is really expensive and weighs an enormous amount and wears off in bad weather and requires amazingly toxic solvents to apply so yeah)

And for all that, you still have a windshield which reflects more than enough radar signals.

So you mean I could have kept the old gear oil from my beetle and made a fortune selling it as radar absorbent paint?

Didn't get a pic, but a Mustang came into the shop today. Cheap plastichrome pedals and HVAC controls, gauge cluster surround was broken off, tyte cold air intake, "carbon fiber" plastic cover around the hood latch mechanism, and the main thing that jumped out was the fake, stick-on hood pins. They weren't even mounted remotely near where the hood support goes across the front.

It does. Didn't you see the sparkly lights on the ceiling and the automatically retracting iPad holders in the seats? I like when he says "Eterniti Motors has been developing luxury vehicles for 18 months."

Hey kids, who likes ordering car parts? My friend had a smashed mirror glass on her car, so I said I'd order one in and fit it when we met up earlier in the month (we live 200 miles from each other). Glass turned up, excellent quality, good as the original, just what I wanted, went to fit it... and it's for the wrong side. The box says it's correct, but the part itself is wrong. Order another and send it back, this one turns up and it's a stick-on glass with a cheapo fitment clip thrown in the box with it, great, thanks guys! That goes back too. At this point, they've received the message I sent them about the first one, and misinterpret what I say to send me out a replacement. Which arrives, and turns out to be another stick-on one, only this time it has the cheapo clip attached to it. No. No. No. I tell them to stop sending me parts and order one from someone else, paying extra to get it delivered quickly. In the intervening period, I have a parcel arrive while I'm out and go to the post office to get it. It's a fourth one from the first guys, having obviously been sent out before they got my "For the love of God, stop" message. I just tell the postie to sling it back, I've got another one on the way, right? Mirror glass from company number two arrives just in time for the weekend. One of the mounting lugs is missing from the fitment clip. Not snapped off in the packaging due to damage in transit, broken before being wrapped up and sealed. Ugggghhnnn. Ask them to send out a good one, which they are doing, but they don't understand why I want them to refund the premium I paid to have it sent by fast post. Yes, it got here on time, but I paid extra to be sure I got the part for a given date. Sending me a broken part for that date doesn't really help me much, does it? Frankly, as long as the next one that turns up fits, I honestly don't care any more. It's been hilarious the disproportionate amount of frustration I can feel over a part that costs about a tenner and takes twenty second to fit.
