New Pics of my Max for those who care....Good quality!

Yeah, I finally got ahold of a 3.3 megapixel digital cam, and it was sunny for a change, so I washed my max and started taking pix. Before I knew it, I had 50 pictures taken! I felt like Austin Powers....I put thumbnails and the pix up here : http://home.attbi.com/~kkindt4/Album/albframe.htm
and there's alot of them. So go take a look if you're interested.

I've been hit in the head by that SOB at least 3 times! just last week I tried to be slick and lift it up one day to tighten a screw really quick and BAAAAAAAAAAM....I'm almost decapitated! I'm gonna need some new ones when that CF hood comes in though.

Your old crappy ones might hold the CF hood up... ??
I got a knot on the back of my head from an incident just the other day. You'd think after 5 or so times of getting wacked I'd learn my lesson!! It seems to be worse when it's cold outside...

true it will be a lot lighter, hey thats my excuse for buying the hood then....so I don't have to buy new shocks!

and yeah when its cold, I give my struts 30 seconds before they give out, after that, clear all heads, hands and objects, cause that bad boy is coming down full force!!!

I got a big gash in my forehead yesterday because I thougnt I had my shocks fixed by swaping with my wifes car (her hood never falls) and I was taking my dented fender off and I had it all off but one nut that was on the bumper cover...so I am leaning down getting that last nut off and bam I get hit in the back of the head and pushed into the sharp corners of the body (fender normally covers it up) and I got a pretty good gash about 3 inches long but not too deep. My wife thinks I should get stitches but im stuborn and the bleeding stoped anyway so I am not gonna worry with them just use bandaids.

hmmm. I seem to be getting more compliments on my hood prop than my car.. For those of you who want to know, it's a piece of leftover molding from a household project.

Also, the grey car in the garage is a 1991 Infiniti G20 with 200000 miles on it and still going great.

WOW, I somehow missed that G20. Any chance you would want to sell it???

They also sell them as the Moda R6 at www.tirerack.com Awsm66's wheels are actually the Radius brand version (which is whack btw! ) but they're identical. $199 each in the 17" size last time I drool- er... checked them out.

ALSO: [me makes ritual sacrifice to working hood struts]

thats not even the worse

I was doing something under my gxe's hood and my hand wasabout 2" to the right of the latch and it closed and latched, (but didnt close all the way ) with my wrist right under it, I had to call my neighbor to pop the hood, and I dont know how but all that happened was sprained wrist and a lot of pain. lol

Hm. I guess the email notification thing stops working after a while. Yeah, the Infiniti belongs to my mother, who's had it for 7 years now. I don't think she'd part with it for anything but a new Infiniti. she's totaly sold on them. And yes, the guy at the parts store says that the props are 19.99 each, so I may get some.
