5th gen Off Topic Thread (Official Ghustle thread v1)
Those are titanium M6 nuts with those funky rubber-backed washers on the bumper straps and radiator tie-downs.
Do whatever you want, man. Experiment. It's your car, and odds are you (and us) are the only ones who will ever see under the hood.
Once again, my teenage friend, age has far more benefits than youth. (Unless you hate shaving, which I do.) Talk to me about it in 30 years, and you'll see.
Of course, I'll likely be dead by then.
Out of curioisity, and if you don't mind me asking, just shoot me a rough age range? 40-50, 50-60 etc
late but you stay ya azzz out NUKKKKKKK
Pops you're immortal, we all know this by now.

Methodology? No, not really. Although you have to admit, it made sense to use the fender washers on the headlight straps, don't you think? But buttoncap ti-bolts on the open-hood sensor.

fair enough. I am trying to find those buttoncap type tapered bolts in anything but titanium and it's ******* pricey!!! Cheapest I've found is 40 shipped for a 20 pack of aluminum ones, m6*20mm.
I have also pretty much nixed the idea I had of painting the washers body color. I may do a couple just to see, but right now I'm thiking leaving them silver and pretty, and leaving the body color (or black) to the rad. supports and what-not...

Those VMS ones sure are pretty...but I could just spray some SS washers gunmetal to get the same look...or keep the shiny :dunno:
Nah, I don't mind. Age is in my profile. I'm 48. That's almost three of you, LOL.
IDK, Aaron. The scary thought for me is why you're on your knees so much.But the real question is what doughnuts attract you and would you mind dressing up as abraham lincoln tonight?I'll even give you a ride in the back seat of the G.......

No wait, I've got two of them in gunmetal, holding the white overflow bin in place. The gunmetal looked better than black here.
I simply can't imagine what that's like. Getting people angry for the fun of it? For shame!
LOL
But not noobs! That would just be mean. Unless it's an intake thread, and then all bets are off.

CJ; I say take the GTR to work Monday & show it to Apu before he finds out you ripped apart his rack. He'll crap curry when he sees the car & then the rack!
Or am I politically incorrect w/ that suggestion?

But I tried. You can't rock to that crap, Crusher. It just makes you angry. Now this, this is Rock:
IIRC Isn't Apu the guy's preferred nickname.
Hmmmm..."Poop gnocchi" & "lesser races" sure sounds bigoted to me 'Archie Bunker'!
That's right! I forgot that I'm a "blithering WOP" according to 'Mr. politically correct.' Should I consider that a bigoted ethnic slur 'Archie'?

Good one, kid! I'd talk further, but considering your age disclosure, I'd like not to get arrested. So carry on.
By any chance were you someone who actually got angry watching All in the Family in the 70's? You're so missing the point that there's no point in pointing out the point.
