    Default Goodbye DD, Hello Old Friend

    WELP,

    I had been driving a '13 Hyudai Veloster Turbo for the past few years as my commute started to suck (bumper to bumper for ~1.5 hrs), but now that I moved closer to work, its 15 minutes (70% highway, 30% surface streets)

    So I thought, why not save the ~$400 payment and start driving the WS6 again?

    it had been in storage since '12 the last time the opti took a dump on me and I didnt have time to fix it, so I got it going, and had the AC fixed and its running pretty good, it shutters off idle and still throws the CES light after a while, but overall pretty good.

    Feels good man

    funny story about those, so when I first moved back to Texas, I left the car at my parents house while my wife and I were in an apartment waiting for our house to sell.

    So my dad had the plasti dip and the tire paint, because he did the wheels/tires on his old chevy pickup.

    I was at work and I get the pictures, I was so mad, I didnt know he plasti dipped the wheels, so I thought he just spray painted them. And at first I hated the white letters, I thought it looked really ricer

    But when we went to visit one long weekend, I checked it out and drove it, it really grew on me, in real life it just looks mean, straight out of Madmax or something.
    Anyways. haha

    I agree, I actually like the white letters. Thought about doing it on my car.

    I'll be the negative nancy. I can't stand the white lettering fad that's currently around. At all.
