    Licence Plates

    Just curious, do the cops not bother w/ enforcing these any more? there's a tw@ at work who's plate is literally half the height of a regular plate on his obvious attempt at a street racer, no way it's even close to regulation dimensions.

    Got my alloys refurbed in an attempt to stop some mysterious pressure loss, turns out the process redoes the entire wheel unless you get the diamond cutting bit too. Was a bit unsure, but when i saw her i'm really happy
