    A1 will do fine. That means I have first dibs to the toilet. Heck I may even be able to listen in on the mile high club meetings. :D

    Wrinkle paint will actually aid in heat dissipation. Think of them as lots of tiny cooling fins ;) :)!!

    And let me just add that when using VHT you need to bake the painted items for an hour at 200F.

    DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT use your wife's kitchen oven for this purpose UNLESS you have a comfortable couch.....

    Now that's unfair :( Chocolate in this country is inferior to say the least. There is still nothing as good as Australian Cadbury..........

    Say.... anyone want to buy an Enzo steering wheel?

    Cruelty..... sheer cruelty!


    I was going to put it on the Mondial, then my wife found out how much it cost :( After the kitchen oven incident, I am in the dog house, so the wheel must go....

    Wouldn't be too difficult to wire up the thumb-activated left/right blinkers. For that matter, steering wheel lights and wipers would obviate the need for a new column switch unit if one ever went bad.

    That would be a sweet aftermarket product...a steering wheel that replaced the column switch unit.
