    lol, yeah I don't think I go through $120 in TISSUES in 5 years. That would look sweet at the front desk of a shop like Imola or something though.

    I've been asking for the brake caliper wrist watch and the suspension arm table lamp for Christmas for years

    I'll probably break down and buy myself the watch for my bday one of these years.

    Of course it is. I'm saying the holder costs more than I'd spend on tissues in a lifetime... then again I asked for a CF wallet this year so different strokes lol

    I still have the Mark Lovell 1:18 AutoArt SCCA ProRally car that Subaru released when he won the National Championship a few years ago. They made 2000 of them, the detail on it is amazing. AutoArt makes some great stuff, I still need to find a Ron Fellows C5R and C6R model.

    Gotta love AutoArt! I have spent too much money building a collection of 1:18 scale diecast.

    You'll have alot of problems cutting vinyl that small. You'd be better off getting a sheet of printable water slip decal paper and printing everything that is on your car and cutting them with a razor blade. If this thing was 1/12 or 1/10th, you'd probably be able to get away with vinyl graphics. 1/18th is just too small. The other thing to remember is that vinyl has a thickness. On a real car 1:1 scale, that 3 mil vinyl seems very thin, on a 1/18th scale car it ends up thick. And I believe the printed films are even thicker.

    BTW, I think I have about 5 sheets of that stuff. I'd be willing to donate a sheet to making a ZRT car out of one of those.

    That isn't going to block all air into the hood scoop. The scoop doesn't really start becoming effective till you are at higher speeds anyway. It is likely just an extra barrier of protection against flying rocks and such during a chase.
