Same.
Bolt on flares remind me that every day in thousands of bedrooms across the world, children are getting raped as we speak. Damn flares.
Those metal flares though? They're just dang nice.

Shamefully copied from legendary VINbro's threads
Old thread will autosage soon
Old thread here - >>15229343
>I am able to run US/Canadian VINs (anything with a fitting VIN; bikes, cars and so on) and US plates. For plates the same rules apply as VINs; 1981 or newer, US registered, and the plate and state are needed. Plates do work most of the time, but VINs are more reliable.
>Please remove hyphens (dashes) from VINs/plates - unless they happen to be part of a vanity plate. This makes copying and pasting easier.
>I can only run vehicles in/originally in the USA/Canada. If they've been exported from the USA/Canada, a report with their time here will be available. Not yet sure about imported cars.
>Vehicles need to be of the 1981 model year or newer. That's when standardized VINs began. Anything older simply cannot be run for a report.
>There are never I(i), O(o), nor Q(q) in VINs. This is to avoid confusion with 1 and 0. So if you are unsure, it is always 1 or 0 (not the case for classic cars, but they cannot be run anyway).
>VINs must be 17 characters exactly. No more, no less.
>If you want the PDF-file you can open the page source (F12) and search "amazonaws", copy the whole link and put it in your browser. This should allow you to download the PDF. If its not working send me an email at [email protected]. Please leave a reply if you do so

What's a fitting car for a young female designer of textiles and furniture who's doing pretty well for herself?
Should be pretty striking and indicative of taste.
She has a standard white fiat 500 right now (see pic), which is pretty fitting, but underpowered and uncomfortable during longer rides (noise, etc.).

Help /o/
For fathers day my dad bought me a huge tool set. He said it was a gift to himself, so I wouldn't bother him to fix things.
Guys I literally have no idea what any of this shit does, I do computers. My dad says now that I have tools he wont help me, he told me to go out on my car and just play around, I am fucking terrified I am going to break something or get chemicals on me.
When am I supposed to fix my car? My dad just seems to know when and what to do, what is he paying attention to? Sometimes a light comes on in the gauges, other times he starts working on it for seemingly no reason, is he adjusting things? I don't get it.
What tool or combo of tools do I use? Sometimes I see him grab a group of tools out of his tool kit and line them up next to the car before going under it, he almost always grabs them in order. Do they have to be in the right order? Do different combos or orders do different things?
Some of the tools look like they fit together, am I just being stupid or is that supposed to happen?
>Pic related looks close, most cars are built with all the same parts so the tools are standard, right?

I think you're retarded.
I'm sorry.
When he grabs a group of tools from his kit it's most likely because he knows what tools he needs for the job.
For you? If you've got a somewhat new car, just general maintenance stuff. Oil changes, making sure fluids are level, etc
If you've got an older one with problems then you figure out what's wrong, do some research on how to fix it or refer to your service/shop manual, and go at it
The tools are pretty self-explanatory, it should be obvious what they're used for
>>
>>15305542
I don't think I have ever cringed so hard in my entire life as a mechanic reading this thread.
I hope my kids wrench with me and not sit at a fucking computer all day.
Be happy your dad has a little confidence in you. He's trying to raise a man
>>
>>15305542
The easiest thing to do for you is change the oil on your shitbox. Changing tires as well, but usually you don't need to do that unless you get a flat.

pic related is from a for sale Miata ad in my area.
Honestly Miatas aren't my thing. Even if they are decent I don't want one out of principle. Miatas have ruined car culture inforcing this cancerous "IF ITS NOT RWD AND LIGHT WEIGHT THEN ITS SHIT, LOW WHEEL BASE LOW WEIGHT RWD" culture that pays more attention to the things on paper then how the cars actually fucking drive.
