Personalized Touches

Hey guys.

A little off topic from all the turbo Cobalts and **** like that, here's an off the wall post.

I know that alot of guys have little quirks about their cars that's unique to them. Some guys have **** hanging from their mirrors that follows them into every car they own, others may have a certain lisence plate they always use.

For me, I've always, for some reason, had this little Jigglypuff (Pokemon character) hanging from my rear-view. Who knows why? But it's always there. Every car I own. Otherwise, every car I own, I gotta paint the calipers black right away. Plain calipers make me crazy. I also always need different air caps. Who knows why? I don't. Smoked plate cover. And when I own cars with floor shifters, I always have a few of my girls hair ties around it. Again, no idea why.

How about you? I hate leaving cars stock, and I know all you guys do too. Feel free to post pics to liven things up a tad.

No way. I just go through spurts. I post like 800 times in a week, then I don't post for 3 months.

The hair ties thing is a little creepy...oh and my car always smells like Wendys because thats all I pretty much eat. Maybe is just my car but whenever i get food, the AC/Heat system traps that smell in the car for a week, its weird.

Nah. One time though, I had a little spill of some thinner in my trunk (never touched the carpet, but got all over a towel). It smelled like paint thinner for 2 weeks. Luckily it was summer...

I personally can't stand anything that wiggles, wobbles, vibrates, jitters, hangs, flails, makes noise, or anything in general that might distract me from driving. My car is neat. I have a MOMO Shift knob, and various interior changes made, but thats it. I hate any distractions.

Basing his mothers driving on how all women drive is silly. But, their driving can certainly be considered "interesting".

My personal thing is i have an empty can of Rockstar in three of the cup holders and one full one in the closest one to me. It makes my car smell good for a couple of days then i start to cycle them out.

I have had chrome dice since I've been driving. Since I got them, I have not seen anyone with chrome dice.

I also keep rubbers in the glove box, good cologne under my seat, an engine under the hood, and tires on the wheels. Do those count?

with GM these days, you never know when your car will quit in the winter!

also helpful for backseat visits!

also helpful when people you don't want touching your car have to ride with u! make them sit on the blanket!

Not a thing, I keep it meticulously clean inside, and because of this, it still smells brand ass new after having it over a year.
