Message	I didnt use a clip...mistake #1.....so many of the parts that I purchased were crap. i.e. engine (pre-existing blown headgasket that the previous owner didnt inform me of, which lead to overheating and warped heads, hence my new motor build), radiator, clutch....all burned on because people are assholes and sold me faulty parts. The snowball syndrome that Arnel describes has a lot to do with it as well. ------------------------------------------------------------ bJammmin: i was thinking about masking off the bottom part (black on your lip) and painting mine flat black, caus it'll just keep getting scuffed forever sfpearl300z: thats half the reason why i did it to mine sfpearl300z: dont have to worry about any imperfections sfpearl300z: cause it gets so much abuse bJammmin: yeah dude so true goddamn bJammmin: why are you a fucking genius sfpearl300z: lol sfpearl300z: you know what i hate? bJammmin: whats dat yo sfpearl300z: being so damn smart bJammmin: LOL sfpearl300z: i actually dont look too far into the lives of people on the forums sfpearl300z: dont pay close enough attention WickedPuddle: see WickedPuddle: thats where you and i are different WickedPuddle: i am on a whole different level of having no life MiCHaeLkiH: i forked out 650 for my vibrating one Fst300zx: its never been a problem until lately HAHA sfpearl300z: lol Fst300zx: itll fall everyonce ina while.. i just pump it a few times and it stays up sfpearl300z: yeah Fst300zx: haha damn this is a rough conversation
