Not today. 
Probably have to wait until my dad's next paycheck. He said that in a couple days we could see how we're doing moneywise, and if we are pretty stable then we could try to do it then, but I told him I'd rather wait and have it sit in the driveway than scrounge for pennies at the end of the month before his next pay day.

EDIT: You were probably talking about the gaskets on the gas tank, which I did swap last weekend, after which it passed smog perfectly fine.

We'll see about that. How often does it really work like that, though?

You shut up with your negative waves lol. If Arin says somethings gonna happen a certain way, then its going to happen that certain way. And if it doesn't, you still nod your head and go along and pretend it did. Because Arin said so 
You know how it is

It's quite agrivating to have a working car stuck in the driveway due to lack of funds.

At least it's much better than a non-working or no car stuck in the driveway for the same reason - been there, done that, never hope to be there again. Maintenance and "Mod funds" non-existent FTL.

Got those fog lights hooked up last night. They don't work very well, but I'm glad that almost everything on the car is in working order. (Save for the front blinkers and the rear speakers.)
I don't really like how they look... Any comments degrading them I wouldn't take very offensively since I neither bought nor installed them, simply wired them up.

I'm not sure how I managed to forget to post it on here... She is officially MINE as of Friday. She is getting registered tomorrow, still uninsured for the moment, and therefore will not be driven Money is still tight and we can't pull the trigger all the way on starting with those payments, but I'm happy with the baby steps. I still need to get enough money to spend on tires... and to pay for the side exhaust
but things are moving in the right direction.
