its was nice meeting you in person. You got me hooked on that detailing site I have like $275 in my cart right now LOL

Also I am glad you liked the car, I am really proud of it. Seeing those other PLAIN 5.0's last night made me happy.

What's in your cart? That's a lot for assorted stuff. PM or text me if you want some suggestions.
