    Yeah, I'm not going to lie, I take the woman approach. :) I changed it once on this car so I would know how, but its so much easier to not do it myself.

    Cool, the inside of my car looks like destruction and there isn't a pannel that does not have a scratch on it :) But I try to draw attention away from that with my touch screen, racing seats, and all the little turbo gadgets going in tonight :) But I think at some point I would like to return the inside to completel brand new looking condition. Maybe even fiberglass a new dashboard. That might be a cool project to hit up later on.

    i would do my own oil changes but i dont want to go through the hasstle of doing it... if i can just add lets say 5 more dollars to the parts, i can get it done by my mechanic... where there's a lift and can take only 5-10 mins...
