    LOL, you're a little bugger aren't you?

    Well yeah I know about the Toyota Altezza, but I haven't looked into any JDM mods for the Lex. I think there are enough things to do first.....

    Decided to take my Corolla for a few photos at an underground parking lot today. Then when I got home I noticed that the tide was in across the road from my place, so zapped over there and took a quick photo there too :)

    Looks beautiful as always! The fogs are looking tidy in those garage pics.

    So the tide was in, what is it like when it is out? I guess not something you want to take a pic of with your car?

    Thanks mate :D. The fog lights came out really overexposed in the pics, but it ended up working out quite well in the end.

    Haha, looks like shit when it's out, just muddy, sandy and bland. Here's a shot I took today while it was in (the green stuff is moss on top of the rocks, not sewerage or anything [IMG]) -

    Ah, so when the tide is out, all of that mossy stuff is exposed, and you don't want that "sewerage" in your pic!!

    Found out yesterday that my Corolla has made 'Showoff of the Week' on CarDomain this week, which was very cool to hear ;D.

    Here's the link: http://www.cardomain.com/sotw

    In other news, my spare roof-mounted Air Purifier arrived from the Philippines today. I bought it just for the plastic filter cover because the one I have currently installed was missing that piece. Planning on keeping the rest of the unit for spare parts in case I ever need it. Here's some pics of my air purifier now 100% complete:

    My OEM optional extra 'Burger Tray' arrived from overseas this morning. Took me ages to find one in plum to match the rest of my interior plastic. They're hard to find at the best of times, but getting one that was plum in colour was a mission. Got there in the end though :). Here's some photos - The first one being from the original sales brochure and the rest of the actual item:

    I actually bought a Big Mac yesterday. Shame It didn't arrive yesterday morning or I definitely would have taken a pic. Think I might get a Whopper from Burger King next time instead. I'll probably get a few strange looks from people in the car park wondering what the hell I'm doing taking a photo of a burger on my dashboard though [IMG]. Thanks man [IMG]

    Haha yeah that's true. My tinted windows will disguise me anyway :cool:

    Thanks man. Yeah there are little channels where the double sided tape goes. When I first installed it I didn't put any tape on, and when I went around a sharp corner it slid over to the driver's side, haha. So last night I put some really strong double sided tape on and needless to say, it ain't going anywhere now :D

    Here's a pic of the underside:

    Haha, you bet I would ;). The burger would be sitting on top of the wrapper however, the the greasiness would be minimal.

    This arrived today :D

    yeah, well watch out for the wrappers, because they tend to be greasy on the outside as well. The people who make the burgers wrap them, so the grease gets on the outside as well!

    Yeah really hope I win that one. Thanks for voting for me. Last time I checked I was neck and neck with FlawedLegacy. Need more votes! :D


    Good thinking. I bought one about an hour ago and fortunately the wrapper wasn't greasy. Speaking of which.....BK Triple Cheeseburger FTW! :D :D :D

    Haha yeah it works well. I reckon they should change the name of that burger from Triple Cheeseburger to Triple Bypass Burger, because my heart was working overtime after eating that :eek:
