Default My Official Welcome!!!!!!!!!
Well some of you know what I was going through from my last post, But I am please to say everything worked out. My wife got her new car, a 2005 Accura TL, beautiful car with full navi, and me, well I got my C5, it's Silver with a six speed, chrome wheels, 12 disk CD changer, all the goodies. Now this weekend is going to be very busy. I ordered over $600 dollars worth of stuff to make the car look better, plus I'm going over Myvettedreams (Dave's) house and were going to lower it and get the windows tinted, life's good. Anyway I will post some before and after pics when I'm done. Welcome everyone, I'm finally onboard.
