Yes you do. Otherwise you wouldn't have posted the pics of your vette for all to see. All of us know that not everyone is going to like what we did to our individual cars, but if you're going to post pics, you better be able to take the criticism along with the compliments. It's your car. If that's what you like, then . Although, there may have been a nicer way for Bret to get his opinion out.

Criticism is one thing, but juvenille personal attacks are another.

This is really not called for. It's the reason why I've never posted a pic of my car. It looks like you've spent TONS of money and time on your car to make it the way you want it. Anyone who uses the word "retard" has a lot of growing up to to.

I only posted "where is your air bag?" because it would suck to be in a accident without it. David

What? Why don't you just go kick the guy in the nuts? He has taken a lot of crap from many posters here, including myself. And I must say, he has taken it very well, right up until Bret called him a retard. I call that an unsolicited attack. Bret must know someone here because I have been banned for much, much less than that. I say give the guy a break.

No more airbag. Gotta admit, that does concern me, once I get this whole deal out of my system I'll probably put the stock wheel back on.

I think stock wheel with airbag would look better. I would get some gold inlay for the wheel though. That would set it off nicely.

I would also say that I would encourage you to post pics of your car. The vast majority of members here are no doubt like me and appreciate seeing everyones efforts no matter how small, the plainest Corvette is still miles ahead of most everything else on the road.

Also the majority of members here who do not like my style, still are very respectful, saying things like "it's not my tastes, but to each his own"

Thanks for the comments
