Default Birthday Present

Hey all.

Well, I had to recently have some work done on my '99 FRC, as some insensitive raccoon attacked my baby on the highway. While the work was being done I had them retrieve the build sheet.

Anyway, and now this is exciting, my Baby's 10th birthday is coming up on January 08, 2009 at 05:34:28 (Bowling Green time).

What should I get her? I already got her new shoes with shiny wheels, a little suspension tuck, a heads up display and some pointy fog lamps.

Any suggestions?

Shhhhhhh...it's gonna be a surprise!

JP

I agree with the tint if not done already! Or you could go all out and buy her some headers, that would show her you really are committed to the relationship.

Tint sounds good!

Can anyone direct me to a quality tint shop in the San Francisco Bay, Sacramento or Redding, CA areas?

I know that there has been some discussion with the rear window "dots", so has anyone has this done to perfection? (Only the best for my Baby!)
