What have you done to your P5 today?

Chris asked "what area of Canada are you from?".....Mark said "duh check out his Avatar". Chris then proceeded to look lazy b/c Brian pulled the ole switcharoo (allegedly) and added his location.
 
weather discussion on top of page 151.. I asked where in canada brian was.. then mark told me to check under his avatar, where it now lists his location but didn't at the time. profile must have been updated.

edit: beat to the punch.

I used the P5 to run over my daughters scooter recently, the scooter won.
Bulb on the garage door opener burned out the other day and she left her scooter in the middle of the garage. I got home late, it was dark and I always back in so I didn't se it lying on the floor. Scrape, thunk. I have a nice mark on the bumper. Straightened out the handle bars on the scooter and it's good to go.
Gotta love your kids!

haha...mine are grown now, but i remember those days....i can't recall home many toys i ran over or back into!! i'll never for get the day my son was in the garage, i drive in and he jumps up on the hood of my 88 maxima...big dent in the hood, he was like 13...oh well..he never attempted that again!
 
Awesome sun all day long on the Cape today. In other news... I will be driving the P5 more since I snapped the bottom strut bolt in my wifes car. Doh! Dang ol' rusted suckers. Now it will need to be drilled out. Oh well.
 
Applied the vinyl overlays from Blue Batmobile tonight after dinner. And as the pics will show I had a little help from my pit crew. :)

The before and after...

The silver bulb idea will look nice. I just have 24LED clusters in each so it's basically the same effect because the leds and their housing is clear.
 
Thanks for the input. I did ponder the chrome bulbs and the clear leds but decided to go with something a little different. Thought they would be a nice touch with the black alteezas.
 
Pics of the new(used) battery tie down and oil cap. Nice and straight, right Mark? ;) Pardon the dirty engine bay.
