    here’s a little demonstration on how to clear up your foggy headlights for about $5 bucks. Grab some Off bug spray. I renamed it and spray it at the other guys in the shop when they ask to borrow something repeatedly. Also for infringement rights? Lol

    PSA when rotating tires.

    if your wheels and hubs look like this, please take the time to chisel/sand and remove the corrosion from your hubs and rims. This can cause an uneven surface for your rim to the hub. It can and I've seen wheels fall off because of this. This car I worked on today had one rim with only 2 lug...
