i wish i would have know that :( i just used 88cent walmart primer so now i have to redoit?Quote:

Dude the kids trying, and he's learning a lot. It really seems like you got on this thread just to make fun of him. Just leave him alone, if you don't like him, just don't deal with him.
Hey I used to have CDROM drive as my CD player back when I first got my car!
We make do with what we have,I remember the days when I had very little money and had to make do with whatever I had laying around to fix my car up.
Good for CAH for trying to get his car done.
Yeah, your right... I get on his threads when I want a good laugh.. Because it is quite entertaining.Quote:
