todays ponderings..

well today woke up drove my car to work and low and behold the pad well there is no pad now its just metal from the remains of what was a brake is grinding the rotor.So i went down to my local napa (so helpful) and my brakes had a life time replacement..being the dumb @$$ i am i thought they would always replace them..no. So after getting pissed and acting like a little girl i went to advance got a set of brake pads and went and picked up my inner fender wells before i went home.Ok so the caliper wont come off the car..tried and tried..cried and tried..nothing...and also the inner fender wells dont fit worth a crap so i had to trim them once i got the in because the was hanging out the side..someone please give me a pick me up before i sell my honda and grow a mullet and buy the first 5.0 trunk car i see...

"Ok so the caliper wont come off the car..tried and tried..cried and tried..nothing."
