Dropped $300 today

Ahhhh.... What a day. - $300 for me. Got a wheel alignment and camber adjustment this morning and a DEI alarm in the afternoon (hopefully that will prevent my wheels from getting stolen once I get them). Finally a freebee: pinstripe removal. All in all, a productive Monday for me.

Now I gotta go work my *** off tomorrow to get some of it back [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]

The alarm is pretty damn nice, but I think I'm going to add a tilt sensor thingy depending on the price. Anyone know how much one is?

If someone really wanted to steal your rims they'd do it no matter how good your alarm was. But i'd suggest getting an alarm with a pager on it, that way you KNOW when it's going off. Most people don't even pay attention anymore. Then when you hear it run out with two machettis!

Pagers are not a good idea. Last year my brothers friends car was getting jacked at a mall. He had a pager and went running out to catch the guy. When he walked up to the guy, the dude just turned around and blew him away. It's not worth losing your life over your car. If someone steals it, thats what insurance is for.
