    You should have removed the carpet to make sure it was clean underneath

    not bored, don't really even have time to be doing this...I just hate dirty cars...ugh, especially when lots of people will be looking at it the next day and might park next to a cleaner car.

    Mmm, Interior cleaning machine...that reminds me, i need to borrow a steam carpet cleaner from someone.

    lol, speaking of coke...girl at Mako's the other night was like, "Have you seen a marlboro lights pack anywhere? It has a gram of coke in it" Err, nope...sorry "oh, well that's ok...plenty more where it came from".

    i have not been motivated to do it for the last couple weeks...it's like you know it needs to be done but just the thought of all those little screws, bolts, and fasteners make you wanna go back in the house and stare at IA some more I went to Big Lots and got the ingredients to clean under the hood and door jambs and that got the ball rolling then browsed JTuned for a few minutes and then just had to be as clean as their feature rides

    I'd detail mine... but it's a Corolla. Detailing the interior of a two decade old car tends to just make things worse. Plus I have a god awful habit of loosing at least 1/4 of any bolts, or screws I take out. (this is why pieces of my interior are still missing). I usually just make sure there's nothing loose in the interior.
