    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    So California is in another Earthquake cycle. Usually adjusts a few times and shuts the fuck up again, give it a year or three and all should be well. Then again it could just up and pull a Loma Prieta on you too, maybe come visit the real world. We have all the amenities at a lower price, and as a bonus there's less traffic.

    Well, if it helps - think of this... when Yellowstone's Super Volcano goes, all the quakes in CA won't amount to crap...

    any clue if the inevitable yellowstone eruption is going to hit your area or how long?
    the ash and shit is gonna hit my area in maybe 3 days I hear (estimated projections) SLC and perhaps Denver will be wiped away very quickly

    Will try this tomorrow. My instrument panel is scratched to hell. Did you apply any type of wax or seal after clearing it?

    headlight restoration kits usually come with a plastic polish in the box.. it works great on the cluster plastic. you can also just go buy plastic polish..


    or a new cluster lens can be had for 20-30 bucks i think

    Hmm. I need to be Indiana’s governor. We need a wall to keep Illinois people out.


    We have double the population you guys do. And I think that’s double too much

    I restored the cluster I put in the 5-Lug the same method you'd do with headlights or acrylics. I did Wetsand 400, 600, 800, 1000, 2500, 5000. I followed with rubbing compound, and then polishing compound. That lens had deep scratches though which is why I had to start at 400 grit.
