    For the license plate??

    Idk. Just some small earth magnets we had in the shop. We have a shit load of them. Got them from a box or something that was shipped.

    That's cause the paint isn't cured lol

    You don't need super beefy magnets. Just a few good ones. Then just put them on the bumper and then a few on the outside of the plate too. So the plate is inbetween the magnets.

    Will only need like 8 smaller magnets. 2 each corner.

    Yeah I was talking about the license plate. It's not like the paint chipped. Just a light scratch because the magnet has a metal ring around it that dug in. Ill just get cheaper and not so strong magnets :laugh:.

    No way in hell could I dish up the 5 grand in the next 2 years for that. It would be nice, but no way I could do it.

    Why cali? Got something line up? North or south?

    I know I am over exaggerating but that's what I do haha. Ill be trying to score a job up in Alaska if Wyoming is a bust. My sister has sent me a few places looking for wildlife majors so that's nice. I just don't want to be the college graduate that goes home and stays there for a year looking for work. So the first job offer I get Ill be packing the truck and moving on.

    I'd stay home :p I love hanging out with my family though.

    And I just don't make any money in St. Louis at all so powell is about my only option haha other then going to the slope again..but I'd rather go camping in wyo one last full summer.

    I have nothing lined up. But I have contacts. And a free place to live possibly for a while in down town LA. Try and get a job at Fox or Capitol records or Atlantic records..won't be easy. But it'll have to work.

    Other option is Seattle. But I have no connections there in the business like I do in LA.
