I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Swap. That way you won't be frettin' when you're hanging a motor over your fresh paint, etc.

Swap is also your only major expense.

And make sure you have enough money to finish your car at one time, or you get shit like this:
