lol sure i'll do it, only takes like 40 mines. it takes me longer than jiffy lube cuz i gotta get the car on the stands (should be easy since ur car isn't lowered) and then make sure i DON'T spill oil everywhere in the engine bay taking out the filter and filling oil like the idiots at some dealerships and places.

if anyone else needs their oil changed we could set up a mini meet. wher eu can all dirnk cola while u watch me change ur guy's oil lol.

Those are some serious PS skills you got!!
I'm VERY impressed!!
I don't think I'd have the patience to sit there and do that.
I'd just draw all over the picture w/ the clone tools and just make 3 porsche's appear
