Hey Joey, out of curiosity what CravenSpeed mount did you get? I ended up getting the universal (scissor) mount for my Samsung Galaxy S and so far it's holding up well. But your comment got me a tad worried since I've only had this mount for 2 weeks and I'm already being a little rough with it.
Also, this way I can run both the AP and my phone at the same time.

I made an Ipod holder that I can reach now.. Turned down a piece of aluminum to fit in the left cup holder and cut a dome on top then polished it. I cut the arm off the worthless Ipod holder my wife bought me and drilled a hole in the aluminum part. The polished metal goes well with the chrome bezels I have. pic..

Used some rubbing compound to take off some overspray or tree sap I had on my windshield, and also to try to remove a couple of scratches I put on the windshield when I tried removing the overspray with a razor the other day.
With the rubbing compound I managed to get rid of the overspray but the scratches wouldn't come out.

Brought my very pregnant wife home from the hospital! Should have a baby girl here within a week.
Side note: the sport seats in my CMS are currently the only seats she is comfortable in. I'll find her just sitting in my car using the iPad every once in a while

Made checkered style mirrors using vinyl i brought from rvinyl.com...i think they turned out pretty good...match with the wheels. I straightened out the uneven pieces to make them look like OEM covers.
Check out the instructional video i made: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQ6m0M-kG18

It's only 103.6º in SoPho (measured at Ow-my-tookus) at 3:46 PM, and, thankfully, not likely to go up much more. I like it when we don't hit our target temps in the summer....

Shaved the E, R, and S off the boot. Now it's a "COOP". 
Once it cools off a bit (it's 103.6º
right now, which is a bit warm even in the shade) I will likely clean the back of the S and stick it on my intercooler cover, to spice things up a bit under the bonnet.

Hey, GeekGuy, do I detect a spec of dirt under the left headlight? I think you're slipping.

They wouldn't be so BAD if they'd hire people who actually wanted to give their Customers a Little Customer Service!! We won't be going back to our Vancouver, WA Five Guys!!
