This is my policy for any relationship. no joint accounts, make sure the bills are paid and responsibilities are taken care of.

I freaking love joint accounts, but then again, my wife makes five times what I do.
I really need to go back to school.

Just looked at when it should arrive, aug15-20 coming from Japan. Can get the legit one directly from Japan for 98 dollars. Plus you by pass the middle man with like the 20 dollar mark up. Waiting on shipping sucks but at least I know no moisture will get in.

This is how I am with my wife. I pay most of the bills because I make more, but as far as free extra cash goes, we have the same.

I feel bad for some of those guys whose entire paycheck goes into a joint account, the wife takes 95% and gives them $100 a week or some stupid shit like that.

My "Best Wife Ever Story" : I was riding my motorcycle to work and she said "what type of a sports car would you drive if you weren't riding a motorcycle?" ... so I went out and order the ordered the FR-S.

CharlieChaos · 07-26-2013, 01:40 PM

My wife was very pissed off I bought the FRS and told me she could have dealt with the WRX since it was a 4 door. That being said she bought me a bunch of the JPM Coach interior pieces anyway lol.

My last car I came home one day and she had a forum opened and said are those what you were looking for? I said yes and she said happy birthday now we need to drive to NY to pick up your new hood and various other parts

Update from Japan, part shipped yesterday and should arrive in the US within 7 days. I ordered them off eBay through a Toyota dealer in Japan. I paid 98 dollars and free shipping. These are OEM so no moisture problem should occur like if you go through helix. The American supplier charges more for these through eBay but you get them a week earlier but not a dealer. I prefer to go as closely to the manufacturing as possible which seems to avoid most problems not to mentoring save money to spend on stuff like the 86 key change she ordered for me at the same time.

I think my wife is into a mod kick now, today we were driving and she says I'm really getting tired of those yellow running lights. Lets replace them with led's. So within a few days ill be ordering the led's.

Frstorm · 07-27-2013, 07:31 PM

Sorry for a third post but went to order just the running led's and wife was like where they have a package for basically every led light for 160 why don't you just do that. SCORE.

My wife loves my cars. I wanted a new car since my project car was my daily, and I'm sure a lot of you know that's a pain. Everytime you fix something, something else goes. So went I went about researching cars and debating on selling my Civic or not, she said I couldn't sell my current car since it meant so much to me. Sniff... Love this girl.

Also helps that she likes cars too.... She was with me for every show I entered when the Civic was sponsored. Had to make a deal with her though.

Next car we get would be hers... No soccer mom vans though. She would like a G35 coupe, but would settle on the sedan since you can get AWD on it and its more practical since my two cars have basically no backseats. BUT she said she could also settle on WRX/STi.....lol, nice.

Update: Side markers actually arrived today two weeks ahead of eta and my led lights came in today will install this weekend and post pictures
