Economy is killing me. MS Live.com cashback saves my ****.

I just got f-sport springs for 190 shipped from Westminster's ebay store using the 25% live.com cash back.

If anybody else wants stuff... now is a great time to buy.

I sold my car that actually had useful mods available and bought an IS350 :P

Only thing left I really want to do eventually is lighter wheels, but I can't seem to find any I like (nice light weight 18" 5 spokes WITHOUT those stupid looking rivet bolts all around the rim)

The cashback is indeed back. It's at 8% right now. You can always go here to check: http://www.abevoelker.com/livesearch/

The site supposedly emails you when it gets over your set amount. Although I had set it up a while ago, and it never emailed me... So that feature may be broken.

No more mods until a payraise or a hefty bonus. Guess I'll just have to wait on my wheels and coils.

Hm I'd say it's stopped me for some time, but in the next four months I'm looking forward to getting some D2 Coils, F-Sport sways, and maybe an exhaust.
