And she still hasn't noticed!

Fitted my smoked rear lights last week and wondered how long it'd be before my wife noticed them so haven't told her. We've been out in the car a good few times, walked up to it from the back, the back faces the front door when it's parked at night and she passes it every morning, we've even put shopping in the boot! Nothing, not even a second glance, no "how much did those cost?", nothing!

So the next time I can't find something in the house and she starts on with the "you never look properly" malarkey, boy have I got some ammo!

She may be saving it up like my mrs - she notices EVERYTHING, then saves it all in her woman log ready to fire back! Had the straights on mine for a few weeks, when I asked if she'd noticed she said yes but decided not to comment: "wheels are wheels" !!!!

I fitted a TF steering wheel, wood effect, in mine and a TF rear view mirror, also a TF mirror in her ZR160. Has she noticed ????? That's at least four years ago!!!!! But she's bloody good at noticing when I've had too much Red vino.Doh!!!!

My ex was like that, i could spend as much money on my old car as i liked, never told her, and she would never notice. Her knowledge of cars extends to as much as the colour of the car. Thats it.
