These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

20 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 4Original post

Attach them with a little duct tape and they will be BEAUTY!

Needs a 1980's paint splatter effect in neon colors.

OMG that is beautiful. Maybe some pin striping around it too!!!!!

POST 12Original post

POST 16Original post

Great idea!, if I had two more letters I could rearrange them and stick them on the trunk of my wifeys beat up old 2.5 ...HORSE C_ _P.

POST 17Original post

GREAT comments. You were just kidding, right???

POST 18Original post

There's a "you might be a redneck" joke in there somewhere. It would look best with peeling purple window tint and a windshield banner that says Make You Want It!

POST 19Original post

Not quite, as nobody has mentioned the requisite potato gun yet. Don't worry, I'll bring mine!

POST 20 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 447149

I've made a sweet potato gun! It had a big, 3" diameter chamber with a twist sparker from an old Coleman camp stove / light. I never laughed so hard as the potato screamed out of sight entirely. Should I try the PORSCHE letters on the door down low to see if they look any better there? Maybe on the little wind screen between the seats facing backwards so people don't think it's a Boxster Ferrari?
