Please tell me we aren't the only ones who do this... 🤦‍♂️

You know those late-night Facebook Marketplace purchases that seem like a fantastic idea at 2 AM? Well, Wes bought a massive 65-inch carbon fiber wing meant for a Golf GTI... and we decided to bolt it straight onto his Hyundai Veloster.

We had no plan, the wrong hardware, and had to resort to 200lb gas struts just to hold the thing together. The full video of this complete DIY disaster is officially live on YouTube. Watch us take a step bit to the hatchback and question all of our life choices! 😂

People think trust is about keeping secrets. Or catching you when you fall backwards.

But real trust? It’s much heavier than that. It’s the absolute willingness to give up control of the things you value most.

The ultimate proof isn't a promise. It’s tossing over the keys... sliding into the passenger seat of your own car... and watching your friend drop the hammer, driving it like their name is on the title.

That. Is. Trust. 🤝🚗💨

That feeling when Ven asked if I wanted to drive his 718... 😎🔑

As a thank you for letting him sling my Challenger around, he returned the favor with his 2022 Porsche 718 Spyder. You already know I had to channel my inner Han for this one. 🏎️💨

Porsche has perfected the art of charging more to put less in a car. Ven is trying to convince me that manually taking the top down on his 2022 718 Spyder is all about "the experience". I guess doing all these mechanical things yourself builds character, right?
