Smile Carbon fiber brodie ****?

Anyone know where to get one of these? I looked all over the Porsche site but no luck. I thought that would be a nice little upgrade...

Any thoughts?

What's up with the younger generation these days?

I learned to drive back in the '60s and a brodie **** is not a gear shift ****! A brodie **** goes on the steering wheel and allows you to turn the wheel very quickly, which makes the car do a brodie.

BTW - I think a brodie ****, carbon fiber or otherwise, would look silly on a P-car.

We called them suicide *****.

Is that what the OP really is looking for?

We also called them spinners. I liked the metalflake ones with pics of strippers on them.

I'm glad someone finally realized what I meant. You think that would look too ghetto?

the ipod is mounted on a "L" bracket glued on the back of a clear case for the ipod. You can get those at home depot. They are the thinnest you can find but very sturdy. Then, just slide between the slots for the CD holder.
