Yeah, this guy had stickers galore all over the car. I'm still in the process of removing them. Those will be be removed, as they're just black tape he cut out to the shape of the letters, then put on the lense.

"Thela Hun Ginjeet is a single by the band King Crimson, released in 1981. Its tracks are from the album Discipline (1981). The song name is an anagram of "heat in the jungle", which is a reference to crime in the city. (The term "heat" is American slang for firearms or for police.)

While most of the instruments are in 4/4 time, Robert Fripp's electric guitar plays in 7/8 time during part of the song, creating an unusual effect. In the middle of the song, voice recordings are heard. Adrian Belew talks about his experiences with London Rastafarians and the police, while he was trying to get voice recordings for the song (Adrian Belew's blog entry about this event)."

Wow...you really do learn somethin' every single day;-)

I also read it was some bad British pick-up line.

Either way...it had to go.

looks great. If your budget is tight you may want to stick with 17" as the tires are cheaper.

The tires on the D90s are good enough to last through next year. Once I swap over to 17s I'll probably keep the D90s and put true winter tires on them. (This is what we do with all of our other cars.) I really don't like 18s on a 964 (at least not in wheels I can afford). But that's just personal preference. Plus if this is going to be anything close to a daily driver, I don't need the harsh ride of 18s.
