How did you do that? Great idea...

Start a new thread and show/tell us what you did - I'm sure quite a few people would be interested.

haha to my defense, all three parking spots on that section is reserved for our company employees 🥸. The guy next to the targa drives a f150 so we’re just giving him plenty of room haha
