Chipped Paint + Rust

I've heard about the fiberglass pencil, but none of the auto parts stores here carry it. EDIT: For future reference, I couldn't find it at any auto parts stores, but ended up picking one up at Fry's.

Chipped Paint + Rust

So I've gotten a handful of paint chips on my car from pebbles, etc. so I bought some touch-up paint to fix them. The problem is one of them has gone down to the metal, and the metal is already rusting. I'm looking to get the rust out before I repaint, but I've gotten pretty varying advice on...

Suggest a new car under $30,000 or around $300/m

I'm looking at approximately the same price range, so here are my thoughts on some cars I've been looking at: Audi A3/VW GTI: Practically the same car, just paying for luxury with the Audi. Decent power/handling, but I've have minor concerns about reliability. The DSG transmission is...

Xbox 360 still hard to find?

360's are in stock in most areas now. If you happen to be in one of the few places it isn't, Best Buy has the premium system (unbundled) for sale on their website.

Going to L.A. (Los Angeles) this weekend

Just so you know, UCLA's on spring break this week, so it may not be quite as rowdy as you'd like. To be honest, most sports bars in LA will probably be filled with bruin fans, or at very least people masquerading as bruin fans. Best bet for parking might be the garage a block away on Broxton...

Going to L.A. (Los Angeles) this weekend

Maloney's is in Westwood at Gayley and Weyburn. I've never been there for a game, but some people complain that it's usually too dark and too loud (music). Don't know what you're looking for, but just wanted to give you a heads-up.

Going to L.A. (Los Angeles) this weekend

3rd street isn't particularly great for "going out", as it's fairly family oriented. A better bet would be Main street, which is just a couple blocks away. 3rd street might be good for watching the game though (Hooters/Yankee Doodle/etc).

Anyone live in or near LA CA

I find that people either love LA or hate it, with not much in the middle. I, like the poor chump above, used to live in Fresno. Most of my friends left to either San Francisco or LA, and many of them love one and hate the other. As far as rent goes, it varies a lot depending on where you...

Got rear-ended yesterday by a girl who doesn't have insurance

It's possible for your premium to increase because insurance companies don't like paying money, at-fault or not. A buddy of mine was in a similar situation, from the other end. Got in an accident the same day he bought the car. Luckily the other guy let him settle privately. At the same...

Why don't more of our armed forces use silencers?

Cost for one. Suppressors are fairly expensive, and some wear down so they need to be replaced after a number of rounds. Also, as Feldenak pointed out, supressors are generally used with subsonic ammunition, which is also more expensive. Two, the scenario you described isn't what the...

question for snowboarders

Actually, ideal board length is determined more by your weight, and not your height. However, most people are fairly proportional, so it's a decent rule of thumb. But also beyond that, a longer board might be harder to control, but will probably give you better speed.

I'm wondering what exactly you're looking for. You mentioned smaller/lighter, 9mm, and price. Which of these is most important to you? As far as size goes, you're probably not going to find anything much smaller than a Glock 27 in a 9mm. The Glock 26 is about the same size as the 27, but you...

HOT: Authentic Hockey Jerseys $9.99 (normally $199) Pittsburg Penguins, Phoniex Coyotes, Florida Panthers + more

Exactly what I needed too, since I was in the market for a hockey jersey, and the Penguins happen to be my team. Unfortunately, I didn't see this until Sunday, when it was too late. :( I guess if anyone picked up a large Penguins jersey and are willing to sell, let me know.

Best sub-$300 handgun/pistol

If it's primarily for home defense, I'd agree with the shotgun suggestion for the reasons MooseKnuckle gave. If you're set on a pistol, I'd suggest a revolver. While I prefer an auto, most of my shooting is recreational. For defense purposes, a revolver might be better because of higher...

snowboarding gear recommendations

People use generally use this as a rule of thumb. The problem is, a board won't handle the same way for two people of the same height, but 80 pounds apart. Again, there's variation among board manufacturers, and within a single manufacturer, depending on the style of the board. For a freeride...

snowboarding gear recommendations

Don't know of any websites, but boot size is obviously related to foot size. It's a good idea to try some on before buying, because like street shoes, sizing can vary by brand. Your toes should barely touch the front of the boot with a little room to wiggle, and your heels shouldn't move when...
