Just tell her the suspension kit is a different "outfit" for your camaro.

its just one of those things about women.


quick question tho, are you present when she is buying the purses and shoes?
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. If I am with her, I do give her he'll about buying stuff.

But I still get the "well my shoes are only $70 or whatever and your suspension costs $800."

Ugh! It's frustrating.

So, I took some of your advice and went ahead and ordered the kit; not going to tell her until she either sees the account, the box at the house or me installing it. Either way, I will catch major hell.

I cant really go near this as well bc i am not married, nor do i have a gf besides my car , some days i really wish i wasnt so shy, not as bad as i use to be though but cars allow me to be loud (outgoing) when im usually not. Some comments about my car and the recent purchase i made are," buy your toys now, wont be able to do that when your married ". Are they right, who knows, we will see

I gave my wife a CAI, exhaust, and tune on her escalade for Valentine's day and she LOVED it. I guess I'm lucky that way.

That's why I don't bitch to wife about buying 500 pairs of shoes and 200 purses. She don't tell me when she's buying that crap so I don't tell her when I'm buying cars, parts, tools ,guns or what ever. Why tell her about buying a sway bar upgrade or any other after market part for that matter. She wouldn't know the difference anyhow. I just buy it and wait for her to say something. Then I bring up the 500 pairs of shoes and 200 purses ,and that ends the story right there. Then everyone is happy.

It's all about compromise. If you're giving into her "wants" she's gotta do the same. If not. You got a problem my friend.

tell her you are making payments of $25.00 per month,so your not spending that much at one time.
ask her how much she spends a month.she is probably looking for a new bathing suit right now.
or you can be like me.i do it and just don't tell her.
