So this is my daughters' last year to race powderpuff derby forl Girl Scouts... She wanted to design a wedge that was tapered across the top( great ideal) Paint a bright metalic red and black( several wet sandings later and a good polish I am loving the color) She studied up on polishing the axles and wheel bore and they are smooth as glass. Used some Red rocket to finish it off with and we are on a roll(awesome) shaped shaved and polished the wheels.. this thing should be her best car yet....So why am I so distraught???? She wants to put boys pictures on the car ....eeeeew cooodies..... and they are like boy bandish...is there any kind of rehab or help for dad's?
 
Will a pic of my then five year old daughters car help? It's a giant step to let go and let the kids do their thing. My girls aren't to your's age yet.

You are lucky!
I still have sequins and glitter all over the rug from my granddaughters powder puff car build two years ago!
eeek
 
Yeah.... I guess you guys are right.. But man!!!-I am in no hurry to let her grow up... I think I would rather have the creative paint job or glitter all over the carpet before I would the little shirtless teenaged boys on a car.....Its a Father/Daughter outing - I say Dad's should get to pick the how it looks....or at least get to pick some other pic to put on the car....

That glitter can be a bearcat to clean off the track also.
 
Good luck!!! I'd tell her you don't know how to do that and give her some paint and say "have at it"

I have two boys so I'll have all the other worries! One wants Scooby doo and the other spiderman, oh and the wife wants clouds! I said Clouds???? WT??? So if you see any of those at the Mid-America you'll know who it is!

Clouds?? "ahh yes dear" and thanks for letting me order more axels and weights. Oh and all those tools and things on the bench, "oh ya I already had all of that!"
