I am lmao just picturing this, and Ive seen my share of goofy things in the Middle East :-)

Good time to stop, grab the wash mitts and wash the car, and re-apply when it stops raining.

Oh and Clever, sorry about dropping the ball with regards to Bahrain... things got ugly and work was really demanding
No worries mate, maybe we can still figure out a trip for the future when things aren't so hectic! Pretty hectic on my side too ATM!

But it's hard to write "tits or bust" in soap.

And I'd rather take pics of bare breasts than a soapy car. Just sayin'.

OK, so I've got some clear vinyl material I can use as a clear bra for the front of my car. The other option I just came up with would be to wrap the car in blue painter's tape, then make an orange stripe down the middle and go for the Gulf-liveried look I've always thought was awesome.

Thoughts? Should I keep it stealthy and stock looking or go for something wild and disposable that I've always wanted to try?
