Boxes by the Front Door

For some reason, coming home and seeing boxes by the front door emblazoned with "Pelican Parts" always puts me in an especially good mood. Even when I know they contain insanely expensive Porsche parts.

The wife usually has a different view . . .

I like it too, but it's been a while.

Sadly the last two pelican boxes at my place have contained BMW parts....

I need to get some brake parts ordered though.

I'll need new rotors, wheel bearings, trans gaskets and seals.
