Locost Bling!
After being able to pluck up enough courage to ask out the girl i like, and only see twice a year, i was feeling a bit low today so wasted a few hours
in the garage doing this:
Before
After
Before fitting
After fitting
Its not perfect but its much better than before 
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

It's what alcohol was invented for, one of the two of you (or both - at the same time) need to drink some/lots.

I once spent about 18 months plucking up the courage to ask out my boss's secretary and ued every excuse in the book to get her to help me out
with bits of project support work etc.
When I eventually asked her out she jumped at the chance, then changed her mind a couple of days later on the basis that it'd weird because we
did so much work together. There's a bit of irony there...
So, the moral of the story is don't hang around because you'l only trip yourself up - she can only say yes or no and neither of those
words will kill you.

This, a lot. Really hard.
Ask her, get it done with, stop polishing random bits of metal.
Nice work though

Be old skool.
Pen and paper. Something rather comforting about a proper hand written letter.
Added bonus is that you take your time, write what you want and once posted thers no going back.
Just my 2p worth.

Take an old man's advice (turned 60 the other day ) - the only way you will ever get to take her out is to ask her - chances are she's
hoping you will - if she says "yes" that's great - if she says "no" it's her loss and you get to choose someone
else. Ask your friend for her contact details and write, phone or use whatever other form of communication you choose, but ASK HER.
A "no" doesn't say anything about you only her - all it says is that either she isn't able to go out with you or that she has
bad taste in men 
Remember your car can only take so much bling before it looks chav - so ask her soon otherwise you might ruin your car in the next year or two by
overdoing things.

No, she may just appreciate that a 7 esque car should really weigh less than a ton and a half
Ask her, you know it makes sense!

Years ago - I had the same fancied a girl and couldn;t realy get the courage to ask her out...... ended up not and still think now what if.
Whats the worst that can happen - NO then your low for a day or too and end up polishing the rocker cover. Or YES and could have a bit of fun for a
day or too (or longer).
If you hold out much longer you'll fall into the stalker category.
Get your friend of a friend to get in touch and get her number use the excuse that you've lost it. A slap in the face only hurts for a minute
or too.
Scot's do it better in Kilts.

hang on lads....
i've had an idea.
she's a sensitive soul, heck she plays the violin and she plays her violin at charity gigs.
so.....
organise a charity event, ask your mate, "oh by the way whos that violin girls you get to play at your events...."
then get her number call her, chat etc.
A. you'll have her number
b. know where she lives too if you are a bit creative
c. you can have lots of nice chats on the phone prior to event, ask her advice about the event etc
d. (Most importantly) She'll think you're an equally caring soul for organising such an event and having a cause dear to to your heart.
e. arrange an after event drink/meal for all those that helped out/played violin. (!)
bingo excellent opp for lengthy, worthy chats over bottles of guilt free wine.
excellent opp for lines such as:
" in the end we're put on this earth to help one another...."
she'll be tuning your stradivarius before you know it.
