Journal section

>Like this< It'll give people a place to show off their cars, stuff they've done, pics, wish list, etc. People can have a chronological list of mods and what not that they can comment on. This can help others decide on getting different things and it will help people keep track of what they've done to their car. I personally keep a journal of things I've done to my car but others may not.

Edit: I think the Journal section should go under the "EvoM Forums"section. Maybe under "Service, Parts & Tuning Review". I know we have a registry section but I think we need something more.

Ummm....I'm not seeing a real demand for this based upon the lack of replies for over a month now.
