The verts black belts are faded from the sun, so wondering if you can put them in a bucket of t shirt dye and let them soak? Not sure what that would do to the buckles, so would need to wrap them in plastic or something?

Last year I bought a new lift from Harbor Freight for my motorcycle. I don't have the greatest faith in a lot of products from them but I thought I would try this one.

Birthdays are still a big deal for two year olds. Turns out she’s a real motor head, loves cars and tractors.
