Umm, don't know if anyone else has pointed it out but you appear to have a dog attached to your damper!!
Seriously though, to convince the minister of war/finance that you need extra funds..use this line..
"Dear, it's because I love you (put some feeling into that) and I want you to be safe when you're driving and if I raise her 2inches as I'd feel more comfortable that you'd be even safer"
Let me know if it works!!!
