      New shoes

      Finally convinced the wife to let me get some new shoes. Let me know what you think...

      They are 17" Verde Protocol wheels with Yokohama Parada Spec II in 205/40/17 tires




      and I know I know the car is filthy and I need to mow the grass...lol

      The headlights are going to be blacked out and some leds added this week. Then, I don't know.....I know I still want to add a short shifter, custom paint the hood and front bumper, cai, new seats, steering wheel, speakers.......the list goes on and on.

      What a HUGE difference it makes when the UGLY orange is gone from the front headlights:


      I didn't realize how much I hated that orange reflector. I think I might have been happy even with all the chrome minus the orange reflector. Anyways, I'll get some better pictures up tomorrow when it stops raining.

      I really don't care if it's legal or not. Most cops have better things to do then pull you over for something like that. I don't run a front license plate either. Oh well, it's in the front of my car if I do get pulled over.

      Not sure on the legal end but I do see the reason for it. Makes your car a lot more noticeable to other drivers. Especially when backing up. I use the reflection from the headlights of the car behind me to gauge my distance. I'm not sure how noticeable yours would be since they are blacked out. I'm not saying do or don't, but something to keep in mind.

      Orr your talking about the diffuser (lens over the bulb) in wich case my post makes absolutely no sense and can be ignored, sort of.

      I will think of a better signature later.
