light bar is in the back of the fofo for now. not sure whats going on with it. i might try to get it to mount better but that wont be until summer. and just keep an eye open. if you have an android phone you can set up the CL app to notify you when i new posting comes up with your keywords

Saw those wheels once for $50 with no tires in flat black. Woulda got em but I'm still not sure about them. I think I would rather have my car lowered with black eaps... but then I saw that pic on the last page, and I'm not sure anymore. I know some are on the local CL now (link in FX CL thread).

I meant are the housings holding up wit that heat. I had a heated thread about hids in these ebay projectors.
nope. light throw isnt the greatest but its better than stock. and the housings take HIDs fine. nothings going to melt with a 35w HID kit

Of course he doesn't have the problem with the lights. Just everyone in front of him does. lol Are you going to make your car into a disco ball this time?
installed underglow yesterday soooo yes lol
So,how much weigth was actualyl shaved from the stock weight? Any 1/4 mile numbers to see how much the weight drop made?
no i didnt do it for speed. the car has never been on a 1/4 and has only been down the track 3 times at FF09. dont remember my times tho as it doesnt matter to me. the car was gutted for MPG and that it has helped
