| I love the black head light pockets. I wish my PO didn't get rid of them when he painted the car. |

Now is that a proper comment from a "mature responsible adult" like yourself?????

Looks really good. Where did you find the vinyl to put in there? I've been toying with trying to mask mine off to paint it, but can't seem to get the line just right. _________________ 92 Camaro

Just in case it was not clear, I really like the look of your mod. The smarmy comment was for some of your mouthy brethren .

I myself prefer to call it "outspoken"
And I agree totally, the mod looks great. Mine are black from the factory, but I really like the way you did it. _________________ Member of the "Elite T56 Club" , big brake club, and "burgundy" (not red or maroon) car owner.

| no it doesnt really help the headlights at all, thats wierd cause i never use my high beams, i can drive around all night wit my lows and can see fine. and the red cans are primer, the actual paint is in the cans with black lids, i went to the LDI store on center st. to buy them, expensive cans but worth it |

| uh i was sorta drunk when i posted didnt realize those were primer cans at the time...they dont really look nothing like the color of my car lol...yeah i think i have a bad low beam relay although i have no clue where it is...i do know though that i just broke my headlight switch bracket last night and when i go to turn off the headlights i can get the headlights off but not the parking lights without taking the plate off and using a long screw driver to hold it while i push it in...guess i need to make a junkyard run now for the little plastic screw bushing that holds it in place...Looks really good though i think ill wait to do that till after i get new rims one day...lol |
