SO, the other day, i was adjusting my projectors (at least trying to), to make the cut off more USDM friendly... well, i adjusted the driver side too far, and the thing popped out of the thing, and the projector housing went way off to the side... and broke the HID bulb... great...

so i pulled the head light out (kind of a bitch on a R32) popped the thing back in the thing (think corner lights on a S14)... and put in my new 6000K HID bulbs...



had some extra "hyper white" LED's laying around from my cluster install, so i stuck them in the "fog lights"...





oh, and it turns out the JDM cutoff is actually a metal plate inside the projector housing... when i pull the lenses off to paint the chrome housings black, i'll prob find a way to get that out, and grind it down so i have a nice flat cutoff all the way across my light pattern...

now I'm not driving at night with nothing but high beams, super blinding oncoming traffic with the JDM fluting pattern...

next up, pulling the bumper off to paint the FMIC... (it's stained, so no cleaning), so I'm just gonna get some rattle can aluminum and spray it down...


Also, Sullivanracing06 gave me a hand flushing my radiatior, drilling and tapping my water neck so i could FINALLY have my water temp gauge hooked up... dude does quick, and efficent work.. def know's his shit.... then found out my motor has a Nismo thermostat, woot! i was gonna buy one, but now, not so much!

will most likely be using him as a back up mechanic when i'm feeling lazy and don't want to do work... that's saying a lot, as the only one who has touched any of my cars is Martin, and he did the tuning...

recommend him to anyone as well...


slowly but surely, she's getting there...
