grrr...lets try that again shall we?

Note the ghetto-ass $2 Home Depot custom grille...


Note the ghetto-ass $2 Home Depot clear side markers...


Note the Honda in the background. My mom has no taste in vehicles...


Note the really expensive Hella tails (not from Home Depot)...


Also take note of the h u g e gap between the rubber and the fenders. John1552 - Ill be speaking to you about that after I get back from Costa Rica...

Thats all for now volks.

I made the clear side marker lenses out of that overhead lighting panel material. The kind you see in kitchens and bathrooms. Up close theyre not as slick as the OEM amber lenses but from more than four feet they look great. Ive got orange bulbs inside the lens housing so theyre still legal (at night).
