Looks normal to me; with the left side being lower and having the step up to the right side.

however; if you're driving down the street and you're illuminating street signs; you're pointed too far up! and should adjust them down.
there is a star spindle that you use to adjust the head lights. they are located near each respecting headlight in the fender.
a phillips head screwdriver is used to make the adjustments via star spindle.

hmmm what to get my brother?? turning 30 tommorow; married with a kid (he doesnt want anymore family,baby gift thats all he has been getting lately he said)

Tech geek and a gamer but not a digital camera guy and he is lazy as fuck,...looking to spend around $250-$300.. going to buy something before we go out for dinner tommorow any suggestions??


Serious answers please!! if not move along lol Unless Joe is willing to make me a penis 30th happy bday card hahaha

Mr. NC

Gaming keyboard/mouse/headset? Gamers love that shit.

WoW points card...SC2 game....lol

He lazy? fucking give him a gym membership, don't make him into a basement dweller lol.

apinwp09GBTSX

LOLOL gamer but he is in shape; he is a physical therapist, he works out at the hospital!!!... he got all that he builts a new comp every two years and its completely top of the line --- I've owned the same Mac for 7 years now!!


Lazy in a sense that when he gets home from work this dude just flops down and just plays vid games--- he pays the baby sitter to stay even though he is home; pays an extra $50 for a restaurant that doesnt deliver to bring food to his place that's only a block a way from his house

Mr. NC

Ahhhh lol, how bout collectible action figures?Like a Kaws?

My fave

ssjoeboe9

lmfao you should have requested this a week ago lol. I could have made him one.... However.... I can present to you... my best work of art I have ever created!!

TSXy Luster

What kind of tech geek? Any favorite tv show, movie, following, game universe, OS, etc...?
What about memorabilia? You could do an IOU if you need to have it shipped.
If he likes to be in the kitchen and TMNT, you can get him this: http://www.etsy.com/listing/12946993...op_home_active

oh and WTF waiting until the day of to get your brother his present?!

apinwp09GBTSX

JOE MAKE IT HAPPEN LOL!!!! completely forgot it was his bday till I heard in the news about the columbine shooting anniversary -- April 20!! sucks to remember it like that but thats how I remembered-- also Hitler's bday and 4/20...


OMG thanks N.C. fucking geeky ass action figures he has Gundams in his gameroom -- bought him a $400 one like 2 years ago--- he loves that shit!!!

...Lol at the Apron this dude knows how to cook eggs in the microwave thats it


LIKE GEEEKY!! Tech and this dude fucking read game of thrones who does that -- you know the type goes in the movies says book was way better or go sees a superhero movie and right away tells you whats wrong with it

Mr. NC

^ Gundams are the SHIT, plastic cocaine yo lololololol, other art is cool too?

He's that kinda geek eh...but married with a child and is fit....this man succeeded in the social ladder of life HAHAHAHA

TSXy Luster

oh man....... I could've helped you out so much with ideas if you said this more than ONE day before lol. Hmm...... tough to find something in less than a day and at a store.

He prob has all the GOT books already, you could buy him some Gundam Unicorn stuff like the OVA Blu-Rays, or new figures. Heck, you could buy him a Blu-Ray/DVD set of something he loves that he doesn't have.

Tell him you'll put a downpayment on a 3D printer for him?

..... if you are really desperate, you can go to a Kinkos or Staples and print this out full size for him: http://img.gawkerassets.com/img/18l2...g/original.jpg

to everything said ^^

apinwp09GBTSX

Asian Power dude!!! he never got into cars though which is sad he buys subaru imprezas and beats it and just gets a new generation...

Wife is a teacher and I think they get a long cuz he's like a high school kid.... ever seen a grown man bitch so much cuz there was no more cinammon toast crunch!!


TSXY just keep chucking ideas Im about to print that episode 7 picture with Joes penis pics and tell him his gift is on the way!!
as far as I know he has downloaded all torrents of Gundams

TSXy Luster

LOL sugar addiction is a real thing!

Torrents are great, but the joy of owning the actual physical copy for eternity is great too.
Pre-order a ton of highly anticipated games for him like Battlefield 4? Make a bobble head with his face on it or of his favorite character, or a gundam bobble head with his face? Find a plush toy of something like
Custom print shirt?
Look at thinkgeek.com for a bunch of ideas.
You totally could've bought him an iPad arcade cabinet thing if he has an iPad.
I know you said he's not a car guy but for a "stocking stuffer" gift you could get one of those family stickers but with a geeky reference.

For fitness + geeky, what about the Nike Fuelband, or those FitBits, or any of those kinds of tech fitness bracelet, wearable accessories that can also be accessed via your phone.

New phone?
A TON of snacks that he loves for him when he plays his games, heck, go raid supermarkets tomorrow and get him a year (or more) supply of cinnamon toast crunch, or whatever his favorite food is.


Your dilemma has led me to this: http://gizmodo.com/5995122/awesome-w...-birthday-gift

Now, that would've been an awesome gift for him.

p.s. A surefire way to get him into cars through Anime is the "Initial D" series. You can get him the entire collection of episodes up until now (Fifth Stage).

Mr. NC

^ Fifth stage is ending after ep 15...so DISSAPOINT!

Wanna try nike fuelband no lies

apinwp09GBTSX

No on the fitness stuff, he just works out to pass time at work not serious plus its kinda part of his job to stay in shape IMO you dont want a fat physical therapist!!! hmmm year supply of asian chips, new perfect grade gundam, Inital D full series (he actually got me into to Initial D never knew about it before he told me).... checking online for stuff now!!!

might be going over budget here!! Dafuq Im gonna ask for new rims on my bday

Now something electronic,he loves gadgets - he cant wait for the google glasses not buying that ish thats on him

TSXy Luster

There's an ep 15? I thought 14 was going to be the finale?

Samsung has something similar to fuelband too that will be an accessory with the S4. :G's making one too. Fuelband don't work with Android

Well, the fuelband and fitbit aren't really fitness stuff, its more like a mini-game in an accessory that also keeps you fit haha. You could just casually mention it to him and if he is interested, that'll be your bday gift next year.

What kind of phone does he have? Android?

Mr. NC

Wait it might be 14 since they just released 12 my bad.

APin you takin this gifting SEEEEEEERIOUSLY

apinwp09GBTSX

LOLOL "that escalated quickly"... ya'll got me started, he got that iphone 5 personal and an HTC for work Evo I think not sure

The Gundam is for sure now need an electronic gadget

I think Im gonna buy the Intial D for myself

Mr. NC

Electronic you say......

TSXy Luster

How much is the Gundam, and how are you able to get it so quickly?

@Robpp wow weekend of car cleaning where are the pics? before and after!

ssjoeboe9

I like the concept... agree with apin, wheres the TLX??

TSXy Luster

Apparently some are reporting that this is the new WRX:


Two questions, (1) Is that a Lancer? (2) What the heck happened with the concept car they brought out?!

MC MiYoung3269

Sure does look a lot more like an Evo to me
