Yeah plasti dip, it's not perfect actually.
It's well covered but I didn't like the surface "if we go into details", it needed one or two more coats from a far distance. Light coats.

I took it off, will do the middle and frame gunmetal and the bottom interior (the gray part) will do that black dip

just came home and they still didn't arrived

No problem Meko.

Yes I like Canon, Majofo. And why should I trust you when it comes to cameras?

I've already decided on the T4i, the 70D or 7D, whichever it becomes will be a lot more expensive to boot.

I really enjoy my T3i that I bought for xmas. Been having a blast with it.

I was sleeping but got rudely awaken by the old lady. Phone prolly gonna ring in about 30 minutes saying I have to go back to work.

Already put in 73 hours this week and got 3 days left.

Because I've been shooting an SLR longer than you've been alive.

MEKO, if you scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page, there is a drop down menu on the right that says forum jump. Most of the time that will take you everywhere also.

delivery guys are keep checking since they go out from back all the time haha
they were the ones told me about it also

these 2 girls were living around my house before (not my parants house, my house in boston, around my school), i never talked to them but i always saw them smoking in front of the building.
they were nott paying any rent to that apartment, both were sleeping with the son of the buildings owner

one of them saw me at the back once, while throwing the trash out
she remembered us
knows one of the delivery guys too

so question... i got these pcd's and im curious to know what you guys think. I live in VA as we talked about yesterday and they sometimes do visual inspections. Should i keep the pcd's and tac weld the brackets for the heat shield on to make it look like a cat, or exchange them with Richie for 210 additional plus shipping?

Ouch @ headlights

on the PCDs question. If you're handy with welding, I guess it doesn't hurt to try the heat shield thing? How thorough are these visuals?

idk ... depends on the shop i take it to.. some guys are dicks and some are laid back. I got failed for inspection last year for led licence plate lights (cold cathode) because they arent stock on the car and were illegal. I argued for a half hour asking him if it was illegal, why do lexus', audi's, and others come factory with them. He ended up passing me probably simply because he was tired of hearing my voice.

as far as your pc's, it sounds like your inspections can be a real pita. ask yourself if you want to deal with them failing you if they find them.
