Buddy, I like the new shots! Let me know if you want me to update the title of your thread with a new date.
I'm considering getting the new Canon EOS Rebel T4i myself. The honeymoon is July 22-29th. We are renting a convertible and driving the Pacific Coast Highway.

^^^ I agree with Tyler....
Steve, I drove the PCH from San Diego to Seattle last year....the only advice I have for you is drive from North to South....so you will be on the side of the road which is right alongside the coast....you gonna have a blast....
I want to ride the PCH someday

^^^I made the mistake too, of going the wrong way. Went Northbound on it and the short period we DID get to see it was VERY overcast and not pretty. Hmm...
Plus, they ran out of convertibles when we showed up to pick up our rental car. So sad...but that was a South Cali trip, our next big one is supposed to be Northern Cali!

That's exactly what we are doing. We are starting in San Francisco, then going to Monteray/Carmel and beyond.

Yep, those are all on our list of destinations.
My wife made me promise not to get on Acurazine for the entire honeymoon.......I might sneak a peak from time to time.

Dude GP, I might be in your area next week visiting family and hopefully selling my BBS wheels. If that happens we should set up a meet! I'll be around Toronto-near Scarborough possible but my family lives mostly near Jane st. And Westin ave. is that far from you? I don't know the area very well obviously lol

Yesterday, TL Seth came up to do his headlights, shock sensor, 120 LED switchbacks with load resistors and footwell LEDs.
When he arrived:
Headlight parts being painted:
Headlight parts put together:
Blacked out V2, removed amber diffuser with carbon fiber inlays
Clamped down:
Some pictures when everything was done:
It was a perfect day, and everything went really smooth.
We even watched a little bit of the Euro finals when we were waiting for the paint to dry!

Thanks =)
Thanks Steven =)
It wasn't too bad lol
While the paint dried between coats, we were able to get his footwell LEDs installed (he only has footwell leds in the fronts), and the shock sensor installed.
Then we did the load resistor install in the trunk while the headlights were clamped together.

I got the clamps at Wal-Mart (Home Depot sells nice expensive ones lol) and I used Nissan Butyl to seal it up.
