I vote Visalia... That way we can switch it up a bit.... INVADE A NEW VALLEY TOWN

oh yeah .... & I think th 4th might be too soon. why don't we try a few weeks after....

I'm just tryin to keep the meets at least a 6 weeks apart to avoid overkill... remember we wanna do this for years to come......

By all means if you wanna just get together to chill & have some beers, a mini meet is in order.

Lols! Mentioning the headlights getting blacked out, I need to put in the demon eyes and LEDs as well. Maybe we should do a mini meet to do a lil project going! haha!

I agree with Roger, the next meet should be a lil further down the stretch and we should try a differ city. Go carts? You guys are going down! I'll drift all over you guys in them! JK!!

I used high heat temp. black paint aka the engine cover paint. Roger got his professionally painted to color match his car but it didnt turn out so great so i think he might redo it.

I see. Well all you need for the headlight is high heat black paint, and silicon sealant in a tube or black rubber gasket in a tube. Needed to seal back the headlights.

lols yes we did throw them in the oven, i know baking your headlights? like wah? haha it works though.

To answer you question Brian my fogs are just the 9006 bulbs, I bought them from IDT shop in fresno itz on blackstone and shields, he sells them pretty cheap there. If you wants some let me know the size and i can ask him for you for the pricing.

i went to kragens today and all the had was red silver and black caliper paint kit, There is a huge import/american shop called tognottis in sac im going to there and see what colors they have. Plus i need gray heat resistant paint for the engine cover. and then dupli-color indoor outdoor flat black paint.. and some clear coat..

Im think im probably going to spend about 50 on paint

Lol yeah I have the switchbacks, there just bulbs that you can order that has 48 LED built in on them. half is hyper white and the other half is amber. They cost about 50 bucks from vleds.com but you get like 8 dollars off for using the promotion code acurazine. so around 40 bucks for a pair. All you have to do is switch out the stock bulbs and put in the LEDs. Then itz done! Just remember to test to see if it works. haha
