Hey diddy, looking good, man...
Have you considered some chrome dipped amber bulbs for those freshly replaced turn signal lenses?

The bulb appears to be chrome but they still flash yellow. That way you can't see the filament inside the bulb and such.

oh ok thanks. the turn signal bulbs are actually clear. they're amber reflectors inside the housing that light up once the blinker is on. you can't see the bulb and you can barely see the reflectors just by looking at the housing.

Thanks Tyler...
Well, the shots you posted of the reflectors show up amber from a distance...the point to these bulbs is they allow the entire housing to remain clear LOOKING until the bulb is turned on to signal. Good addition and only cost like $10 on ebay normally...I used them for my sidemarkers on the S2000 too.

i actually like it like that, being able to see the amber. when i bought the car i asked the previous owner to put the oem amber side markers back on. he was shocked that i wanted to get rid of the clear markers he had on.

Yeah definitely hope you join the Caravan to IA. Speaking of IA we should probably start planning that about now.

Gotcha
yeah, I kinda understand. I'm actually on the fence about whether or not to put the amber S2000 sides back on too. I was considering getting the clear reflectors to convert the headlights too but I am starting to slowly come back to being more into having the amber look.

I can't wait. Last year was a really fun, but sleep-deprived weekend. I'm taking off that Friday and Monday, so hopefully I can get a little sleep before hitting the road.

There's a mega meet brewing, but nothing solid just yet. Keep a lookout in the Southeast / regional thread.

When's the BBK getting installed?

There's a meet called simply clean I might come down for later this year. Mainly it's just an excuse to see my friends.

I won't be getting bbk till the summer.

That was you then. I checked the date. I didn't read thru the last couple pages...did you bring the X up there with you? Coming from down south after you pass North Carolina the roads are total shit. I was RECENTLY reminded of that when I took two 10 hour trips up to the DC area over the last 5 weeks.

It's once you get into VA that the roads suck. It's almost like once you hit the NC/VA border it changes. All I know is be careful once you pass Greensboro if you're on 85. Roads are garbage for lowered cars with low profile tires beyond that point. Either potholes or ridges or irregularities that make driving annoying. I'm not saying it would be bad if you were in an SUV but for a dropped car with stiff suspension...ugghhh!

Forgot all about that issue. Yeah, not the greatest time to travel through that area. Some friends further up the Virginia area (NOVA) said they got 12-15" of snow.

...an occasional thank you for the compliment probably wouldn't detract from the build too much.
