yah, that can be fatal. good thing you were with her.

during the hot week we had here, i was working on stuff in the garage where temp was showing 120F (103F outside, + engine heat)... i had bottles of water, but drank through them like it was a small demitas (sp?) cup.

im glad it's not normal to be this hot for us.

I do the same as you. My Pelican 1510 case arrived last night. I will take pics tonight with it loaded up. I got Body, grip, filters, hoods, Speedlite and 4 lenses including my 70-200 in it.

sounds mr.onzedge!

next up for me would be a wide lens but it will take a while. i should be happy i even charged up my batteries for my DSLR yesterday and took some snaps.

then was reminded how fuzzy my images are... thus a 35mm prime. hope it fixes my issues, all of them.

It was probably a dumb kid if he was that close to a moving car.

In all seriousness though, both mirrors block a good portion of my front view. I've nearly been clipped by another car because I entered an intersection not being able to see them. Seat mod won't help completely so aftermarket is the next best option. Anyone have recommendations that aren't as pricey as the Craftsquare version?

Thanks for the heads up Ken!

I think MR. Spohn also had a cheaper alternative on his. Maybe he will chime in or I'll PM him later.

hey pint- duh, i looked at one of spohn's post... spohn's sig says "APR CF Mirrors."

i can't find a listing on their site for 370z's though. he probably had the base fabricated.

APR Performance - Formula GT3 Mirrors
