I spent the night driving around looking for Kenchan.

I was cruising along Rt6 heading into Providence when my radar detector started giving little beeps where it had never given them before.

A guy from New Jersey in an SUV flew past me... I waited and the signals became stronger and as he rounded the bend his breaks lights went on..then I say the same gendarme of the law in his cruiser as he did. The cop car lights went on and the guy pulled to the side not even waiting to be chased..

I felt like giving a bit of a toot as I went by but instead I just laughed to myself.. I know I shouldn't laugh.. but i did..

Ordered new set of white LEDs for the license plate, the set I got last month has couple of them burnt already

The seller has sent me a replacement, no charge, good service

But I still order another set, different kind, just to be safe, only $10, what the heck

What was the different set? From VLED perhaps?

Finally got around to Plasti-Dip my side markers

falconfixer · 08-18-2012, 03:48 PM

If I could go back in time I would invest in Apple and Plasti-dip

Side note, was doing some spirited driving on the way home and was getting a stong odor of raw fuel....gonna have to look into that tomorrow.

Changed the oil and installed the ZSpeed under shroud today. Taking the Z out for a spin in a little bit.

The main difference between the two are the type of the connections, the first one I got, which is the white one in the picture, only use the tiny-thin wire, it does not have enough surface area to completely "touch" the socket.

The new one I just ordered, have solder on the whole area... it will give a much more stable connection between the bulb and the socket.

Looking forward to receive the new one and will write up a quick review after install...

I just have this one pic. I forgot to take one with it installed. This is the side that faces upwards.

Nice. I am thinking about one of those.

I plasti-dipped the whole interior today. Seats, steering wheel, radio and all.
I'm going to use plasti-dip instead of condoms from now on!!!

Gangsta!

It's pretty nice. Especially compared to the cheesy OEM plastic one.
