BTW -- didn't know you got your shop up and running. Congrats on that brother. Good luck with the business. Wish you were closer to the Bay.

So tempting, but I have to hold off for now. Oh, and I thought you had like some custom HRE's or another project being constructed for you? We'll see?. might not be much longer till I change it a bit

hahaha! great minds think alike, he just installed these custom headlights....we worked together on the layout (he did all the heavy lifting with his expertise of course lol)



as for the rims, i really want these 21" DPEs but man.....they are almost like $5k so your set really sounds much more practical haha
