small mods, big difference

cant believe the difference a few small mods make made to my car.

clear indicators front and side, red LED parkers and some nice bright head lights.

yes i know that they are all lights but im pretty impressed with the difference they made.

window tinting will be happening as soon as tax comes in as well. and thanx to my recent misfortunes with drifting so will chrome dipping of rims.

pics?

I hope you dont mean red led parkers on the front

Clear tailights fitted by Mickford auto salvage ;)

With some nice new interior and the front end cleaned up and rid of that dodgy bar it will look very good dallas

yes i do mean red LEDs for parkers.

if ya dont like it stiff coz i do and its my damn car. j/k

nah i reakon it looks alfight and havent had any complaints yet except from cops.

mick, i was just thinkin that today the prob is that if i get the front bar i need the rest of the money to do the whole front end, ganna cost a bit more than tinting.

LMFAO, so youve had complaints from cops already then?
thats a good thing bcause its ilegal to have any red lights on the front of your car for good reason..
the law states that you cannot have any other colour than white or yellow on the front of your car.
because those colours denote the front from the rear at night
other than that, sounds like youve done some good mods.
one thing to be wary of, i hope you havent put high wattage globes in your headlights,
they draw too much current, which will melt your wiring, and the extra heat will kill the chrome on your headlight reflectors

nah they are the same wattage just brighter. they the ones that look blue to oncoming traffic.

yeh i no they illegal which would be the reason i dont drive with them on (much).

lmao!

Trust me, don't make yourself "known" to the cops. A mate of mine used to have an EA with a "Victoria Spinner" sticker plastered across his rear window. He was harassed by the cops all the time until he sold his EA, because he made himself "known" just after buying the EA. He calmed down after that but it was too late, he'd already ****ed off some of the local constabulary!

PS red LEDs sux0r :P Blue/red strobez in the w4sh3r jetz is where it's at (and a megaphone for late night "pursuits")

Red parkers? Add some pretty blue neons and you've become a ricer

rofl any idea how expensive a dash-mounted light & siren set would be? I want some after seeing Alex Roy use them in the Gumball

Yeah, I wasnt baggin red parkers for bad taste (as you said its your choice), but they are illegal. As said above, red lights denote back of car, white/yellow front. I dont think its going to cause any accidents, but it is the kind of thing that seems to **** cops off (maybe they have taste (j/k)).

Well, i did that. Lasted for around 18 months with 110w/55w (i think), then all of a sudden i thought my car was posessed or something, as the headlights started acting like random indicators! Not real fun having high beams die completely then flash on 2 seconds later on a highway late at night! It sounds like the high beam switch or whatever is flicking like a "flip-flop" switch... Any ideas on what probably needs replacing wayne, other than putting standard globes back in?

sounds like your circuit breaker is acting up mate.you could change it for another one, but it would only be temporary.. your wiring might also be crook

if you really feel the need for teh 110w globes, perhaps a pair of driving lights would be better for you.

try some of the purevision (xenon type) globes in the 60/55h4, and 55 in the H3, you'd be suprised in how good they actually are

[mcflux]

Haven't seen Gumball to be honest mate! Surely those lights wouldn't be too expensive though,

Regarding dodgy headlights, a mate of mine who used to drive a VC commodore kept popping fuses when he wired up some "custom" driving lights to his headlights. His solution? Using nails instead of fuses! The commodore's electricals amazingly lasted 6 months :P

That commodore was teh m4d!
