Talking Calgary - random talk thread

so i figured since nobody likes getting their thread jacked. so i figured i would make a thread that you can post anything, and talk to anyone without having to worry. but anyways, so today i decided it was time i added some more blue LED lights to my car. this time they are in the door panels. and for anyone thinking of doing this get ready for a pain in the ass to get the power wire into the rubber wiring insulator. but they did turn out quite nicely. i'll take some pics later and put them up.

No doubt! I have a nice shiney new 3" pulley to put on the S/C.....but I am going to wait on that until I polish the S/C itself this spring.

And then it is on to the lowering springs, and a tune!!! woo hoo!!!!
