    Man.. when it comes to trick parts, you're in almost every thread around here. Wouldn't it be just be easier if you listed the parts that you DON'T have in your car, Micah? lol I kid.

    I'd like to see the box design that was mentioned for recessing the taillights. Sounds interesting.

    Those trick parts come with the curse of an empty bank account! No wife, no kids = stupid amount of money spent on cars. It is a disease for me:

    it is terminal and if you have a wife she usually doesn't understand the disease because it is so complex

    My wife isn't giving me any grief over spending money on my car. Just how fast I've been doing it over the past year. I guess that's why we've made it 25 years so far. She understands me.
