    Re: Dark_Accord's Update Thread 2

    ^If cops there are like they are in missouri..I would put the license plate back, cause your just asking for trouble.
    Sure I got away driving through town with just open super comp headers, and no plates at all, in my Galaxie, but in my honda got pulled over and he gave me all kinds of crap for my plate in the window.

    I've kind of been wanting to get some fog lights though...I want some that look yellow and blue from different angles, but I also want them to be rectangular.

    yea i just realized your plate is missing,you're in california dummy,you have to have one on the front. if they pull you over and realize the car is falling apart in the road,they make tow it off.

    i agree with everyone cops seem to be anal in these states with front plates, i got pulled over becuse mine was hanging at an angle (i lost a screw i guess) i was like how in the fuck was i suposed to know. get that plate mounted up under a turn signal, i sent you that plat mount and it should work for it as thats what i was gona use it for, fogs look good though

    Re: Dark_Accord's Update Thread 2

    might wana see if you can get it to sit a bit higher, seems like it will scrape easy like that you should be able to get it within an inch away from the bumper and it wont do any harm, and deff wipe it down it looks all dirty lol. other then that it looks alot better then no muffler. but um whats with the packing tape on the rear?

    Cah the fog lights should be evenly adjusted, and a bit lower than they are. The left headlight should be a little bit lower than the right so you do not blind other drivers. With the set up now you will be blinding people left and right.

    quoted from slotcarzone.com
    Probably the most important things that you will ever purchase for racing is the body tape. The first roll is 3M 863. This is a light weight strapping tape used at the rear of the car and is typically used for stiffening the wings to remove flutter. The second roll is 3M 898 and is used on the front of the car for reinforcement. The next roll is a 3M 2 mil transfer medium, no tape just glue and is used to stick things together like fingers and wings and spoilers to bodies. Roll four, the big fat one, is used to cover other tape, front only, and stiffen the front of the wings.

    he taped the seams like we do on airplanes, probably good for another 100 horsepower. thats the secret to his car doing 120 all the time,it's a sleeper. the tape also keeps in all that nitrous.
