I could, I suppose a majority of people here may know him by name haha!

Car is still alive:

Washed the car, but not at that place, I was using it as a garage to change some lights around, the wind was bitter cold so I used the wash bay as my own personal garage.

pics of said lights?

Very sneaky!

The lights were just a set of U.V. Blacklights, and comparing them to stock halogen, and then my cool white LED (which I will forever use).

Left it stock, right is my cool white.

Left is stock, right is U.V. Blacklight

Both U.V. Blacklights on during install.

Both installed.

My camera picked them up as a dark blue in some pictures.

Left one is my cool white LED, right is the U.V. one, as you can see its not very bright compared to my normal used LED. The whole idea was to see if the U.V. lights would light up my license plate (seeing its white), but it didn't. So I WON'T be using them anymore seeing it barely lit up my plate, and the areas that were lit up, were in a deep purple glow. So indefinitely illegal. I had 2 other ones that were WAAAY brighter (high power ones) that didn't fit into the license plate slots, so I tossed those into dome and trunk lights, but I didn't like them either, so I put everything back as it was.

Shiny car! Silver FTW!

um...i meant custom lights..?

Haha....won't have anything "custom" for another 2 weeks or so, I asked my buddy Jeff to finish them up because the anticipation is killing me, and he said he has some free time and he will finish them up pretty soon and I am going up there to get them installed

I really hope jeff finishs those soon to morgan. I'm real curious to see what they look like even though i live 25 miles from jeff

Well I asked him to finish them ASAP, and I would gladly drive there to help him with the install and any other minor little things that also may still need to be finished.

Nothing new in my world, other than a block of ice freezing inside my bumper and wrapping itself around the wires for my passenger side bumper light. I didn't think anything of it until I kicked it (tried to loosen it so it would fall off) and then I was wondering why it didn't, and why it was swinging...

So, I carefully put my car in the garage, grabbed my space heater (set it for 80 F), and let the heat take care of it, then I grabbed a trusty hammer and got to work chipping away.

The block of ice and snow, it was a bit bigger, but it was already melting from the heater.

It was dangling in this photo, you can kinda see the shape of my bumper.

My trusty space heater :3

Chipping away.

Outer layer taken care of.

Some more chunks.

Slightly different angle. I had to move the space heater because a stream of water started flowing (I turned it off at this point).

Another angle again, I was getting cold so I didn't bother with any more pictures, I did get all of the ice off, but I am unsure on the damage to the wiring, it looked ok, but it was dark. The light still works so thats a plus right?

Now I need to wash that road salt off :/

Jeepers! That's crazy, makes me glad the biggest problem I had this morning was finding my sweatshirt It was in the 30's this morning here

Haha! Nice! I wish it was just a tid bit over freezing so stuff like that wouldn't happen...

Hey, it's snowblindburd, that beretta guy!

Hi Mark!

Howdy! So what are your summer plans for Samantha? Also have you figured out your rear speakers yet?

If the weather keeps this up we could probably work on them sometime soon lol!

Yeah no kidding, it is suppose to be warm through next week, warm to me anyway because I have a garage I can use and a super awesome space heater. As for plans, I am playing everything by ear, lots of potential goodies, but not sure if I will have the money to do them all, and I want them. As for the rear speakers, nope, I'm a idiot when it comes to wiring stuff, so the big spool of 14 gauge speaker wire that Cody lent me is still sitting on my desk, collecting dust. Speaking of which, you need to take a picture of Sadie's rear deck (unless Sadie is reading this, oh hai) so I can compare to mine and see why my speakers move around? I'm not saying the interior portion either, because removing the back piece by the rear window is annoying (I did it once), but more or less in the trunk...

Also, I ordered something special for the car, she deserves something nice. Don't ruin the surprise Mark lol!

Lol good luck getting around the giant sub box and multitude of friend's possessions I currently have living in there.

LOL I used to just kick the snow out... I suppose that was on my moms van though. We didn't care for the body much.

I usually just lightly tap that area with my knee and it usually comes out, this time would of been fine too, but it was around some wires so just it was just hanging there, and judging by the weight of the snow and ice, removal was necessary and I didn't want it breaking the wires, Mark has fixed them multiple times already (bad wires due to my car being in a accident with out me knowing before I bought it...booo hiss!). And Sadie all I gotta say is, "Aw shucks."

Yeah, I suppose if it were around wires I would have been a little more careful... Maybe.

Sent from my mind using telekinesis.

Hahaha!

Snow?

It was 60*F today. It's January, and I'm in New York. Only snow we've seen was two days before Halloween. HALLOWEEN.

All of ours is gone already, that was from a freak snow storm that I drove through on Jan. 1st, its been gone fore a few days now hehe.

Oh hey, can a Mod do me a favor and move this to the progression page? Seeing this is a topic of my car being built after all.
