PennSilverTaco's "Perfect 5-Lug Regular Cab" Build, Aspergers, and General BS MegaThread!

So I should return those?

 

Tire sucked this up the other day

 

Honestly unless you get proper retro fits for headlights anything other then OEM are gonna be shitty

 

Maybe I should get the tint covers for the OEM ones?

 

I wouldn’t fuck around with light out put. You’re area get some dark roads.

 

Taillights fine? And once this goddamn COVID is eradicated, @Taco critter is gonna install fog lights in my truck...

 

Not gonna bother going to any weekday evening car shows anymore this season because most of them are 30+ miles away and it’s always starting to get dark by the time I get there...

 

Tails will be fine. The only thing I would be concerned about them with is the plastic cracking. This aftermarket markers are notorious for using shitty plastics.

 

If you can’t get proper retrofits. Save up a little and get some OEM black housing headlights. People do them all the time. I believe @no vtec 4me will do them if you buy them and ship them to him and he will ship them back

 

1989 Chevy Blazer.

3 engines. Then the engine mounts broke on the freeway and almost killed my mom while she was driving.

2004 challenger.

many cousin’s challenger threw a rod and blew up after 60K miles and routine maintenance.

1988 Pontiac fiero

my dad spent months modifying and painting his fiero back, when I was a kid, only to have the engine blow up on him. He never bought a Pontiac ever again.

 

I had a 78 or 79 AMC Concorde. It wasn’t an inherently bad car, but wasn’t kept up before I bought it for $400 in ‘91.
Rust holes on the fenders and doors. Couldn’t open the driver door for fear it would fall off, the hinges were rusted so bad. There were a couple of rust hole through the floor boards too. I found that out when stuff went missing.
The gas gauge didn’t work of course, so ran out at least twice. There was also exposed metal on the steering wheel where if you honked the horn you might get shocked. And to top it off, it had a bad alignment and ate front tires like candy.
I was a young E-2 with little money and one of the only cars in the barracks, so at the time I thought it was the greatest thing ever.

 

2001 Mercury Sable Wagon

 

I like these but they’re $650 for a pair...

 

These have been found on Alibaba, so I doubt a lot of research and development and care for the optics has been put into these. Nothing is going to be OEM for optics other then a proper retro fit.

 

Meant to say $650 a pair...

 

Considering that the stealership once quoted me $390 EACH for OEM headlights, that’s not too bad if the quality can be verified...

 

Ouch!

 

@PennSilverTaco Whats with the weird roofline on this RR?

 

That was my exact thought, l see Dodge Magnum in it too.
