    Hey Guys! So we had about 22 Kits go out saturday! Im sure there a few of you who replied but missed it by a day or so. I am working to get the rest of you taken care of but unfortunately you won't get your kits by Christmas. I am super swamped trying to balance family get together and sending these kits out. Stay tuned for PM's tomorrow.
    Some of you are already getting your kits, that is wonderful!

    P.S.
    The list Shane (MACH375) posted is not current, some on that list are not shown and some are already taken care of. I'll post up the current list tomorrow, anyone who has added their name since will be added to there.

    Got my kit today!! WOOHOO!! I was installing my redline hood struts today when the mailman came. :) Already installed the lights and they are awesome!! Cant wait until it gets dark tonight so I can check it out. Thanks for the great detailed install video too. Install was so simple(only took like 20 minutes or so).I'm sure the Basic kit is pretty easy to install but I'm glad i got the pro kit. Thanks Brad!!!

    Damn this thing really puts out some light!!

    Installed. Impressed so far. Only issue I had is that even with lots of cleaning the tape on the LEDs didn't like cold metal so a little hair dryer warm up made it all good.

    Woohoo!! Thanks for sharing your install, great timing with the mail man to. That looks great!!! Can I steal that picture? That truck is a work of art. Dont forget your shades lol :cool:


    That might explain a couple instances where a customer couldn't get his leds to stick. Wow thank you so much for sharing that tip! I am going to include that info on my little *tips list* I send for the installation. Thank you!!

    What's the difference between a Pro Kit and the CALICO Pro Kit?

    I want a kit regardless.

    I installed my kit yesterday, and I opened my hood today to show a buddy and it had come unstuck from the hood. I don't blame brad or the LED strip for this failure to adhere, as the issue can be one of a dozen different things, from a not clean enough hood, to a cold adhesive, to dirty LED strip, ect. I bought some double sided tape and put that on the bottom of the LED strip, and reapplied it to my hood. It still wasn't sticking 100%. With the fan and supercharger spinning right underneath it, I didn't want it coming undone while driving so I made little 'band-aids' out of the tape and did this:
    IMAG0235_zpsc672fbf7_43d605c86e4f87cd8cdb07a66eb6ca7012fab463.jpg
    Not the prettiest thing to look at but you can't see the band-aids from the front cause of the plastic strip that hangs right in front of it. Just putting this out there for others that are OCD like myself and don't want it coming off while doing 90 down the freeway and getting tangled up in the SC.
