    Believe it or not, someone actually pm'd me yesterday asking for advice regarding Lambo doors after seeing my avatar. I sat there for a good 5 minutes laughing, wondering how I should respond.

    I just saw a black access cab i think? it had HIDs and either yellow or stock fogs. black rims and 2-3" lift going down malvern towards euclid and after brookhurst. I flashed my high beam at you, good lookin truck :cool:
    Not sure if its a member on here because he kinda gave me a look from flashing my lights, i couldnt really tell since he was on the other side of the street haha

    Probably didnt know if you were flashing him to say "HI" or if you were because of his HIDS. I get flashed all the time from my retrofits but there 50w sooooo. I need to reaim them after the lift.

    Yeah I really need aim them again. After I added the lift i get flashed like crazy. Waited to get a new L headlight housing. I melted that one alittle so its kinda warped. Im sure thats not helping.

    Saw that white DMZ built access cab with fiberwerx fenders on malvern today. I dont think hes on here but he has a full bed cage. It seems like that guy doesnt take care of his truck that much, his cage is rusting, tailights are duct taped, and i think his glass is cracked haha sweet truck nonetheless.
