Thanks for the comments guys. I been gone for a minute like Seize said, Equips will definately go back on as soon as they get fixed. Nothing feels better then 4000 dollar set of rims damaged .

Joe, still in the area just not working in it ... glad to see ur still around and lurkin the forums

Jeff, comments always appreciated...i quit the second job at the restraurant so i wont be slangin sushi anymore . too much on my plate right now.

Poy, . nuff said.

Masboy, pictures were taken when Airrunner was in my car, i have since gone back to my L-tuned setup.....kind of...

Clev, GS430v8, mirrors work...there are only two wires coming out of the blinkers....ground and positive...ground 1 wire in the door and run a line from ur turn signals through the firewall then through the door to the second wire..pretty easy. you can purchase from japan like i did or sometimes you can find them on ebay.

Bippupxr, Ive been lurking the forums for awhile now and I have read most of your comments, to be honest ur comments help me get back on my CL feet.

ALL PEOPLE WHO COMMENTED ON THE RIMS, does it really look that bad? its still winter...kind of....well not really but I still have time to get the EQUIPS fixed...damn give a guy a break! if having another set of 20's as backups isnt impressive enough i dont know what is? haha all good..

Thanks

haha to the last comment panda .. ! they will knock the rims because you have a very nice set still ... that actually helped me build my car that aren't on your car now lol ..


Very appreciated of your comment too panda .. and the car will have a good turn out .. Its hard to imagine how it will look because of the non flush look which I still get ripped for today ;/

all the old school posters know you and the build .. so thats a good thing , Maybe the newer ones maybe know what you had , should post up a before picture too ...

car looks amazing....what vendor did you use when you got those side mirrors from Japan?
i've been looking on ebay for months now with no luck. i did find a set that covers my existing ones but i'm not interested in that.

not at all...those rims look pretty sweet in my opinion. I guess we're all so used to the equips, but the ones you have on there now are pretty sick still (what kind are they?).

So good to see you back, Panda. It's been a while for sure.

And those rims look just fine, the Equips are just so badass though that most of us miss them.

Once again, thanks for my clear fogs, I still love them! And I'm still using those same Piaa bulbs that you recommended many moons ago.

I'm a big fan of your GS and I think it's just SO pimp that your "winter wheels" are another set of 20's

Kevin - ive kept up with ur threads...ur lookin good bro...glad the fogs went to a good home...

::::::::::just for clarification guys the blinkers are actually covers that go right over your stock mirrors

again peeps thanks for the comments, I actually bought door handles and blinker covers from a CL member..... let me PM him and see if hes willing to get these for you guys as he did it as a favor to me...

otherwise im pretty sure you can get the door handles from
www.L-tunedparts.com....i believe they sell black chrome and regular chrome.
