Default Some pics (let there be flames!)

i recently added some green hid fogs to my car, yes green.

me and justin (knihc2008) were pretty bored and not studying for midterms, so we decided to meet up at a parking structure at ucsd to take some pics! and to talk about school/life etc.. lol jk

here are some pics (might be a little grainy due to point n shoot)
thanks justin!

there are some crazy fires going down here, so please don't flame TOO much.










and yes, the visibility is GREAT

This car is BEAUTIFUL in person. The aqua fogs are admittedly a little off-putting at first but they are unique and not tacky at all; I grew to like them a lot. They aren't EMERALD as some of the pictures show them to be; IMO the most accurate picture showing the color of the fogs is the fifth one (8000k low beam color are pretty much dead on in the second picture). And sorry about the grainy picture quality; I tried to make the best with what I had, and my crappy point and shoot isn't much! I need to get my grubby hands on some hardcore picture hardware!!!

Johnny, it was great meeting you today! Thanks for coming out; I had a blast. Definitely a relief from staying home hiding from the fires all day!
