I need to have my calipers re-powder coated. I chipped one putting a wheel on (small chip), plus I don't want red anymore... but I'm ordering wheels today instead, I think.

Nick do the cops in AZ bother you much with your blacked out rear lights? And what did you use to them?

Edited: Nvm, just saw your video, Plasti Dip them....

Cops here won't bother you with tinted tails. There are a lot of vehicles with them. As long as the light is visible from 500' there's not an issue. I've never had an issue with mine...

NickTurnon · 03-04-2014, 02:57 PM

Yeah, Seth - I originally used dip. Then switched it up.. Follow my DIY if you'd like.
DIY: How To Blackout Taillights

And pfdaxe is right.. Cops out here really just get pissed off with the cars that black them out so much that there is barely any light coming thru. Also i've found that much less people have issues when you leave the reverse light instead of blacking out the entire light.

But look at my DIY and find my new tails...

Attempted to go in for an alignment today...

Unfortunately that front lip sits too low and the alignment lasers cant work properly.

Thats a bummer. Only option is to remove the front lip, do the alignment, and then put it back on after and hope none of the dip gets ruined or pulled off..

Damn Lip! lol

Nick:

Not sure where you go, but I take all of my vehicles to Network Alignment on N. Cave Creek Rd just north of Cactus. They do all kinds of lowered and lifted rides. They do great work and never an issue

Here's their info:

Network Alignment & Brakes

That's very odd...front lip has nothing to do with being able to align a car...leave that shop quick!

NickTurnon · 03-07-2014, 09:54 AM

I went to Network Alignment off Cave Creek Rd...

They said they didnt have an issue getting it on the lift. They said they had an issue with the laser being able to go all the way under the side of the car.

I was so confused - He told me i could drive to the Network in Glendale, but that was 45 minutes away from where I was at (Cave creek rd location)

Ill probably have to sack up and drive over to the other further location this weekend.
