I couldn’t stand the light bleeding through. Doesn’t support the design and effect I wanted.

So I added another layer and boom my idea came to life. No more bleeding. A solid strip look/effect without actually using (unreliable) strips lol. Cheap and easy and reversible later if wanted. Just a fun mod to play around with.

Future I might put some light smoke over the clear area. But for now I’m happy with the look.


As you can tell from far away the signals are still visible to other drivers

some more progress on the Christmas lights too

Trying to shed more light and joy at the end of 2020 I went and got some small generic Christmas lights, changed my mind and went with the bigger C9 bulbs instead. I did swap the ugly amberish/yellow bulbs to white since I had extra laying around from the house lights.
ordered a small power inverter

Used a short extension cord and had some festive lights. Getting compliments everywhere I go. Putting smokes on faces.

Chillin at the cousins house spending all weekend baking Christmas presents for the family. Lol our great grandma had her own “Chex mix” style snack that she invented years before Chex mix was invented. mans every person who’s ever tried it says my great grandmas version is better than Chex mix. It’s the bomb and was only made around Christmas time. After she passed I took it upon myself to be the one to bake them during Christmas. I didn’t have time last year because of working on the oil fields. But this year I have time. Each family member gets their own batch. Sooo delicious and it’s one thing I can do to bring happiness to the end of 2020View attachment 265437 View attachment 265438 View attachment 265439 View attachment 265440

and more pics of the bowtie

All about the traditions Dave. Just gotta keep them alive for the family.

On the way to my cousins something caught my eye . Apparently this neighborhood is known to light up the block every year. I had no idea. So I turned around and had to get some pics. It was a mild 1 degree out and the frost was extra frosty that day which made the lights glow even more.

Yea it was crazy and just glowing. That was a week ago and ever since it’s been in the 20s and 30s and within the frost it just doesn’t look at all as vibrant and colorful as it did that day. Can’t believe I’m saying this but we need another cold snap lol

Haha you're really the light man, I don't like most of the light updates, but everybody has his own style In NL you aren't allowed a lot of those light mods, especially on the outside. Really like how to are kinda OCD like me and you're cleaning/detailing looks proper too. Really makes me wanna detail mine. It even is my job, but I don't got a garage at home and the weather sucks, it's winter here..

The fender flares, that is part of your winter mode? You just delete and re-use them every time? I've got a new set laying around, I can't make up my mind if I want to use then. If so, I want to de-rust and paint the inner wheel well, before applying them. But I might be able to sell them good because you can't get them in Europe.. Chooses, chooses, with the money I could do other things faster like new wheels for the Titan rims and chiptuning the gearbox and engne.
