My wife and I took a ride to Rockport yesterday, here are some pics of that;
Some railing that incorporated some portholes and a wheel;
Oops, wrong pic;
Then there was this very suspect statue of a naked child on a frog, as suspect as it gets I tell ya;
A pic of our buddies place in Stewartstown NH about a month ago;
Then this past Saturday, bringing home the sled for the season, spring is here and the white stuff is going, going and soon, will be gone;
I put in a set of HID headlights in my car a few weeks ago, here is a pic without the shrouds yet installed, looking like the Terminator's eyes;
Then some views of the light thrown out by these "Light Cannon's" in the cemetary where I was aiming them, low beams HID's, 6000K;
Then the Halogen 65W High Beams, notice where the light ends in the above pic, then where the High's pick it up and go further down the road, aweomely intense!;
I traded my Borla Stinger exhaust pipes for the Titanium set off this Red Z06, good trade as the Ti exhaust is quiet. The Borla system was like having a Mercury EFI on the back of the boat as opposed to a Verado, I like the quiet;
Oh yeah, up here, while the winter was fun and all, it seemed to drag on despite all the wintertime activities and I even forget at times that I even have a boat, and a pretty sweet ride I must say. Don't forget the Bruins winning the division, the Celtics will be in the playoffs and vie for another Championship. With your permission, please allow me to show it off;
First nice weekend in April and I'm sure I'm going to be heading out to Stellwagen to get that first load of Cod, can't hardly wait. Spring and Summer up here are the best!
Gorgeous boat you have, the 300 must make really move while still getting excellent mileage. I didn't know the Bruins won their division, hopefully now they can just go somewhere in the playoffs. The C'sare slowing down a bit, but once Garnett and Powe (?) get healthy, they should be good. Within the last 9 years, sports in Boston have been exciting. I lived in NE for 17 years and april-sept are the best IMO. Lets see some pics when you fill the boat with cod!
JoeyM, I've seen your cars and they are ALL so sweet.
There is a guy in Texas who has made the lights specifically for our C5's and they are the TOPS! I knew going in that the lights were the weakest spot on an otherwise sweet car so it was the first thing I had to spend money on. $750 for the base setup which is what I got and if you desire Halo's, HID-high beams or more wattage in any of the bulbs he offers, for some extra $$$, you can.
The whole setup is incredible and the light output is as well. It took me about 2 hours to take out the old and put in the new and the harnesses and ballast stuff is all plug and play, you will read about it when you follow this link and see what others have said along with my thoughts about it all. If I had to do it all again it woud take me about an hour to do both as I'm now an expert.
For the price, there is no better HID setup for our C5's than this, after all, the guy has a C5 himself and designed it all so that there is NO cutting, no drilling, no modifying of any kind, unbolt the old, bolt in the new, plug and enjoy lighting up the night. You are in RI, if/when you ever get them, let me know when you are free and I'd be happy to help, things would go really fast with one guy on each light.
Growing up now, sold the streetbike 2 Octobers ago, way too dangerous nowadays, GPS' distract more than people on 2 cellphones at once! Sold the dirtbike about a month ago, no more stuff with 2-wheels. Baby on the way in November, yikes! A baby seat will go in the Vette and when I need to take the kid to daycare, ha!
Between Tarpaulin or Kettle cove's, one of those. By May, the boat will be back on the dock and the season will begin, thank goodness for Springtime in New England, wasn't that by Barry Manilow?
