• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Great Safety Mod I did mine yesterday. Got the 14 LED strips from Pep Boys in Dallas. These are flexible side firing leds with adhesive backing. Has anyone done a third brake light mod yet? If so what did you use and where did you get it from? I want to add a modulated light. See and be seen.
