both. Sometimes they list it on their website. Sometimes they email (although I have never ever gotten an email from them, unless it's tracking info). Sometimes they post on here. Sometimes all 3. I'd keep checking here and on their site though. and I also say black friday/cyber monday/thanksgiving. BUT... possible columbus day sale. Is a semi recognized holiday...

because 4300k HID's look too yellow to me. 8000k isn't to drastic. 10k and above is starting to get on the drastic side. Ricerish? NOT. If they were pink, or deep purple, (15-30,000k) i would agree. Bad idea? maybe for you, but a GOOD idea for me.....because its my prerogative. @ 8000k, they are still bright white with a HINT of purple. Before it was bright white with a hint of yellow. As for the fogs, and highs, they WERE halogen, as i explained, so they were switched out to match. Agreed.I've seen some really bad headlights on the street before. Anything with a color hue is horrible. It seems to dull out the brightness and isn't as bright as it could be. I find the pure white hid's to be the best. I drove a mini cooper which has the white hid's, stock xenon's I believe. Much brighter than aftermarket hid's on trucks or ricemobiles as they drove next to me on the highway, the mini cooper's headlights were much more noticeable on the ground as they drove past me. the fog lights are Futurevision but the other ones are not. I ordered them online. The highs are whatever brand i could find, they had good reviews. They will rarely ever be turned on. If i do turn them on, they will match. Seems like a good set, i don't anticipate any problems. The headlights already have factory ballasts and is just a direct bulb swap. Bulbs don't generally go bad, ballasts do. So I will be ok. as far as "anything with color is horrible", again, that is your opinion. You are entitled to it. It's my opinion that factory is horrible. They were so yellow looking, people would say "you need HID's on your Lexus"....and i am like DUHH they already are HID's. A slight color change isn't nothing to bitch about. Was gonna edit the quote but figured better not... I wouldn't say 8k would be ricer. I think there's a time and place for anything. Now would you want to roll around with green lights? nah. Not good. But, in MY opinion, if you had a green car (as in green leds and all), pulled up at a car show, think green hid's would work well. As far as people complainin about the color? Really? Does everyone agree with what you do to your own ride? Of course not. You went with Brand A when you shoulda gone with Brand B. Or Brand C. Brand A sucks. Blah blah blah. Everyone's ride is just that, that person's ride. Let them do whatever the hell it is they want to. Meade wanted 8k? He got 8k. In MY opinion, looks better. The fogs match better. As far as useable light? Well, 8k is still pretty bright. It's not worthless. Not as bright as 4300k or "pure white" but compare it to what some/most of us on here run. I know I'm running stock halogens. (Long story) My opinion, looks good. And must be someone else's opinion as well considering they contacted you for a photoshoot....ahem.

Nothin about Nates_Volester? Or name roughly similar to that?

Nate_Volester? Heard he was going to move and then..... *crickets*

Since I personally, and I'm sure a few others also, are saving up for the holidays, I was wondering. Does Sonic do a massive sale, such as Black Friday? Cyber Monday? Granted, it's like 2 months away (gotta start saving early right?). But, do you guys do that? Or are all of your sales just random timed? I'm eyeing one of two head units, and close to pulling the trigger. Just need a bit more time. But if there's a sale? Can 99% guarentee that I'll pull that trigger for that sale.

Just me or just me? "in with the new" and pic, in the middle, says "new".... But damn. Better than 98% of others? Won't even try mine. Probably at the 2% range of scores lol.

mid 2014? are you high? the only reason its not out yet for PC is because the ps4 and one aren't out yet. same x86 architecture. rockstar is waiting to release the better versions because money money money....MONAY. if they sold it for PC right now, nobody would be playing it for xbox LOL because PC graphics are better than peasant console graphics. Great a PC elitest, you're so cool. LOL. I believe WastedTalent posted that his insider said Q1 or Q2 will be PC/XB1/PS4. So that's early to mid 2014. Plus all you PC ppl will just torrent the game which is another reason why they are probably waiting. An article on PC release that uses past console then PC release dates for GTA puts the release date for V in April. Plus the game actually looks beautiful on console. No sir, was not me. Only things I've posted about GTA5 was that vid of why it's boring and the pic that supposedly it's coming to ps4 and xbone (no timeframe, just code screen shots) but I can take the credit if you want. lmfao.

So I'll be honest, haven't read much of the thread cause seems butthurt central in here. And haven't seen Tony's video as busy can be. I'll try to get to it tonight/this morning. But... my opinion is this. CCA is little less than half the cost of OFC. But, CCA is more than half the amperage rating of OFC. So unless OFC is required due to classes (limits on how many runs) or too many tight fits, why wouldn't you do CCA? You can get 2x the amount of CCA than you can of OFC for the same price. 100ft of CCA = 50 ft of OFC, based on price (and CCA is still cheaper. Get maybe 110 ft or so actually). Since CCA can handle more than 1/2 the amperage OFC can, why not? I see if it's a requirement due to classes or you have a monster system that needs tons of runs and you can't fit that many under panels. But I mean those systems, such as mine, where the entire system (subs, mids, highs, ect) is around 1800 watts on a good day. Think CCA would be more cost effective. Again, my opinion and that's without reading majority of this thread due to butthurt, and without seeing Tony's video due to 16 hour work days + driving and all.

An 8GB install is required. For optimal performance, we recommend not installing the play disc. I saved all of your lives. Yw. And yes, that came from Rockstar. http://techland.time.com/2013/09/16/rockstar-warns-xbox-360-owners-not-to-install-grand-theft-auto-v-play-disc/

All that needs to be said.

well it all comes down to them making me pay 40 bucks for shipping and then not emailing me back. its not that its doesn't fit its just the way there handling it in my opinion. i understand they have allot of work but when you email someone in 30 minutes when you need something from them and they give it to you and then you don't reply back after i ask if they are gonna reimburse me. i mean im broke dude. im spending every last bit of money getting ready for slamfest Bro, I'm going through the same thing (with a different company, different item as it's not car related). i bought something, didn't fit, i have to pay for shipping, they'll exchange and ship back to me. I sent it to them Tuesday. They received Thursday. I haven't heard anything. Guess what? CALM DOWN. As others stated, companies deal with a lot of people. You don't know what they're doing. Think they're in the back, playing floor hockey? I'm sure they're doing all they can to help not only you, but everyone else. I haven't heard anything from the company I'm dealing with and I'll give them until Wednesday or so. Then I'll just call them. (Bigger company, they have people dedicated to literally just answering the phones so won't have that problem). And fact that they're giving you the upgrade, for free? Really gonna complain about $40? I understand, trying to spend all your money to get ready for a competition. But don't you realize what a freaking gift you're receiving? How much bigger of a system, how much money that saves, ect... because you're getting a bigger alt? But you don't see me blowing up the company saying this is bs. Sucks I have to pay shipping but, it is what it is. No biggie. Just calm down. They've stated what they need/want from you. Just have to give it to them. And then wait a little longer. Being a vendor/sponsor on THIS site means something. Means they're good business. They won't do you wrong. I mean, basically, they're giving you your alt, plus another one, for the price of the one you ordered. I see no problems with that on YOUR side. I'd say bad business for Mech as how you make money on that? Lol. But that, right there, is how and why they're part of this site. Going to diss them and panic because of that? Wow. From my understanding, Mech is a small company. They don't have but 5? 10? Employees. Think of all the orders. Think of all the calls. Emails. Ordering for their supplies. Finding out tracking information so they can keep their customers updated. Fact you got that one email within an hour, I'd say you're quite lucky. But hey, that's just my opinion.
