This is why you buy locking lugs for your factury wheels. Fucking crackheads will take anything they can scrap for cash... including my r/t alloys.

Fuck some people are just garbage.

Looking for some cheap magnum valve springs, a solid FMM, a solid bobble, and a nice non-mod clutch setup.

Man.. sad to see..

Anyway, I am sure of someone really wanted to, they could get my lockers off.. They are a different shape than any nut.. It came with these stupid little adapter that if I ever lose, I have to buy a new one for almost $8.00 :|

Better than getting these stolen though..

That's because it is a bit harder to pawn off.. You have to find someone with a compatible hood.

Plus noobs these days only cary a lug wrench.

:-( im starting from scratch...no props here? lol but then again i dont have the $$$ to do anything right now. just got turned down for a job at carmax too.

btw stk, the lugs kinda throw off ur look but its hard to notice since you havnt done much exterior wise yet. hook yourself up with some depo's them stocks r YELLOWWWW. or even diamond clears. if i get some depo's soon, i'll sell you my clears w/bulbs.

lol yea.. I know man..

My euro style turns should be comming any day and the clear third will be on soon..

I don't really care about the lugs.. I think they actually look good on there..

eh.. may change them to something else, but they did cost $32

PS: I have gotten denied at so many places for work, it's not even funny.

I got more pictures this morning :D

I will upload them when I can.. I should have brought my cord to school with me..

I'll try to get more after school (maybe a wash too) if it's not snowing that bad..


I realize what you're saying about the yellow lights man..

That will be soon when I have enough money.. I'm more or less broke now..

I am still waiting for my clear sidemarkers and clear turns..
