have any dyno sheets or track slips???? You still dont need a 3.5" can on a 400 HP car....Sounds like a weedwacker with a cherry bomb....Dumped...

So many ricers around here claim they have SOOO much HP....but then, when they get to the track, they cant get out of the high 12's. Its actually funny....Everyone ricer wnats to race my 70 Nova...they usually lose.
Not knocking you...Just saying that everyones comeback is "well it has This much HP, It should be in the 10's if it could hook." Well hook it...then talk your ****

Dont get me wrong, i respect the ricers....they brought us Brian Earl Spilner...And then they gave us harsh...very harsh street racing laws.....even if you just go to watch..

But anyway....Yes the Black would look so much better on your truck....Even the stock ones painted black would look good. How much black do you have on your truck??

Hey my stock GSXR1300 Hayabusa Motorcycle does 9 sec quarters at 140+mph terminals and my supercharged one does high 8s with 145+ terminals but enough of this my ***** is bigger then yours stuff weren't we talking about tail lights?

You can get LED bulbs that fit in your stock bulb holders and look pretty trick and at not much more then the stock bulbs. The carbon fibre look is starting to get a bit tired now as well

Yes I have already installed load resistors and am running red led bulbs! I like the black ones more myself, and would love some black ones with clear lenses so I can still use my red led bulbs but I can't find any!

And mine did not break from catching them with the tail gate down! They just simply broke because they were not made well! I drive on a lot of dirt roads and the washboards just broke the cheap @$$ plastic mounts!
