Fear the Mullet

A friend of mine got the deer and after it's processed I will get some of the meat. I do like the look of this car now! Here is a pic of the same car when the former owner had it and as you can see, this car had the Camaro bucket headlights to begin with.........

Mr's Mullet Tuesday after her 720 spinout. A snow plow went across her path leaving two huge humps of snow and she hit them at 50 MPH and lost control....................

Then this morning this happens...........

I give up :shake
Color me strange, but it seems like you should be counting your blessings that your wife survived two potentially catastrophic accidents and SHE is unscathed.... :ermm:

We will see after she drives it at night. I installed a pair of Xtra-vision headlamps and on the way home, I could see everything and the headlights never looked better. I bet she will change her mind.

I'm guessing you missed his recent posting where he revealed that she's been a royal f'kn biotch toward him lately, because she's, "going through the change".

Respect begets respect. If you lose all respect for a, supposed, loved one, merely because you don't feel good, don't be too shocked if your loved one, suddenly, doesn't feel too good, either.

What kind of "Xtra-vision headlamps", Sylvania Silver Stars?

I've been toying with changing mine out lately, from the cheapo Wagner's I have now, but I'd like some feedback from someone who has done it, and can attest to their light output improvement over the non-ST offerings.

Those :thumb

We just left a dinner date with friends and her friend noticed her car was fixed already and commented on how it looks nicer now :thumb

We also drove home in the darkness, but the new headlights really lit up the road and Mr's Mullet said that she will be able to see the road and look out for them deer now :lol

I'll get soe better, less grainy pictures of the car tomorrow.

While I'm not a bucket headlamp fan at all, I do have to say that it looks better in it's after version too.

Damn Johnny, I'm impressed. You get more car problems or mishaps then anyone I know . Maybe the Geo goddess is frowning on you. You might consider taking up bicycling instead, move closer to work but then again.... I was riding down a hill fast at night 2 years ago with good bike lighting and ran full on into a bear who decided to cross the road right then. 3 broken ribs and shoulder and my face ached for a month cause the brother came back and stepped on it

Allways carry plastic
