I had mine all planned out but also didn't have access to a tube bender. I'm sure an exhaust shop would bend the stuff for you.

Yea my buddies were sating some shops where like 3 dollars a bend which isn't bad at all but u would have to pre Fab everything and have the correct measurements and bend degrees so I think it would be easiest to cut and weld everything

Yes, I tapped the red lead to the driver side high beam.

To clarify the above... I tapped the high beam to engage a relay, which sits in-line from pos on the batt to pos on the lights.

Ok kool do you have any pictures of it. What size of tubing did you use for your bar? Are you an Oregon or Washington resident? And what lights did you use

it actually takes a bit of effort to curb them that bad

You have to hit the curb, feel the car slowing down and/or stopping because you're hitting it. Then hit the gas a bit to power through it until you realize you really ARE hitting something. wow.

These are the only set i have, for now. Now when I say im gonna drop 1500-2000 on new rims this summer, she better not say a word. She text me to tell me she curbed the s*** out of it, then asked if it will buff out.

She said she thought there was a turn in spot but instead it was just a f***ing curb.

Took it Ftwtuning to have Andy check out the current tune, tuned for 93. She runs just fine on the 92 out here and I don't need a new tune.
