Yea my friend was telling me it would be better to not have one period than to have one there because either way it doesnt make a difference. I moved it because I got the idea to paint my license plate mount white and put it on to see how it would all look and havent touched it since. I like the white license plate mount....just not the black one lol. Sucks you had a trooper on your *** about it...get a ticket or warning?

Don't get me wrong there not ugly and I would live just not my style that's all. Where the opposite's b/c I don't like white or black vehicles, lol. All you need now is a Pioneer Z120BT.

most of the time they are fix it and pay court fees of about 20 bucks each. so ill be stripping the side windows and im gonna find some 08+ f250 tails to bring but still fight the ticket and im looking into clear tint thats legal for the windshield and still blocks the heat (****s expensive though)

so it could be as little as around 80 but as high as 400 just for the tint

sorry bout the thread jack also

No worries, I asked. They sure got you good though, I guess thats Texas for you lol. Goodluck with the tail lights. Curious where you were so I can avoid it hah.


On a lighter note, got my new remote start and alarm installed today

[QUOTE=ag0r33;4258654]Orange mirror reflectors - big eyesore

BEFORE
(close up)




Its too late now but Ford actually sells a mirror reflector block off for that slot that's the same color as the bottom of the mirror in black.

In NYC we have EZ PASS and if my not mistaken it has to be placed on the windshield to work correctly.
