eposey... maybe just stop right there. Somebody may take your comments in a way that no amount of back-tracking or redefining will get you out of.

Doesn't matter what you meant, just that someone may take issue with the words already typed.

I didnt mean it in a mean way. Just stating an observation that I have made. I will leave it at that. I was not putting down Mexicans in any way.

LOL, don't be sterotypical now, how do you know they are all Mexicans. And how can they be citizens of Mexico if they reside "in your area"?

I'm sure it wasn't meant in a negative way.

I don't want to puts words in anyone's mouth but eposey was probably referring to a group of young men with a common ethnicity that represent a small group within the larger group of people with Hispanic heritage.

I think I know what he was trying to say, just used a word that some may take as being a stereotyping remark.

No biggie. Truth is, everyone at some point in their like will either stereotype someone (racial group, socio-econmic group, occupation, etc) or refer to a sub-group by the name of the larger group.

Who here hasn't made reference to "stealerships" "politicians" etc in a negative light?

Anyway, end of discussion. No harm was meant so lets not slam anyone.

Mexicans as in people from Mexico. Americans are people from America. Chinese are from China... etc.

I did not mean it in a deragatory way.

Lets just drop it, i was just pointing out an observation that I have made.

Thumbs down

Ditto, but with the Car Wear tail lights. First time I installed them, the outer lens contacted the body before the back, and it opened a gap to let them fog up. Pretty Cheesy.,,,,98

Thumbs up

I have Depo diamond headlights, though. Very good quality, no yellowing, no melting, decent light pattern, etc...Worth the money I paid.
I also have Lightning corners, which are actually kind of foggy looking compared to the Depo headlights. Difference in plastic mix I guess.,,,,98

Hate to brake to break this to you fellas. I used to work for APC and the APC factory has contracts with ford and APC's factory makes the stock Lighting Headlights and Taillights and also make the new Focus projectors. They are made to OEM quality not aftermarket quality. APC can make good stuff but they choose not to to keep the price down!
