Do they dim on/off or is it just full on/full off? Wondering if you lose the fade with these. Thanks for the info!

You know, I never knew they faded with on/off! You learn somthing new every day! I will have to look when I leave work in a few hours, and report back!

EDIT: I just went and looked. . .They are the same brightness whether they are on as DTRL or if I have the lights switched on.

Just over 28,000 miles on the odometer. I took my big ol' guy out with me to an SCCA Novice School this past weekend. I killed dozens of cones and had a blast! Hopefully I'll partake in three or four autocrosses this summer; so more pictures to follow:

I suggest you use at least 38 psi (cold) in those tires; perhaps 40 psi for this type of activity. They are rolling over too much. Glad you had fun; these CM's love to corner!

Surprisingly I pumped them up to 40psi first thing in the morning! I usually run around 34-35psi; I brought them down to 34 when I got home that night.

^Wow - I love the mix of your black and chrome (naturally). Usually it seems people go black trim, blacked out headlights, black wheels etc. etc. I love the pop of the chrome against the black. Very sleek look.

Julzie, are those the dark headlights? My Absolute Black with dark headlamps is on the way here, and I had yet to see a photo of a black car with the dark headlamps. Thanks.

I got the anthracite headliner and black lounge leather. I'll take some better pics when I pick it up on Tuesday. Eager to see it from the side with the tunnel spoke wheels and all.

Yay chrome!

They are! It's been shockingly difficult to find pictures of the combination of options I got, so I'm super anxious to see it all in person.
