Excellent! I hit Buffalo Trace and Makers Mark earlier this year. There was another distillery I stopped at but it was a smaller one. Heck of a good time, I may be out that way with a buddy or two sometime this summer depending on how things work out.

Sounds like that wedding will be a great time!

You may have been to Willet. It's on the way to Makers Mark across from Heaven Hill. Willet is a great distillery, one of my favorites.

Next time your up let me know and we can meet up.

Those XtraNormal videos are fun. A few years ago, I made one myself.

For the longest time on Org, there was this igit who trolled the site with the most inane posts. With picture proof of the install, he actually installed a twin-loop muffler. It was painful, the things he said and did. You'd have to look it up to believe it. Almost all his threads ended up locked.

Anyway, one afternoon I started experimenting with the XtraNormal services, and came up with this video, freestyling the script as I went. It's more funny if you understand the back story, but still pretty funny on its own. Enjoy.

It's nice but as I have mentioned before AFAIK DD don't sell 5k LEDs... neither it states anything about color temperature regarding particular type of LEDs... and these look and most likely are 6k which are not going to cut it for me

I don't know if they're 5k or 6k but they're pure white which is what I thought you were looking for.

how do you determine pure white? AFAIK pure white is 5k and according to DD they don't seem to have 5k LEDs , correct me if I'm wrong the ones in your picture do slightly seem to have a blue tint to them which would make them 5k

You're right they may not be 100% pure white. But I don't think it's really that noticeable.

yeah, may not be that noticeable , call me **** but every LED I have swapped in my sedan is 5k same goes with fog HIDs and will be the same with 5k Osram CBIs once I get my headlights done and clear lenses swapped in so no that's not an option anything other than 5k ;D

Going to the grocery store yesterday for some last minute things and I was behind another black S sedan pulling in. I noticed the car drift back, so I somewhat followed her (not stalked!) and ended up parking a few spots down.

On New Years day, in Charlotte, 2 black, 6MT sedans were separated by two parking spaces

5000K is more white than 6000K. As you move higher up the kelvin scale, you will have more color.

Our HID bulbs are more white on the scale vs. other companies.

Here's our scale again for more reference,



Our 6000K is our most popular option and it's what I typically recommend for the best match with our white LEDs.

I wonder what the build statistics are by color? I suspect black is at the top of the list for the 6MT.

Whoah. Steering wheel is complete, and just got a pic of it. Stone stitching and top stripe to match my seats. Awesome. Cannot. Wait. To. Get. This!

No clue if this is going to clash too badly with my maple trim..if so, may just have to get the full CFE interior and sell the maple...

That's a very attractive wheel. Don't know how it would look with Stone plastics all around it, but that pic is beautiful. Very nice.

When does it go on the car?

fortunately, I have a stone v1 interior (all black dash) and I changed my door panels / interior plastics to all black as well. The only stone parts I have left are my seats and the carpet.


Shipping out today, should have it in a few days. You guys will be the first to know when it's on the car
