So a guy in one of my facebook groups just posted this.... Picture is from Japan from a v36 skyline sedan . I just want to leave this here because it has to be seen.

They're big, like IPL big.
I haven't measured them, but I believe you are correct.

Yup that's Robbie's car from Japan Auction Parts. I met him up when I was in Osaka just recently, they were so nice to us they even threw an impromptu car meet together!

We are still editing our pictures, but here are a few quick edits I did.

I'm really jealous of you seeing it in person. Work of art.

It's been 3 weeks since I ordered the bag of samples from Redline Goods. Not much I can do here except continue waiting.

It's also been 3 weeks since I ordered a winter-only shift **** from LatheWerks, although in this case he said he would cut the **** for me today. Yay! Because it's cold out. Half inch of snow last night. Not that I can actually drive anywhere on snow until I swap rims, but still... Yay!

And while all that was happening, or not happening, Mike's fog light group-buy with The Retrofit Source was ordered and shipped in a matter of days. I'm forcing myself to sit on these fogs until Spring 2016, but they sure are pretty.

Hey John, they are a 45 minute install. You've already removed the chrome rings before on your fog light trim. Then, you just have to grab a small 8mm wrench to get the one bolt holding the fogs in. Next, assemble the harness which is very easy. Finally, re-install the fogs back onto the car. The only tricky part is re-bolting the passenger side fog light housing. I have huge hands and I was able to do everything through the wheel wells.

I appreciate it, thanks. But it's OK... I know how to do the work. I've removed and reinstalled my fogs a few times over the years.

It's not the specific effort that's giving me pause. It's winter. I'll be wrapping the lenses in amber tint again, and figure to get through this next winter before exposing the new tint and new fogs to crappy salt, snow and ice.

Or... I may do it over thanksgiving. That might happen, too. I'm fickle.
