yeah, was driving down the interstate going about 20 over (95) and there was a state boy sitting up on the off ramp. As soon as I saw him start to roll I lit it up and was somewhere around 165 for two miles until the next off ramp and I took it which led me into a suburb of a major city (where I was heading) and did some side street shuffles and pulled into a huge home depot and parked it and did a little un-needed shopping for an hour then rolled over to the party we were heading too. That cop never had a chance. By the time he got up to speed I was already a good 3/4 miles ahead of him and he probably never even saw me get off the interstate. I love doing that crap. Not sure why they even try, they aren't catching a F'n IS-F!!!

BTW - Nice sig picture...! ! 
Did you actually install a strip of led lights inside the fender vent area?
(details please)
Looks awesome if you did...
I saw one posted a while back with led's mounted on the exterior portion of the vents. IMHO, that didn't look so good in the daytime.

I'm content to know that the car will do over 170 (stock) -- and that's good enough for me.

i saw that one too! you cant see them in the day and if i turn the fogs off they turn off too! the are flat led strips so you cant see anything unless they are on and if its day its hard to see! trust me i wanted it to be clean and you would not even know unless i had them on that i had them!

This reminds me of when i talk about car stuff with my wife! Maybe we just wanna little bit of a thrill once in a while not to be crazy but just to enjoy the car we have! (she also tells me the bad stuff and then says i could die! lol) now days you can die walking into the wrong store being robbed! or better yet get cancer! So i guess for give us who do the need for speed thing every great while and enjoy life!

Glad to hear you actually put them in the fenders..
Another option to wire them could be with the puddle lamps or door light switch.. So when you approach the car they will light up..
I would also then throw in a stand alone switch to Turn ON or OFF on demand.

P.S. - Speeding is Good, but only on a closed course or race track....
