New brake light and license plate frame
« on: March 31, 2015, 02:05:05 PM »
I finally got around to installing my $5 brake light add on. I know they are probably ones for $250 that put out 0.09 more lumens, but I'm good with this.

There is a golf coarse surrounding his neighborhood. Speed bumps and crossings, nice stuff.

Wayne, where did you get the "Just say no to Golf" license plate frame?  I really would like one of those.  Thanks.

$5 LED light bar off of FleaBay attached to the back edge of the Givi luggage plate. The photo is of course meaningless. The LED light is burn your retinas bright. For when the drunk golfers are on the road.  :BEER:

As for the license plate frame, I won it at a rally a while back as a door prize. I kind of like it.  :D

Greatest license plate frame ever. Colin Edwards would approve.

I love it as a filler for that gap and its utilitarian nature.
I always figured Duct-tape got way too much credit as the DIY/Self sufficient, manly man/Red-Green rutting sign of self reliance, while PVC languished in anonymity.
My experience says use something as an anti-seize on the threads.

I'd like to find a frame that says, "Just say no to monogamy."
They say that polygamy is one wife too many.
The same could be said for monogamy.

Yep, those PVC threads tend to bond together very tightly.

Probably Fleabay or Amazon.

I know the first few I had, the color faded. The next batch I bought, I sprayed with a heavy layer of clear coat on the seams to help waterproof them.

Peace be upon him.  It would be an exquisite form of torture, in my opinion, to wire my eyelids open and strap me to a chair in front of a golf game.
