For those of you that haven't been following the news or the NWC forum we've had quite a bit of snow here in the PNW. I've really learned to appreciate AWD paired to an M66, this thing is a beast! Anyways here's a couple links to vids and a couple pics. Enjoy :tup:

They look kinda cool, but the perspective make them look crappy. Since the camera is held so low, it shows the lights, opposed to the white glow... IMHO.

They are a bit extreme in these photos. They are just linked to the dome lights and only come on when the car is unlocked.

Snow tires bro. I'll get some track tires for them this summer. Carson is rocking the VSTs for the snow as opposed to bald tires on Pegs.

Under body lights are gay. Reminds me of the early 1990s.

Killer retro mod! Every mini truck from 1989-1992 had the underbody lumination...the thunder bass line of of Salt 'n Pepa's hit track PUSH IT could be heard in any 3 block square on any given Friday night. Ah, the memories!

I wonder what Danny's car would look like with chrome Pathfinder wheels to match the undercarriage lighting ;)

Back in the day, if you lowered your Nissan pickup mysterious people would leave a welcome basket on your doorstep with chrome Pathfinder wheels, a Toyota front bumper and a voucher for a free purple paint job. Miss those days.

Where it all started over 20 years ago...illest, slammed society, fatlace? Of course none of these names existed yet.....the internet didn't exist yet. We still slammed cars because that's all we had to do!

Back in those days, moar low meant notching some frame or taking your ride to SoCal..

You would.

But seriously, you redeemed yourself w/ the explanation. I was going to have to sell some Danny stock.

Car looks great Danny :tup: and I still think it's cool you have TDRs for snow wheels. Looks like the Goodyears on the VSTs are decent for the snow as well.
