Car headlight HID Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4

I spent the week prepping the garage for the annual Super Bowl party. The walls are now dark green as planned, with some brick red. The ceiling is still white so it's by no means cave-like, but the green adds flavor.

The garage was good for watching the game. There may be some photos from it, but I didn't take any on account of loaning my memory card to Bobby after shooting the GBM show. And since my point-and-shoot cannot do it justice, photos of the Medieval Gridiron championship trophy - awarded at the party - are also forthcoming.

Since the 3000gt had a headlight out I upgraded it to hids. The lamp on the Duc has been excellent, and I am not disappointed with these.

For whatever reason I decided to do the fences this weekend. Well, I decided to start the fences. I'm maybe half done.
