Yup. I have a hard time driving with regular mirrors now.

For those of you that don't have these, I HIGHLY suggest you pick up a set. They're going to be very difficult to find soon.

You're not back are you?

I was supposed to get my tires, but they sent Albert the wrong size. They just met up with me.

Got my tires this past weekend though. Saw Tai as we were leaving to take pics. What is he doing?

Arnold, hit up Steve or Wanda ASAP. According to what Steve told MJ on his last trip to LA, he's running low on the Euro convex mirros.

I believe Steve is gonna have another trip to Cali in November or December...something like that.
