'Extreme' Grand Cherokee in Downtown Tijuana


This Grand Cherokee is a beauty. Long arms, 35" Goodyears, 3 rows of stadium lighting!!:o



I saw this beauty on Friday night. The driver gave me the thumbs up when I took this photo!:bounce:

I wish I had an extra Pole Line Run sticker for his Jeep..(I am almost out)

Nice, I looks like it could go most anywhere.
I don't get the light bars on top however.

Whatever floats your boat, eh?

Not sure what is the point of the extra light bars.. perhaps if he bought a better light bar, then one would suffice.

In order to get the best use from such driving lights, mounting them as high as practical on the vehicle is the best equipment placement. Those LED lights are the cat's burro ....one row would be a huge improvement....three is the bling factor that guys get into with their toys. Gearheads are like that.....:coolup:

Over the years, I've had numerous offroad light combinations on a variety of vehicles. Was never a fan of mounting positions higher than hood level for 3 reasons:
1. Glare off the hood and/or windshield.
2. Any dust in the air causes a reflection. It's like driving in fog with the high beams. The lead vehicle and still air, not so much of a problem.
3. Light fills in the dips and potholes, eliminating some depth perception.

Why are you driving at night? Is this more bling? Slow down.

If the top light is set back there is no glare on the windshield some will paint the hood with a flat black paint to reduce glare on the hood.

Hmm. Worked really well for those two cars in that last race. Going in opposite directions, dust and bright lights. What could go wrong?

Whammo!!
