Any guesses on how many months before these are banned in most areas for the potential for obscene messages/pictures/etc.?

'cause remember, folks.. you can feed from 'em for a few months, but then you can't see them again for 18 years.. :p

this isthe quote I like best from the....info thingamapoppper they had-
"The only bright side is that it looks as though the catalysmic environmental damage could reach us before the price of these gets reasonable, thereby destroying civilization before we see one of these on the road. I guess there is a reason to look forward to the end of the world after all."


I now pray for Armageddon...lol

Okay I would never put those on a vehicle of mine, but the technology behind it is pretty darn cool.

Nothing says 'class' like Mickey Mouse or the naked chrome mudflap girl on your $12K rims. ;)

And another thing...if you have to put 'Hey Baby, Call Me!' and your phone number on your frickin' rims, how big of a loser are you!

I wonder if they could set something like that up for the 2.3 guys and there cam gear.

I mean it would be cool to have a ford logo on the cam gear while its spinning.
