Heh, cute.

A whole lotta green meenies there! Now ya just need a piece of Kryptonite to power 'em up!

A thousand? Heck, that bag dun look like it could hold 200 of the 5mm ones, let alone a thou. Or did I get my leg pulled off?

Any chance of a pic with something from the truck in a pic with a few of each for scale? Side-mirror, headlight-lens, 4mm locknut from an axle mebbe?

Makes me wonder, do the bezels come in gunmetal, or just bare aluminum? Never liked a whole lotta 'bling', shiny just makes my light-sensitive eyes squintier than normal!
