Ilium highway pegs and BMW aux tail light

My weekend project. The folks at Ilium were nice enough to send me a new part when I "experimented with the design" and dicked up the original. :huh No charge! Many thanks!

Drop it

Take the pig out into the driveway and drop it on each side. This will "Adventurize" the pig and keep you from spending money on farkles that don't really do anything. :D
