Free painted CHILI RED R56 headlight and trim rings... see details inside.

Here we go again... pay attention!



I’ll make this super easy. Since orange is apparently my new favorite color, the first person that can tell me how many M&M peanuts are in this jar, they will win a set of headlight trim rings painted in CHILI RED.









The contest will end next Sunday at midnight. At the end of the allowed time, if the correct number has not been guessed, the person closest without going over will win.



There are a few rules this time.

1) In order to qualify, you must have a minimum of 50 posts.

2) This is for the front headlight trim rings only. If you want the rears done, it’s on you. (65.00)

3) Shipping will be 15.00

4) You must post pics when installed.

5) one guess per member.



Simple really... one more thing, if you want me to supply the headlight rings so you don’t have to take yours off and ship them to me, I believe the cost of new rings is about 50 bucks for a pair.

Good luck!



Mark

Thanks bud... I changed the rules to make it easier. I was afraid that since there were no duplicate posts allowed and the first 55 people wouldn’t respond...lol.

Can we get the volume of the jar? or maybe a picture of one of the sides?

Just realized this is for Chili Red... All that math gone to waste, ah well. Thanks for setting this up, though!

I've got a Yellow MCS... so I don't think silver will go with the "look" I'm going for. I'd rather someone else go in and try their luck! If you have a black ring competiton, I'll totally chime in though!

Off topic: nice work with Oscar!

Sorry guys, no winners this time. No one guessed within 5 peanuts. There was a winner for the midnight black trim rings.

We’ll do this again soon...
