After googling a few topics I ran into a thread here. Stating similar things have happened to other users. They looked at the internet fuse box and noticed fuse #4 for "TAILS" was the culprit. A few minutes ago, I went to Autozone, purchased the same Red - 10Amp - Low Profile fuses to replace the blown out fuse (which it was cuse the middle bridge on the fuse was burnt and severed incase any one else runs into this problem). After swapping it out and testing the lights the fuse burnt out immediately. I burnt 3 separate fuses already and have not come fixed this problem. Unfortunately for me electrical problems are things I have not come across yet... Please tell me there's someone else on here that has dealt with this. The likely suspect to me are anything associated to fuse #4, along with the Hyperflash Relay I bought aftermarket via ft86speedfactory. Before I try anything crazy can someone confirm what I should do step by step so I don't mess this all up? :/
I haven't touched ANYTHING electrical related in YEARS. the last time I touched anything were my two shitty ebay sidemarker LEDs that just burn out all the time. (MAYBE THIS IS THE PROBLEM?!?! XD )

quit putting fuses in it till you find the short.
What is the last (even non-electrical) thing you did with your car?
I'd suggest you start looking around there.
If you don't find it, start visually tracing the circuits that fuse controls, looking for a burnt spot or a blackened wire.
Bubba suggests you put a 30 amp fuse in that slot then look for sparks or a smoking wire. He always does this when the car is outside and he has a BIG fire extinguisher handy -
