It looks good on the inside, reminds me of looking out of my friends 2010 Mustang where you can hardly see the front of the road. Hopefully when I lower it, it'll definitely give me that look of a huge engine.

It's their version of a supercab Lightning body kit...pretty slick looking imo - and I never say that of body kits. But this one appears somewhat OE.

Where can I buy a heat protection pad for under the hood?



All new. Only thing I didn't like on the step side, it has a rough spot of paint, but, I said screw it and I'll just get Line-X.
Looks good!

Seen this nice truck driving by and had to see what you guys think his rim size was.
How did you resolve the film on the instrument cluster you mentioned?

I think I know what you're talking about, and I haven't bought them yet.

Funny story is, I'm at work and you know the Army is a 9-5 job, and the place closed at 5, so I had the wife take my new credit card and pay for it. She grabbed an old credit card and it didn't work, so they just 'scanned' the credit card, and gave her the truck and I just gotta pay for it on Monday. But they didn't want the hood or valance to go in the back of the truck because they didn't want to scratch the new paint on the bed. So, Monday you'll have pictures.

Still coming, if that's what I think you guys are talking about.

What do you mean? My gauges are still off, that's all I know.

Ha, yeah I was going to do the black, in the middle but the paint guy said the black would fade faster than the red, so I just got it all red. But, as for other things, I need to still buy the stuff I need.

Did a few things this evening.



Guess I should paint that mount.

I told myself I'd never put a sticker on my truck, because I find it stupid, but, this site is very addicting and I had to show some love.



So, this evening my wife and I decided to go out to get some pizza. When I used my turn signal, it was blinking like crazy. So, as we left the place, I turned the truck on, turned my left turn signal on, and found out my whole rear isn't turned on. So, it's a good thing I didn't pay for the work just yet.

I scratched the green tint off, laid over the red film, and just kept the stock bulbs, so when it's on, the bulbs light up on the red film and it gives me red gauges.
