Thank you very much!

Impact - I agree, I plan on phasing out the chrome, I'll probably Line-X the bumpers and get black nerfs that extend a little lower.

Speedy8 - The angles are ... good? Ha, I don't know.

mSaLL150 - Totally forgot about tint, yeah need to get that done too.

Question for you guys, with the tire size change, how fast am I going when the speedo reads 65? 75? Thanks.

Get a tuner and you'll be able to fix that speedo problem. But I have no clue how fast you will be going at those speeds.

Got an Edge, but haven't set it yet. I was just curious, I'm sure someone knows.

Serena at SDHQ read the thread and filled me in on the answer (again, great shop).

"I saw the speedo question, you are off by a precentage, you should be about 12% off. Take the stock 31" tire which I believe is what you had on there and divide by the size of the new tire 35". So that equals .88 so the 31 is 88% of the size of the tire you have now. So your speedo with be off by 12%. If you are going 50 you are really 56 and so on and so forth."

Looks good. I was wondering what the thugs would look like on a black truck. They do look great actually. I was going to get them on my dsg FX4 but went with the spys for my black truck.
