Haha, alrighty then! They look very similar to the new stainless trim kit that comes on the AMP steps. I got excited thinking there might be a way to modify factory steps to retract. Guess you're excited about the BCS Championship game huh?

What is done to the suspension? Rear shackles? Also what size tires? 305/45-22? The 420s will be my next tire

Stock Suspension. And they are the 420S's but 305/40-22. I'll be getting the 420S's next time I need tires too. I have about 25k on the current set and with just 1 rotate. The set still looks brand new.

Good to hear there. I need something that will last longer then the Pirellis I got. And for some reason those tires look bigger than mine? I have the same exact size now and they look small.

Strongly thinking about getting 50% tint on the windshield and getting the tails tinted when I head home for Christmas break, might see if if I can find someone to paint the stars on my wheels for me or vinyl wrap them.

I'd get those headlights, the grill surround, and the front bumper taken care of before I worried about the star on the wheels.

mine is my dd, I pull about 18-19 doing 73ish on the hwy depending on the wind, hills, etc. Probably a result of longtubes, true dual 2.5", with straight through flowing mufflers, and a 93 octane tune. That was my hwy mileage before I installed the supercharger, haven't checked it after the install yet.
