Yes I will be there around 6:00. I added a FASS system and I'm going to shim the pump plug to get more rack travel on Thursday if I got time. I hope I can get into the 11's.

Deffinetly original, i love it, sure beats the same old colors. I am putting a new frame under my truck and am goin to get it painted but i am going subtle, just a good dark blue metalic and a silver powder coated frame.

When you stand far away the truck is subtle. You dont notice the detail until you get up close, which I love. I just gave the guy the truck and artistic freedom and that is what I got. The only problem is people either love it or hate it, but that alright with me.

I put new fenders on it and filled a lot of holes from the visor, bed rails ect. When everything was said I think I have around $5000 in it. I know the guys who did the body and paint work so they cut me a real good deal (about 1/2 off for the body work and paint). I also had them do it during a slow period so they needed some money.

The helmet was an extra $150.

The next thing I want to do is change the covers on the clearance lights. I was thinking clear or smoked but I can only find hole replacment lights with covers not just the covers. Does anybody know where I can get some. I looked at styling concepts but they only sold the whole light assy. with different color covers.

Try Recon Accesories for the cab lights.

That truck looks AWESOME. That paintjob will put you into the 11's for sure.
Keep it off the Salty MI. roads it is way too awesome
