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.
