    that's a heck of an undertaking especially with arosol cans. if you have an easy up or something maybe you can move it around and keep sections in the shade

    Finished wiring the blue sea fuse block and under hood led's. Did the hoseclamp tailgate mod.

    Changed the gear oil in the front and rear diffs and transfer case. I looks like the breather on the rear diff is working fine but when I pulled the fill plug it pushed a bunch of air and I couldn't figure out if it was sucking or blowing. Also the diff fluid was a little charcoal color but the transfer case was barely carmel colored.

    i've never tried the rustoleum brand of dip let me know what you think hopfully truck will look pretty cool and actually be cooler. if you have too many problems you can probably get by with only dipping the roof and the center section of the hood to deflect heat i would think and still look pretty cool

    That looks awesome! Now did you order the blue bumper or did you order a black/chrome one and sand it then paint it? Got a quote from my body shop guy and it'd be $300 to color match mine silver including sandblast. I think I can do it myself but wondering your strategy.

    Two questions- first off my fog lights have gotten moisture in them which in finally giving me the excuse to get LED pods as fog lights cause of the reflective stuff is peeling up.
    What are the benefits of white vs. Amber fogs and should I do it?
    Secondly, where do I buy the brackets to do it? It's a '07 so it has the bigger fog lights.
    I love the smoked fogs but figured I could even toy with the pods a little to keep the front black. But here's what I've got to play with. I'm on vacation now and I wanna order the parts so I have something to play with when I get back home

    I am derping almost all of the truck white. The fenders will be derped black as well as the rear bumper and some minor trim pieces. I didn't want a black truck but for $7500 + fees and taxes... it's a good deal.

    I love plastidip! My wife had paint damage on parts of her civic.
    But I had trouble getting no streaks by can so I bought gun and she chose color changing purple dip. I was skeptical but it has been over a year through maine winter and salt.. she might have washed it twice. car is dirty but it shows color.

    I'm pretty sure rigid industries makes brackets to hold pods in there. Also if you plan on using them on the road, please get DOT/SAE compliant ones so you're not totally blinding everyone.

    Give me some money so I can fill in this info
    For what they are they are a little pricey. That being said, I have a dozen or so of them. Nifty!
