    I agree that the Sport/OR Grille is nice but leaves something to be desired. I don't like the Pro Grille on a MGM AC. So I was an early painter and added a TRD emblem and it looks very good IMHO. Best $15.00 mod I've seen!

    I think truck color plays into my grille preference. I have seen many that look good with the black grilles. I just think the "faux" chrome grille looks best on my blue. Bottom line is what makes the owner happy. Don't care what anyone else thinks of my truck. I like it and I bought it. I make mods for my liking. That is what is so good about the 3rd gen trucks. There are so many mod options to please nearly everyone. The next thing I will do is upgrade my speakers. I may be old but I still like my music. Want to get the bass without going to a subwoofer.

    I haven't decided if I want full or slim yet. I like both for different reasons.

    Thanks for the info. I am thinking about 6112's as well. When you say the ride is more stiff, are you referring to when you moved from 3rd to 4th? Or are you saying that 6112's are stiffer than stock? I'm thinking of 6112's and 5160's in the rear because I'm looking for a super smooth, buttery ride on road and better performance for higher speed, light offroading ... so "stiffer" scares me a little bit.

    Also, anyone had 5100's and 6112's or had enough experience with both to describe difference in ride/ performance.

    Trying to decide if it's worth spending the extra $$ on 6112 + 5160's or just get 5100's all the way around.

    Looks great man, like what you've done with it and would love to see it with the racks on. I've been debating those since i got my truck last year.

    Couldn't believe what I saw on the news last night. Grown men crying like fucking babies because the team is moving to LA from where they live SD. My teams moving boo hooo.

    It's a team that they have nothing to do with. Oh, you live in the same city or your bought 200 jerseys, it's not your team. I am so over hearing people say my team and such. If don't have anything to do with the team then it's not your team. Hell, if you serve peanuts at the game and said it was your team I would agree, you have something to do with the actual team.

    Rant is over.


    I really don't get why the Rams and Chargers are going to share the same home.

    Yes, I opted for this FabFours bumper when my plastic bumper cap was destroyed. The parking sensors work with it but I lost the BSM system - too bad. Nonetheless, my mirrors have been replaced with the RAV4 mirrors with the convex addition and I'm overall very happy - especially with the steel bumper. It also worked just fine with the OEM towing package.

    Yeah I'll likely end up with a paw patrol set as well as a couple others. She's 3, my 9 year old got a $1300 full size canopy bed at 3 which just ain't happenin this time lol.

    I'm not sad they moved at all. I''m from the bay area and people ask me why I don't root for a team in where I live. Simply I love Seau and what he brought to the game and I rooted for the Chargers and the City. They can move all they want just don't re brand. There's a lot of passion in football and if you don't have it then you don't. Some people just go a little bit overboard.

    Was it a easy install? Could you add a picture of yours please.

    Didn't realize you loose the BSM system. I turned mine off about 6 months ago by accident and just realized the to other day. I guess it will not matter much.

    Eh I've got money, not as much as i wish I did but such is life lol. I'm more than happy to do it honestly. Making my wife and kids happy makes me happy. My wife is a stay at home mom and never bitches when I buy something for my truck. I really can't ask for more than that.

    Is the new logo really going to be the Dodger logo with a bolt? I don't think that's a good idea, but then again I'm not a artist.

    I grew up playing ice hockey and understand the fan deal but crying and burning shit because the team moves. The US is so pathetic now, this anti bully shit and PC shit needs to go. We are raising participation trophy kids now in this country. Russia is going to own us.

    The install isn't too bad, depends if you have features attached,etc. Here a a few pictures taken just minutes ago. Heavy snow here and chains are needed in the two feet of snow in the hillside narrow streets.
    *FabFours rear bumper
    *Bushwacker fender flares
    *SSO front bumper with Warn winch and BD 20" bar

    Note the grill painting with horizontal bars left alone.
