    Thanks. I finally had something worth posting!

    Thank you! Yes, they are pretty close to the MGM color. Grill surround is also chrome. I was considering the black but happy with my decision.

    im gonna make a cover for the hole in a day or so, but needed to get my truck from my house to the shop so this works for now, also the smaller hole was already there so I just matched it into the bellhousing, time will tell if it cracks or anything.... but if it does I will just add structural bracing to it so...lol

    Left work early today and was bored so i swapped my grille in a snow storm from this (it doesn't look that bad just really icy) [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    to this:

    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Also ordered the custom car grills insert that should be here by the weekend. Going to cut out the middle section and swap it with the new insert and install Raptor style lights.


    Edit: does anyone know how to embed these images so they'll be a smaller size? Sorry lol

    Double edit: looks like from now on I'll be resizing these uploading to imgur

    Was curious if adding some butyl sound mat under the hood would help much..I noted reduced vibes coming through to the truck under 2k RPM and it felt smoother on a steep, first gear hill climb.

    @At The Helm makes a solid product. If anything it provides more tie down options and a beverage opener.

    I was thinking this was a good idea but worried about it being to hot for butyl under the hood. Interested in knowing how it works for you. Thanks

    Besides rotating tires and changing the oil, I typically disconnect my battery when working on the truck. Do that and no worries.
