    This makes me want to dip my truck

    Did you peel off the old or just go right over it?

    Also how much did you have to modify your arb or improvise with placement to fit an x20 10k. I am very tempted to get one. I am good enough with an angle grinder and can weld if needed to fit it.

    I just went right over it.

    As for the winch, I just had to clock it in the right orientation. You can clock both sides. It's a pain in the dick to do the motor side, but once you figure out how to take practically the whole damn thing apart it's fairly easy lol

    Just need to do a little detail work with the xacto knife now, and then add some stickers from @CBoy808 and it will be finished!

    4 gallons is a good amount, I wouldn't do any less for full coverage, because you're bound to miss a spot or two during each coat.

    I pulled the dip off my fender flares and after 5 years of being dipped, I saw no degredation to the paint underneath. Just as long as you use a basic color for your base coat, I do not think you will have any issues with the factory paint.


    These are factory color matched black sand pearl fender flares



    I then re-dipped them with 8 cans of black plastidip lol

    Bike update - after dicking with HIDs for a bit, kept having a flicker going on whenever I flipped on the high beam or the fan kicked on, so I figured HID was too much for this little battery. Went with some fancy LEDs and I'm very happy with the results. And no flicker since they draw less power. And no one flashed me at all so I guess the glare isn't too bad.

    GTR Ultra 2 for low beam and DDM Saber ProX 3000k for high beam (Since GTR doesn't make 3000k LEDs and I wanna be a ricer boi). Picked these after looking on bulbfacts.com. Super useful website!

    No need for a projector retrofit after all.
