    I did that except I put way too much essential oil on the cabin filter and it would take your breath away, way too strong. It was called Mountain Pine and it smelled like someone sh#@ a Christmas tree. Next time I’ll just try a couple of drops, lol.

    C4 Rock Runner finally showed up on Friday last week (ordered on BF lol) and then modded it with my own custom bullbar on top yesterday. Overall a great bumper, super lightweight and I love the look, going to continue tinkering with it though.

    As it came from them:

    RF one is so good too, I was really torn between all of them, but I wanted to remain as light as possible. I like the rock runner, not in love with it though. Hence the tweaks. I'll get it there though, I wasn't quite ready to make my own front bumper from scratch lol.
    Absolutely feel free! These are it on Amazon, I've got a custom 3d printed clip that clips them onto the grill next to the letters, it's not an off the shelf thing unfortunately. https://amzn.to/4gt3a9F

    Very nice & tight. Did you weld that bullbar on yourself? Nice skill.

    I'm confused. :confused: Not sure if I can start whining now, because they're Raptor lights, or not. Set me straight. ;)

    Here's a 3 for 1 guys n gals.

    Picked up some 20' fence pipe at home depot, spotted a taco, picked up a latte, and replaced rusted bent horizontal on side fence gates.

    Yep! it's just 1.5in DOM tubing and I bent the one side and realized it was pretty spot on for how I envisioned it. So I bent the other side, cut it down about 1.5 inches and tack welded it on. I drove around for all of the past day and a half with it tack welded to make sure TSS wasn't going to throw a fit and then I finished welded it up last night, no issues.

    Man half the reason I keep raptor lights on my truck is just to stir up folks, I think they look good but every time someone makes a comment, I'm like well now I'm definitely not taking them off. :rofl:

    Went in for 20k mile service and they said my battery was bad and got a brand new one under warranty. To be honest there was no sign of an issue.
