    Still need to wet sand, polish and wax. Color looks a little off but probably because its not all nice and shinny yet.

    install master kit - $190

    assembled 3rd - $600 (after $300 core charge return)

    and tons of shipping...

    then install costs...you'd have to talk to jace for pricing if you're looking to go his route

    So for many many reasons and SD's ridiculous price on living, me my gf and some friends are going to be moving to Denver soon. Just curious, how many people are riding 2 wheel drive trucks out there? Im thinking its probably best to trade in the truck for 4 wheel drive

    Your gonna love Denver man, and I would definitely recommend to trade it in for a 4wd if possible, it can get pretty damn snowy and icy here.

    Oh yeah the gf has family out there and I got some friends out there so we try and get out there once a year. Freakin love denver man. Yeah funny story, we were out there in the winter last year and decided to meet up with some friends. We had my gf's cousins manual vw jetta. We all went out and got shit faced and had a great time, wake up in the morning to a down pour of snow. I had to drive a damn jetta 20 min on icy freeways, sliding around, hung over as hell.

    HAHA no good man, you would definitely be happier with a 4wd... I cruise by people in the snow no problems with my truck and I have shitty stocker tires on it. I live in Boulder, but I go to Denver once a week, its the place to be

    Big tires, big lift, Lots of stuff's.
    If your not wheeling 2wd will get you around just fine. But if you have the money for a 4wd it would be nice.

    There's some places that you can take your driving test that isn't a DMV. Then take the paper back to the DMV and they'll issue your license.

    I had to reapply for my license a few years ago when the court house never credited a ticket I paid. So they showed an unpaid ticket for 2 years which suspended my license. After I proved I paid it through my bank statements, they cleared it, but I still had to take my test again which I think was ridiculous. Anyway, got my permit, next day went to a driving school place, paid 50 bucks, and had my license issued.

    I dont know any places around here that would do it.. mine was the same thing, paid the ticket on time, then they said they didn't get payment, even tho i have a bank statement that said i paid it, took the test, passed it (missed one total) and now i gotta wait..

    no idea where or what to look for, for something like you said.. :/

    imma cry if nick doesn't respond by saturday night.. :<

    Yea it almost happened again when I just changed insurance. They said my license was inactive. The court saw I cleared it, DMV's computer doesn't talk to their computers. So I had to call the court, have them fax over the paper that it was cleared, then take that to the DMV. And they wouldn't fax it straight to the DMV...



    The place I went to was right next to the DMV near me, I don't remember the name. Ask the DMV up by you that you can take your driving test.
