    Sorry if this already came up in this thread but how much trimming was required to get your duratracs to fit in there?

    Your running an aftermarket front bumper right? If so, you wont need to trim. All I trimmed was a little bit of plastic on the inside of the front bumper.

    Finished up painting the radiator, relocating the horns, and painting the grille black. What a relief with the chrome gone.

    Lookin good! I wish I would have painted my radiator, etc. before having jace install my bumper because he said it is a PITA to get on and off so I don't want to take it off again, but I need to paint behind it to get rid of the silver.

    Yeah all I did was take off the grill and its right there. You shouldn't have a problem unless the center hoop really blocks the radiator?

    Put a real light coat of high temp paint. I read a lot about it and didn't really hear of any problems. It just makes the front end look better IMO
