    Nice! You took the chrome off? And how did you get the bottom part of your bumper (where you cut it) to curve back in like that and look, well, professional? Haha

    I never had a problem with my OME shocks. Though where I live we don't use salt, we use a mix of stuff. I actually heard OME has one of the best corrosion resistance shocks on the market.

    260k on the factory shocks... They were shot, I mean my 5 yr old son can work the complete action on them. I liked them, but it was time for an upgrade.

    Hahaha !!! too funny...:D


    Actually, I really did trim off 14" off my OEM bumper, 14" of ugly plastic that did nothing but hold up those 2 ugly ass turn signals & the last pic I put up is current, the '02 front bumper I use now was given to me by taco_me_elmo (Micah) local member here in SD, the beauty of it is it bolts right up & you can un screw & remove the lower valance

    Installed a Wally World blue LED light bar in my dash...cause I got intimidated when I actually took my dash apart to replace the real bulbs :D I did get it back together without any screws left over though! This light is one of two that comes with a cigarette lighter socket power adapter that has a power button built in. I put the other bar in my glove box. I need to rig a permanent diffuser as I just have a piece of paper over it right now to get the right level of light and even it out across the gauges. But it seems pretty good for a jerry-rigged job ;) The light is available here: http://www.walmart.com/ip/Custom-Accessories-8-Aluminum-Slim-Line-LED-Light-Blue-2pk/16386494
