    New Coverking Neosupreme seat covers. Went with the Charcoal/black. I was a little worred about the color match it matches the interior exactly. My truck is gray/black dash. Thought about going with the Neoprene but I couldn't bring myself to shell out the extra $120+

    I'll snag an actual pic tomorrow, dark out now.

    Thanks sir,

    I think of doing the BHLM all the time just a noob at modding and I read that even some of the experienced guys have trouble doing it!

    taking mine to get aligned RIGHT tomorrow...

    tired of Tire Kingdom jacking me around. I've been up there three times and my front tires still look like this \ - / and I know it's not because there's no more adjustment; there's PLENTY of room for the adjustment bolts to me moved

    got an appointment at a shop tomorrow that's known to be good with lifted trucks. mine's only up maybe 2.25" from stock, so it shouldn't be that difficult...

    it really isn't that difficult

    once you get over the fear of putting your headlights in an oven, it's a piece of cake (no pun intended) :D

    Well, I technically didn't do it, but ANOTHER rock hit my windshield a couple of days ago while driving home from work. I heard it but couldn't see anything. Tonight as I walked up to it I saw a crack creeping up from the bottom of the windshield on the driver's side just right where my VIN number is. The rock must have made the chip, then the past couple of days of driving probably rattled it and now its starting to spider out. FML. This will be the second windshield I've had to replace since I bought it brand new last July. The first time a huge rock hit my windshield was the same day I made my first payment in September. :annoyed:

    I guess I should be thankful it happened now because I was about to make an appointment at the tint shop to tint the entire front windshield plus the strip at the top. I had done it to the first one the same weekend I bought the truck, but hadn't gotten around to doing it since I replaced it. That was $120 down the drain.

    Damn!! My strip is on the way as we speak and I was doing the exact same thing!!! Glad to see how good it looks before I finish mine. How did you hook them up? Switch controlled, tied into the headlights, tied into the parking lights? Looks AWESOME!! :D
