    I'm talking about playing along to it.

    I always seem to lose my voice when I listen to Metallica while driving...

    My woman did this and it helped her when she went to buy. A little extra knowledge never hurt.

    :wave: welcome to the site. Debadging is very easy. Like billy said alot of guys use fishing line. I used fishing line and a hair dryer, warmed up the badge to help the fishing line slice through the adhesive. Slide the line behind the badge and use a sawing motion. You should be able to get it off with no damage to the paint, then use goo gone to get the rest of the adhesive off.

    The light bar I have is an NFab bar. My fiance bought it off Amazon a couple years ago for just over $100. The powder coat that comes on it is thin, I coated mine with bedliner.

    For tint, I used a place in Billerica. I'll try to find the name, but they're a chain and did a nice job.

    It's getting easier these days... No more retrofits :(

    Rates are awesome now! I bought a couple years ago and alreay refinanced because the rates just kept dropping.

    Pretty much this. Get a good lawyer and you're all set.

    I am but I won't jump until I see what it does below 3k RPM. Plus, I'm intrigued by the guy who made the spacer from a cut up manifold!

    My only fear is you have to have the top perfectly smooth where you cut. I'm not sure if a belt sander would do it or not. If I can find an old manifold, I'd give it a shot!

    You mean have a spacer made or mill down the top of an existing manifold? I need to find someone in a college tech major with access to a CNC machine :D

    Brand new, only a tonneau cover.
    Excellent advice and I will try that tonight. As a avid fisherman, I have the tools I need to do this job no problem. Thank you!

    Now to go shopping for that light bar! :D

    I was but got sick of the bullshit excuses. I did check on it again and saw one guy take a stock intake and cut it down for a spacer

    Oops should have read further. I bet you could get the plastic intake close on a belt sander. We had a straight piece of steel that we used to use, attach sand paper and just run it back and forth
