    In 2-3 year's time probably...it will happen the same time as I get my Icon, Pelfreybilt H/C, and 255's/285's.

    Did you get new wheels? Or did you paint them? Cant tell from my phone. Truck looks great btw. Nice n shiny.
    I will most likely have mine professionally detailed this fall. I have no time to do it myself :(

    Just have the rings and center caps plasti-dipped for now. I can't guarantee a professional quality job (could probably get 2/3rds of the way there :rolleyes:) but I could probably do it for quite a bit cheaper if you're interested.

    This is mine after 4 hours of washing, claying, and waxing if you didn't see the post on it last page.

    It's all right :laugh:

    In other news, I may have some new pictures up tomorrow of the new 1/2'' top plate spacers installed tonight. Not a huge difference, but they are helping compensate for the weight of the bumper and the upcoming All-Pro IFS Skid. Huge thanks to Skygear for the help with install!

    TOYTEC TOP PLATE SPACER KIT

    Got a updated picture of the new Top Plate Spacer Kit.

    I think it added almost its advertised lift height in the front (3/4'') but it will probably drop a 1/4'' once I get the All-Pro IFS skid on Wednesday or Thursday.

    I will probably be taking a whole new round of updated pictures once I get the skid installed so I'm updated on all my recent mods.

    AP IFS SKID

    Installed my AP IFS Skid with much grunting and cussing today. The spray paint did not come out well at all since the weather is sitting at about 85% humidity, but I tried to get a fan in the garage and it started to dry better after I did a light sand on the bad coats.

    Lol try installing the ato 1/4 skid by yourself. Tip for when you need to remove it for any reason- floor jack is your friend. Use the jack to lift it up and down then you can line up the bolts easily.

    :laughing:

    I had my brother help me hold it a little bit but I mainly just held it up with my knee while I threaded the rear bolts a little bit. And the floor jack would be great...if I had one. :(

    Also, I should be dumping my exhaust on Saturday so I'll post in here if you want to see how it turns out.

    Worried about it passing emissions test? I have talked to other VA dudes who have done it and they have no problems with inspections/emissions. Hopefully, I won't either :rolleyes:

    Unfortunately, I do know...If some shop doesn't pass me, I will just go to another. Shouldn't have any problems though.
