    Since my truck is new, the any time fog mod and the bedrail led's. Possibly doing 1/0awg power and ground cable upgrade to future proof the truck for more stuff.

    you guys?

    Mail came late, looks like i'm installing new LED all the way around and finishing up my plasti-derp projects. Only the rear bumper left!!

    Question: Should I plasti dip the entire bumper or just the part that's silver? Think 2 different shades of black would look off?

    I'll be putting a new radiator in my BMW, fixing a coolant leak on my 89 pickup, washing my tacoma, putting a hitch on my wife's venza for her bike rack, mowing the lawn, and hopefully getting my daughter off the training wheels on her bike. And my wife wants to have a yard sale somewhere in there too. Going to be a busy weekend.

    I went away last weekend to avoid all the traffic of the long weekend people trying to get away. So this weekend, the roommates are gone and I am going to catch up on some Plasti Dip projects that I want to do. Have to fix some dip projects as well. I got some rock chips from this past winter that I want to fix. If I have the time I might even paint my door handles MGM. It's going to be a busy weekend.
