    Nice, where's the house? Looks kinda like houses in the D'andrea area.

    Same builder, but this one is in Dayton. Drive will suck but the price was too good to pass up.

    Not quite, but I haven't really put any effort into them yet. I figure we will do some decent wheelin during the camping trip... So after that I'll do a full detail and buff that shit out.

    Just don't go crazy pressure wise. Then after you buff, give it a good wax.

    Bought some 7" HID driving lights online.. I didn't realize they were as long as they are wide. No way I'll be able to mount these things! Damn

    Yep those 7" are massive housings. It's the size of the reflector and the built in ballasts.

    Are you buying one of Eric's bumpers? You may have to have him put some tabs on the hoop over the grill. The bumper doesnt sit much out from the grill. I plan on buying some lightforce 170s and I might have to remove some grill material to get them to fit. Or just go deep lip satoshi...

    Yeah, I plan on a bumper from Eric. I think I'm going with aluminum. I may just sell these lights and save for some LED.

    Cool. I would like to see the output of a big 30 or 40" light bar. I have a Rigid 10" on my Rhino. I am not really that impressed.

    Hmm. Well I was planning on a 30" when I get my bumper. Which by the time I put my order in, should be spring time.. I also want to do two of the 4" blocks as well. We will see.
