    Nothing a plasma cutter and a welder can't fix :D but I agree. If it was about an inch less wide on both sides it'd look better. But then again, if you're looking at it it's even with the back of the front fender. Looks fine from behind but head on looks funky. But hey, that's what I get for being a Ginnea pig.

    I had ordered the front minus the light hoop and the rear was supposed to have the hidden hitch.

    Since then, the light hoop has grown on me and I haven't had the need to tow anything since I installed the rear so it is what it is.

    Only because it was old, hard, and brittle. Had to get a new one from the dealer, though. Even they had to order it from 300 miles away.

    I was shocked to see that the old one was COMPLETELY BLOCKED with shiny black crud :eek: . No air could pass thru at all. That may be the reason the underside of the valve cover was very dark, when I had it off a few months back.

    I recommend adding this to your maintenance.

    He was trying to weld a nut onto the plug so he could remove the plug.
    Pretty sure he actually did it.

    I dunno, I only heard that through the grapevine.

    I've seen his welding before and I'm honestly not shocked, just a little surprised.

    Bone stock. For now.
    Ordered some of these LED headlights yesterday. I spoke to their customer service dept and they said it will work just fine in the stock headlight housings. We'll see when they get here on Monday...

    From what I read in the one thread, the high beam throw isn't as far as halogens, correct?
