    looks good man! :thumbsup:

    I'm really digging the bushwackers on the MGM. I wonder if I could pull them off on a pyrite mica... haha

    How are the AVS vent visors holding up? I've been looking into getting a set and have heard mixed reviews on the AVS and EGR ones, but cant justify selling my left nut for a set of weathertech.

    I <3 my weathertechs :D

    The AVS in channels look just as nice but i don't know much about them....but i'm sure they do the job just as well as the weathertechs. :thumbsup:

    My only complaint with my weathertechs is that they faded a little from the truck living completely outside and i wish i had taken the stickers off....because they fall apart after several years and are WRETCHED to try to remove :( I believe the AVS ones have the logo engraved +1 for them :)

    Tico's truck is always so damn hawt....everyone loves the MGM!!

    No problem man!

    At the rate my vent visors have faded, i'm considering buying a FRONT set of those AVS in channels....they are $49.XX (plus shipping probably) from autoanything... where as the replacement weathertechs from the weathertech site are $59.XX (plus shipping)...

    I'll help you clean your engine bay if we ever go to a meet... Nice thing about mud is, i use it to coat my frame before winter so the salt doesn't eat away as much metal :thumbsup:
