    Soooooo, i have good news and not so good news.

    First, thanks to everyone's efforts i have been selected as a finalist!!! That's awesome!

    Now, the not so awesome part. I can't bring Kyle in the truck. They say for safety it can be me plus one but both of us have to be over 18. But i am working with my wife to have her and him in the stands so he can still see it and experience it.

    Na, I am a "keep an eye on it" guy. Its just a range toy so if it loosens up I just tighten it up, not like my life is relying on it. And I like to tweak and change things often so being able to just take it off when needed without dealing with loctite or a stake is nice.

    My only issue with mounting the heavy 4" hids behind the grille. The vibration likes to break the support brace in front of the condensor.

    Upon inspection, if i didn't have the lights, i wouldn't even need that brace since i no longer have a factory bumper. It is only there for the bumper.

    I have a few mods
    speaking of stickers, I put my FL taco sticker on yesterday, whenever I get my TW.com sticker Im going to put that one on the bottom left window and take the got mud sticker off so everything can be even...plus, Im starting to not really like that sticker anymore

    [​IMG]


    oh and I finally remembered where I got the idea to derp those lower pieces below the headlights, it was from theTupper, the signature creator dude, he also has a 2in strip on the front of his hood derpd black which I seriously love the way it looks (theTupper's picture below from his build thread)
