    Still have to trim some of the wheel well as well as flatten the pinch weld. Hopefully get to that this weekend!

    Also ordered an add-w1 oil catch can to keep my engine running cleaner for longer

    Ordered my arb compressor and inflation kit. Got a great deal on Amazon. 230 for everything since the box has a small imperfection but the compressor is good. Plus have free returns.

    May be a little more difficult. I think I got realllllllly lucky. If you're able to wait a bit I'd say wait for Black Friday deals. Usually sites run those and it's a lot easier to find cheaper prices

    Been pretty busy with work but here's an update:

    Got into a tiny accident with another 3 cars. Luckily I only had some plastidip missing off my bumper. Lifted truck for the win

    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1439906423.596763.jpg

    Was able to hook up my grill led bar but still have to hook it up to the switch inside

    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1439906465.638227.jpg

    Was able to get a set of retrofits for 270 shipped to the house. Just need a little fix and some shining up

    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1439906026.127757.jpg

    There's a small crack on one of the mounts I can fix with a plastic welder and then a small scuff

    Started to work a little on my grill. Hope to do more this week and weekend

    Went off reading this past Sunday at bad lands and slept overnight which was fun

    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1439906271.030457.jpg
    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1439906316.036079.jpg

    More to come on LED bars, compressor and other switches hooked up as well as my grill I'm building

    Started work on my satoshi grill today and fixed up the headlight

    Put pieces of aluminum to make the shape that I wanted. Letting it set in the garage and then going to put more epoxy on it. Then I have to test for it to make sure the angles are good and candor without hitting anything

    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1440356690.169864.jpg

    Put epoxy on the headlight crack. Tried to plastic weld but it was hard to get the welder in there

    Forgot to post this. When we went to badlands got a little too close to a tree. Luckily no major dents. Just some paint scratched off my sliders that I have to respray and then a small scratch on the side I've been buffing out. Almost out.

    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1440362191.562866.jpg

    Also finished wiring my led bars today. Just have to have my sister in laws brother professionally hook them up but they work and just have to shorten up the wires and hopefully change a few wires to make them smaller

    Was finally able to get some work done to the headlights. One of the driver side wires came out from the halo and it stopped working. Have to pull it apart and fix. thought it would take a few min. One of the screws was stripped...........Still not complaining for the 270 i paid for them.

    Decided to take of my side emblems because I think it looks better.

    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1443797438.796087.jpg

    Tested my led bars at night. These are avec bars that TW members get a discount on

    This is with my headlights, fogs, 20" and 40" don't have a 30" in the lower grill insert because I'm saving up for my Pelfreybuilt bumpers and then I will put led fog pods and a 20" single row in that one

    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1443797484.998874.jpg

    Basically blinding from the front

    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1443797584.795787.jpg

    Decided to give myself an early birthday gift. Tinted windows. 5% in back 20% up front

    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1443797641.771907.jpg

    Got my Pelfreybuilt logos put on. Waiting for American flags for by the mirrors. Hope they come today or tomorrow

    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1443797684.309819.jpg

    Got my Rebel plate cover in the mail which was a nice addition to some stickers from Matt when he was working there

    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1443797770.088341.jpg

    Waiting for my gridx organizer from Amazon.com and then buying geekhouse23 relentless fab bed bars and his Plano case for my rack. Waiting for some covers for the bars to protect them and now saving up for a rtt and bumpers from Pelfreybuilt. Need to wash her this weekend or during the week hopefully. We shall see

    Bought relentless bed bars as well as another Plano case. Plan to fill it with some spare parts and other things. Haven't decided.

    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1443910754.885027.jpg

    Ended up putting my American flags stickers on today after washing her a bit.

    Also installed my grid it organizer. Have to trim to make the top close properly.

    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1443910831.409670.jpg

    Also decided to put in this shift knob. My dad had a 70s GTO and we never got to fix it up and had to sell it when he passed away but I saved this. Just need an adapter to help it fit properly
