    Rattle can from work haha! Some kind of plastic paint, and I'll make sure to sand them before painting, unlike the previous owner. The flares are actually red underneath the black paint. And they're plastic

    Yeah that would go nice with your truck.
    Rattle can ftw! I wonder if the flares themselves would look cool red or black better?

    I like the black better, I've seen tacos with the red. I saw one with the red flares and color matched bumpers, and I didn't like that either. Plus since my paint is faded the color of the flares doesn't even match the paint haha

    If the color won't match for sure paint them black I was just throwing out suggestions. I wouldn't color match our year bumpers

    Are neon lights legal down there? There are here but they have to be off unless you're parked.

    It looks like it does. I put in the x-code, and it's reading something, and according to scangauge if it's reading something, then it's the right code. It's the one labeled TRA

    I ran it up the steering column, and out the gap at the bottom(I have a tilt steering wheel) then up the side. I moved the plug to the back after this pic. It has 2 plugs for more mounting positions

    Bad news guys. The vibes are not as bad, but they are still there. Didn't feel it till I got on the highway tonight

    That's pretty clean I imagine. Always nice to know if I ever get one. Can you clear codes with this?
    Mmm I wonder what it could be other than maybe that bearing? This might sound dumb but its not unbalanced tires (though I'm sure you would notice that just making sure)
