Northern Virginia Roll Call

Same ones I got!

 

Oh and whenever he gets around to it, @boogie3478 will be derping the emblems on my truck and maybe the chrome on the grill.

 

NOOOOOOOO! Just black to cover up/prevent that nasty rusty finish they seem to acquire. Black for front calipers too.

 

Yeah we need to set up a day for that. Someone else was interested as well but I can't remember who.

 

sounds awesome! I'll probably end up doing some of these as well... so let me know when you go to do them, I'll swing over and we can do it together...

and I will never derp another grill.... I derped mine on my 3rd gen.... took a rock chip right near the emblem and I had a TERRIBLE time covering it back up.

bedliner or nothing. haha

damn... youre going all out! that's awesome!

I anxiously await your Demello bumper as well

not bad at all! @boogie3478 what plates did you buy?

 

Honestly man, if you got some time on the weekend it doesn't take much to do especially for a grill where it can be removed and not having to worry about overspray.

 

Was that in the Vader voice?

 

Yeah, but he wants to make a video for his channel, so might as well help him out along with helping myself.

 

Oh that's right I forgot about the vid stuff. Makes sense in that regard.

 

Painting my wheels most likely! And fixing my antenna mount. Need to get a better ground.

Super easy. Two 10mm bolts to remove taillight. Use two wire taps. White w/ black strip is ground, and green w/ red line is positive. Boom. Here's a thread with some pics.

Sounds good about the mods!

Yeah I'm leaning toward bedliner. The derp I had is a bit beat up now.

I went with the same plates from Bay Area Metal Fab.

 

Mine is green, yellow, and white. There is positive, negative, and brake

 

Oh what color, what color!?

 

I have had grounding issues before as well... where are you going to ground to? near your mount?

awesome! Thanks!

 

Ah, so that includes the LED light then as well. That makes sense.

 

I'll decide when I get to Lowes and look at the colors, but most likely I'll just go with a Satin black. MAYBE a bronze or gunmetal.

Right now the mount is just held in the bedside with a few screws, so I'm going to use nuts/bults instead, and run a grounding strap down to the frame and see if that helps.

 

I've been flirting with the idea of painting my wheels as well.

 

Do ittttt.

 

going bronze?
