    Damn gorgeous country out here, don't know if I could go back to South Dakota. As far as painting behind the grill, I just kept it light over the radiator fins. I used a engine paint and the temp gauge has never went above what it always has been at.

    Shades,

    I have been working with Comatosehi on a meet and greet with a build day and possible trail day in the next month or so. You interested in getting some trucks together for a group photo shoot and play day?

    I have been expanding my line of products and have thought about adding sliders, if your interested, let me know. I might be able to work something out with you if you want the first pair.

    Don

    Placed a new TRD emblem on my grill Saturday. The bugs add to it quite well I think.

    Thanks man! Post 14 on page one shows some pictures, but it all mounts up to a 1/4" piece of aluminum in each rail. The rack and box are from Pro-Tech. The rack I bought from Auto Additions here in Salem, the toolbox was ordered from West Coast Off Road.

    All measured up for some sliders, and got my BAMF (formerly Elusive Elements) behind the grill light bar on the way. Also, just ordered up some PIAA 520 atp's... Now we play the waiting game.
