    So I got an $100 bonus from work for Christmas, and it is begging me to spend it. Should I save it towards my planned upgrades or can you guys think of anything worthwhile to get for about that cost?

    Thanks!

    That's what I was leaning to...

    Yep, already got it.

    Thinking about doing something like this to try and deter thieves, but just haven't gotten around to it.

    Thoughts on taking the Plasti-Derp off the center caps? I can never make up my mind on how I like these wheels.

    Plasti-Derp?

    Either way the wheels look good, but my vote is for with the plastidip.

    Lugs and bead look cool matching like that.

    I think I will take the caps off tonight and bring them in the house so the Plasti-Derp will warm up and come off more easily.

    I'll throw them back on tomorrow after I put on my DMB Fire Dancer sticker! I can always Plasti-Derp them again.

    Gonna put it above my TW sticker in the center rear window. I don't like stickers much these days, but it's only about 3'' x 2'', and its a Dave Matthews sticker, so it's cool. :D

    Got the Plasti-Derp off the center caps, going out now to brave the cold to throw them back on, I'll get pictures sometime tomorrow and update the OP.

    Went out and had some fun in the snow after filling up my bed with driveway snow and filling up on gas. Funny enough, the KM2's do not do well in minimal snow, (i.e. driving out of my neighborhood) but did excellently in the 5+ inches I drove in later. I went up a small hill (35* incline maybe with 6+ inches) and my truck went up in 4WD with very minimal slippage.

    The picture looking out over the field has both my high beams and Blitzpro lightbar on if anyone is interested in the light output of my lightbar.

    I think the low frontal shot with all my lights on actually turned out pretty good for an iPhone picture.

    Thanks Mike! I can never make up my mind whether I like them all Plasti-Derped, or just the center caps, or just the faux ring, but right now I'm digging the stock look as well.
