    It was pretty crazy. The broadcasters cut in couple times and in one of the shots, they showed someone measuring how deep the standing water was on the field...all you could see of a 20 lb extinguisher was the nozzle...20 plus inches deep of standing water. I knew they would suspend the match once I saw that. So I gave up hope and ram to the grocery store to restock the pantry.

    I know it is only August but I could not let the opportunity of scoring my next Halloween costume pass me by. We were at Target and found this gem. My toddler is hooked on a song on youtube called "the shark song", so when she saw this she jumped and yelled daddy shark.

    :bananadead: Meh, oh well. Apparently there were a lot of other nastier comments that got deleted, so the mods must've gotten a little defensive of anyone mentioning the faux factor.

    Yeah. I can agree with deleting comments about flaming him for a fake grille, but asking if it's fake or not is legit in my eyes. Not a big deal either way though

    It was fake & easy to spot. Poking the guy to spill the beans could have been constituted as being negative. I guess that is what the mod saw & cleaned it.

    I think so buddy. You are picking a fight you wont win. Plus this joint is called EST Lair. If you get put on ice we loose the EST part. Let it go. Both you & I know its fake.

    Go into the 3rd gen section. Plenty of BS for you to play EST mind games on without catching heat. That one thread has multiple eye balls on it already. Any slip up can lead to a vacation

    I gotta be honest. That grill looks damn nice on the truck. Honestly speak I would shave the extra $250 and sport a faux. An OEM Pro grill still does not make your OR, Sport, SR5 ect a real Pro. Fake till you own it.

    I would sure as shit do the same thing, and be proud of it! Speaking of which, I'm not opposed to running the infamous Ebay front bumper. It can take abuse and it's just so inexpensive, and I'm doing things on a budget

    The ebay bumper looks nice. From what I read the biggest gripe, other than it being manufactured in China, was fitment. It does not appear to be a direct bolt on and requires some maneuvering. In your case, you would have nothing to worry since you are handy and can make the roughest things come to life.

    Too many to list.
    Frame restoration project started at 11 and ended at 11 .. took as much rust off as I could, applied the etch and prep and rinsed it off.. paint goes on tomorrow. I'm damn tired... Also, was super nervous as to where to put the jack stands. Can't wait to get it all done tomorrow.
