    I installed a switch that can be set to run normal factory setup or it can be switched to ground for the "Gray wire mod". With the switch I installed LED's to tell me if it is set to the "stock" setting or to the "shorted to ground". Works like a champ.

    I did it because I didn't like the idea of it being permanent. I've hit the button a few times before and I like the idea of it set to a factory setting and switch it if need be.

    I just sanded the living crap out of the chrome until it looked like billet aluminum, wiped it clean with acetone, then put about 7-8 coats of paint on them. That was 5 months ago, and they still look like I did them yesterday.

    I used 220 and a mouse sander, it made it much easier.
