Talking Some Recent Updates I thought I'd share!

Updates on Page 22!


So I've been up to a few things lately (Which is odd),
As well planning a few things (which is the normal part)...

So here's my recent list:

Parts Installed:
-Nokia H13 Headlight Bulbs



Headlight Output Before



Headlight Output After Installation



Shelby GT500 Key Covers
(Yeah, I'm a dork... whatever, I think that they're cool)





...and because I know that they are crappy pics (my camera is kinda far-slighted, haha) here's a better picture:



I just got my "Envelope of Awesome" in the mail!



Opening...



Awesome Sauce!

It's been too rainy lately to install the overlays yet, but i'm excited!

Oh also, I just ordered a bed cover today.
I did end up getting the Extang Tri-Fecta Bed Cover
Here's a generic picture of it; I'll post more once it gets here!



Well, I think that that's about it for now; I'll post more later!

..oh, sorry the pics are so big; i was just excited to post them!

Return the bulbs and save up for an HID kit before they burn out or melt your harness


Other then that nice work!

I like the GT500 key covers, very cool

the bulbs aren't hid bulbs, they are halogen bulbs with a higher output.
i think that they run 40ish, i'm not sure, i got them at work for less than that.i do want to get HID's eventually, but i see no point in putting them in these headlights. i'll wait once i get my hella headlights (which i should be ordering later today). Thanks for the complements on the key covers, i thought it would be a little different. Oh, the bed cover was waiting for me at work today (of course it shows up on the day i ride my bike... d'oh!), so i'll get some pics of it tomorrow once it's on the truck.

BTW, when i order the headlights, i was thinking about ordering some of these...

Thanks... and yeah; you sound like my boss...
Well those wheels didn't come with the truck, the OEM ones were the painted grey (which are for sale BTW). Anyway I bought the chrome ones off of Craigslist. The first drive with these wheels on, one of the caps flew off, and cause I thought 3 looked tacky I took the rest off. So I'm looking for one if anyone has one, or er, four.
Good eye BTW!

It is, isn't it? I'm in college right now, so during the school year money is so tight that I really afford to do anything, so I figured I get some stuff while I could afford it!

Dont order those. I ran those on my mustang and its just overpriced fake stick on carbon fiber that they use on the wiper blades. It will peel off in a couple months. Just get some regular ones and save your money.

Edit: Just read the rest of the thread and realized you already ordered them, hopefully they hold up longer than mine did.
