Item #1:

2x Magnaflow 99006 High-Flow Catalytic Converters, direct 2.5" in/out replacements: ORDERED



$134.42 for both, with FREE shipping.

Out of this whole build, this is what I'm most excited about. Hopefully I'll get my mileage back, plus a little better exhaust tone.

Item #2-all




+ $120 for shipping. not a bad deal. as you can see thats just about everything. air dams, little plastic pieces, the bits. but for $50 for the top pad, $30 for the grille and $60 for a bumper im going to go to the JY tomorrow and see if I cant get one and save some more money.

And here are the headlights I'm looking at. Throw in some Sylvania Silverstars and either some switchback LEDs or Sylvania chrome bulb and I'm good to go

cracked where the two bolts hold it in and the headlight retaining screws were smashed into it.

I had Jimmy John's today for the first time. I wasn't all that impressed with the sub, but the cookie was good.

At least you're getting to know all the parts on your truck, again!

Got the #5 Vito. Since the truck is getting her plugs changed I had to order delivery. They were freaky fast, I submitted my order online and had the sub in my hands 11 minutes later.
