I actually have it like that and it's not working. I have [img] in front of the tag and [/img] at the end of it. No where does it say "url".

EDIT:

They had to be captalized for some reason. Thanks.

This is the only one I took and he's gone now and you can't see it at all.

BTW, I think your truck in your sig looks sick.

PS: I know, the truck is filthy. It's pollen season and we've been under water restrictions for the past couple months that prohibit washing of vehicles. That finally was lifted this week, but you can still only wash on weekends. Guess what I'm doing tomorrow?!

That is a great mod to add, I will surely keep that in mind when mine starts to fade.

Looks nice

If you want another project, you could paint the wiper arms.

Removal wasn't too bad. It's just two plastic pull tab thingys and a screw. It's kind of a PITA to get the wiper fluid lines hooked up back, but if you took off the hood it'd be alot easier.

Thanks! I'm thinking about that actually Taking the wipers off is a snap, and I've got extra paint...

I didn't sand it, but I scrubbed it down with a stiff brush. I did indeed use the Fusion paint. As an experiment I also put a coat of clear on one side.

How do you take off the wiper arms? Just loosen the little screws?

Even easier.... There's just a little tab you push out then the wiper lifts right off. I'll get a picture tomorrow for ya.
