I always run 20% on all of my vehicles. It's ilegal but not too dark. Never had a problem so far. Knock on wood....

No one made it out. Yea - it was cold outside and very windy but inside the garage wasn't too bad. As long as I stayed moving I was fine. Plenty bundled up too.

JD I am thinking you should definitely post a pic of the raked truck in the bulldog/cali look forum. Think how jealous that would make all them boys in there

Truck looks good lifted can't wait to see it with the new tires and wheels Thanks for stimulating the economy

Thanks! That is a good idea but I can't find that thread anymore...did they delete it?? Isn't the 'bulldog' look with the front up and the rear down?? Maybe I am confused...

You are probably right JD. I think the bulldog has the front higher and the cali is the rear higher? Ya it got deleted but they have a new one started I can't remember the name though.

I don't know what your talking about that piston looks great

I've always used 20% tint on my vehicles. I haven't been pulled over for them yet. It's dark enough at night that you can only see a shadow of a person.

The board has been quiet today. Where is everyone? lol

Well tonight I will be putting primer on the speaker pods and hopefully ordering paint so get them sprayed and ready for the install.

Can you let me know what that website was that mixes the paint into the spray cans? I would like to look into that myself. Seems like that would come in pretty handy for jobs like yours. Pending on prices I would like to do some interior pieces myself eventually.

The Two Woodpeckers

Two Woodpeckers..........

A Mexican woodpecker and a Canadian woodpecker were in
Mexico arguing about which place had the toughest trees. The Mexican woodpecker claimed Mexico had a tree that no woodpecker could peck.

The Canadian woodpecker accepted his challenge and promptly
pecked a hole in the tree with no problem. The Mexican woodpecker was
amazed.

The Canadian woodpecker then challenged the Mexican
woodpecker to peck a tree in Canada that was absolutely 'impeckable' (a
term frequently used by woodpeckers ). The Mexican woodpecker expressed confidence that he could do it and accepted the challenge.

The two flew to Canada where the Mexican woodpecker
successfully pecked the so-called 'impeckable' tree almost without breaking
a sweat.

Both woodpeckers were now terribly confused. How is it that
the Canadian woodpecker was able to peck the Mexican tree, and the
Mexican woodpecker was able to peck the Canadian tree, yet neither was able to peck the tree in their own country?

After much woodpecker pondering, they both came to the same
conclusion:
Apparently, your pecker gets harder when you're away
from home.
