Took it for a bath. Then took it back to AK LEDs for photos.

Finally got a chance to get the new wheels on. Moto Metal 961's I picked up, and I really like Em so far!

I think it was too cold when I went through (Monster Wash on Dimond). Didn't get it as clean as I would have liked. I should have waited until this afternoon.

They do. I've been happy. Great customer service, and they're quick. Great to work with!

Can you PM me on how you installed that license plate bracket. Need to do the same on my truck to install a bar in the middle. Thank you

I wish I could, but I have no way to do it. I'll throw up a couple crappy photos.
At warm idle though, it's not much louder, but deeper than stock. As soon as you get it some gas, you can hear it the cab, not real loud, but good. ZERO drone unlike the setup I had. Get on it, and the smile starts.
Mine is the "S" type system. Borla changed that system to use the ATAK muffler with a resonator. That's cool, if later I want a little more sound, I can remove the resonator, and put in the ATAK mid pipe. I plan on experimenting like that, when it warms up outside again!!
The only thing I don't care for is that you can see the left pipe extension from the rear of the truck, but I do have a 3" lift block, and that likely makes it more apparent. I'm going to use some HiTemp black on it, maybe make it less visible.
I had the guy that helped me put it on, drive it before I even got in it. I think I'm going to like it. I do hope it gets a little more rumble. I've got a 400 mile ride this Christmas, so maybe it'll heat up enough and get a bit more.
