That colour is awesome! Also, I would recommend deadener. I've got my doors and back wall deadened and the difference is huge! I have yet to do my roof, but it definitely needs to be done.

Default One more thing

Okay,
So after HOURS & HOURS or searching here on the forum and google I have seen enough posts/pictures for me to pull the trigger. Once my weather lets up a bit I will be removing the rear blocks to 'level' the truck. I'm going in a different direction with this one that I did with my 08. This one will only probably see gravel roads as far as her 'off roading' will go so I want to go for a nice clean setup.

Okay so now after a bit of research I'm adding a cai on my list. Any brand suggestions? I'm thinking if Roush.

Peeled off the STX stickers. Didn't snap any pics though.

Sub'd. You've really got me wishing I'd bought that Sunset Sport in Rhode Island! I think we bought our trucks about a week apart...so I'm intersted to see your progress. One thing I'd recommend NOT doing, is undercoating. I'm a firm believer that a semi gloss rattle can on the frame, once a year, is way cleaner. It keeps your nuts and bolts from getting a build up of crap in the threads as well.

Thanks!
I never thought of that actually. It's good point I will look into it. I'm happy as long as I have some protection from rust, seeing as I live right on the ocean.
