yeah the truck is going to get some nice upgrades in the next couple weeks, new rims, ugly door moldings gone, niteshade my tail lights (they are not as dark as I wanted them to be) some more KCs (I love more lights) and maybe if I get enough money after I sell the stock wheels, I'll get an exhaust. and if I get lucky I'll find a deal on another pair of KCs

3M eraser ball for a drill. Buy two of em. Work like magic. Used one to take all my tape off from the moldings. After you use the eraser, take a dry cloth and wipe it down. Then hit the spots you missed. Then take really fine rubbing compound to help the paint blend a little better. Finally, wash and wax the spots you erased. Easy peesy lemon squeezy.

Just wondering, how exactly did you make those flag holders! That is NEAT and would like to do something like that!
