Thanks man! I'm not sure what color would go good with your truck. I have a whole color scheme silver, black, red, offset with the blue kings. Red calipers right? maybe go with red, or blue to match your interior leds? Im not really one for the spikes.

I really want to get the fake bolts on my fuel octanes done, but im not sure how to get the stupid bolts out. Looks like a challenge.

I put the compressor there for a few reasons. To keep it out of water/mud. It said to keep it upright to keep it the coolest, i figured that would be a good spot for both.

Yeah my calipers are red but im over that. The red lettering has faded on my grabbers as well so I'm going to turn those around at the next rotation. I honestly think I might either color match them or just make them black. Blue would be cool though...I'm undecided. Lol

Oh okay. Yeah I guess mine gets a little dirty where it is at but I checked the filter on it today while putting in my new winch and it's as clean as the day I bought it luckily.

managed to get some new fake studs for the grill. Hopefully they don't loose these too.

Also finally made an appointment to get my gears done!:)

Well..dropping my truck off tomorrow..will cost about 1500 for the gear swap. Guess thats whatever since i spent 2 grand on the parts and they have been sitting around for months.

Side note...i contacted fuel to see if there was a way to get the fake bolts out of the wheels to ceramic coat them red like my other bolts. The idiot told me the actually screw out..keep in mind these are plastic chrome coated....well i said **** it and tried. Broke the head right off, so now ill just have to see if i can get a full set of replacements from a fuel dealer and just drill them all out.

Yep! She stays in the garage most of the time and only comes out on nice days. I drive my Jeep full time. Basically, I'm lazy with OCD and don't like washing her all the time so all I have to do is keep her dusted and detailed and the occasional wash.

had a uh-oh moment today. I wanted to adjust my reservoir tubes since they started rubbing on the zone arms since they are so bulky. Asked ben at filthyms about it and he said to just turn them by hand and they should move 10-15 degrees. I said ***** it, got a little more then i bargained for!

I had to look it up too. Are you going to go with black linex on your truck or a different color?

ill be doing silver linex on the remaining parts of my truck...reason being, i dont feel like having the outside black and every piece that they cant get silver. So i might as well keep my current color scheme

See that was my dilemma as well and I still haven't fully decided. I really want navy blue but my current color will be much simpler. Lol
