Huh? The cabin air filter mod is under 50 bucks. If you spend more than $100 for this then you are doing something wrong.

Maybe I misposted but I was posting that on someone that had listed a ton of mods, 4' lift kit, tires, rims etc.

I like the way you put the plate behind :happy107::happy107:

I'm going to mod mine this weekend.


big_red06, thanks for sharing the pics...
I think this is a great mod too and I would have bought one already but it says it does not fit the rambox

I like the reverse lights in your bumper where did you get those and how do you cut a square hole?

Google flush mount led pod. I've got some KC one in mine but there are a bunch of different brands. Just use a grinder with a cutting wheel.

there was a thread from another member that did the same thing. He really taped up the bumper good to avoid scratches....measured and remeasured, and then probably measured again lol. Pretty sure he drilled starter holes and then cut the rest out with a sawzall with a metal blade.

What's that sposed to do anyways, other than the obvious of making the motor run cooler but, I've heard of alot of people doing this. Does it really help performance wise? How about in conjunction with a Diablo Sport Tuner?

I really like that armrest cover other guys have bought. I put mine on a few days ago and love it! Also got my HIDs installed on my '17 sport and love those too! Bought a 8" black antenna off Amazon for 15$ and also love that! Reception stayed about the same and looks way better!!

I just took over as Parts Manager at a dealership within an Auto Group and we have our sister Dodge dealer next door. Lemme tell you, there's lots under $100 when you get cost + 10! The wife might not find this new venture as amusing as I do!

The only benefit I see in a 180-degree thermostat is if your drag racing all the time and you want a cooler engine between runs. Otherwise the engineers raise the temperature to about 205 degrees for fuel efficiency. As soon as you change the operating temperature the computer is going to compensate.
