Hey thanks guys, she shines up pretty good, Meguiars is good stuff. I used Mothers Clay bar, then meguiars 3 step kit ending with deep crystal carnauba wax.
I've thought about removing the blinkers and going clear. Any links on how to do it?
Kr1s I was going to go 10 on the sides, but I was told there is no 10. It goes from 5 to 15. Could just be the brand they used. That said, I'm pretty set on 15 being good, I still drive this truck at night so I need a little light coming in lol.
Tim, Black00 called it. I'm from Wilmington Ohio (30 minutes north of cincinnati) but I been stationed in the Air Force in Charleston, SC for 8 years. Love it.
As for the Blanket I've had it on and off, lately I swap turbo's to often leave the damn thing on there.
TimDave I'm not sure on mirrors man, lol never really noticed I guess.
Beatdown I run a 2bar, but keep the maf in there just to get readings from the intake temp sensor. I run a dry 50 and a couple hits on a 75. I usually just set the truck to run around 11.0 a/f's if the nitrous wasn't spraying, then when the 50 dry hits it takes me into the 11.4-11.5 area. Still rich, but I'm a fan of extra fuel volume cooling on those stock workhorse pistons.
Ow and little update. Just had to talk a little smack I guess. Steve sent me the tracking number for my front wheels tonight. Looks like the 8th. I ordered my rears 2 days later, so maybe I'll get a tracking on them soon as well.

^^^hahaha lol, what do you do to pass inspection with such dark tint? I know that if we go below i think 35%, you will fail inspection and a lot of cops will pull you over if it looks very dark, test it and make you scrape it off...
