I gave up on trying to convince mine I just do it now.

In these cases it is better to ask for forgiveness than permission.

I'm not married, so I get to do what I want!

True, which is usually my go to tactic.

I'm getting started on another headlight retrofit, this time using housings that have LED DRLs in them and square projector shrouds.  Will update as parts arrive!

@notlimah fine.......

Infinite Performance had two sets of 6x0.013's ready to go this weekend so I snagged a set... 305 bar pop pressure, 0.016" pintle lift.  Average build specs, but should put me at the high end of the VP's fueling capability with my current compound setup.

Facebook lol.  He made a post about it.

 

Should be a good time.  Hopefully I can get some enjoyment out of them before I break something.

 

After these show up, I'm gonna lay off the performance mods for a while (I'm really gonna try to) and focus on cosmetic modifications.  Fixing hail damage and maybe a sport bumper. Silverado bumper for the rear.  Might mess around with different seats.  Then eventually paint way down the road.  Either stay with Patriot Blue or see about a nice dark grey.  Who knows.

Nice, I’ve never heard of putting a silvaraydoh bumper on. I’ll have to google that!

Hmmmm my wife’s truck might be missing a bumper soon!
