Sitting at LAPD (Not the cops fellas, thank god) waiting to get tuned on monday. Figure they will be done with it tuesday...crossing fingers.
Then brian will take it back and clean up the spider web that I call the engine bay.
You should of seen the faces of the shop guys when I pulled in, ****** is soo loud and the idle is so sick. They were dyno'ing a twin turbo C5 when I pulled up and Doug (the tuner) stopped the pull on the vette cuz he heard my truck over the vette's screaming engine and thought the vette had thrown a piston.
Almost there man, little things now.

Off topic, what are your plans for the rear bumper? It kinda looks out of place being the only chrome on the truck. I'm sure you've got something in mind.
Damn bro, you don't miss a thing!! That is the last eye sore to be fixed on my truck.
I had originally planned on getting a cap and color matching the rest of the bumper. Then a few people had me going with the idea of getting a Sir Micheal's roll pan. Problem is I tow with my truck and I don't want to get the hidden hitch and flip up license, etc... that goes along with the roll pan and I live in LA where nobody can drive worth a ****. But if a roll pan looks better then, I'll do the roll pan.

Yeah you were definetly a bit of motivation for my rims. I went with a flat black though since my truck isn't straight black. I thought color matching woulda been a little much as well.
