Not for sure what the hell you are talking about, but like 02gmcwaldoch said is right. Well he could remove it but a lot of body work would be required to patch holes, and paint the roof.

The truck looks good, not fond of visor though. Was the person you raced stock or lifted? If you are running 35" tires with 3.73 gears you might want to think about installing a set of 4.56 gears, with the 3.73 you are loosing a lot of power. I got 33" tires on my truck and I notice a difference between my 33 and the stock tires, my truck is on the sluggish side with the 33's.

not to mention that it takes a toll on the rear end if you have those 3.73's on 35's in there. my roomate blew his up that way and then went to 4.56's made the world of diff. but you do have alot of flare on your truck! what is the min.? 13 pieces? but to each's own.

the only reason I dont have lower gears is because I do a lot of highway driving and like to keep the rpm's low...and for your smart a$$ comment about the 13 piece minimum thing...I like to keep my stuff looking nice and thats the only reason I have flares...especially when the truck retailed for $47,000 new!! And yes if it were my choice, I would have went without the visor!! Those pics are also with the 33's on... I dont have any pictures of it with the 35's on it.
