I got something similar through Amazon for less. I saw the ones on eBay but felt more comfortable with Amazon in case I wanted to return them. I have had them on my truck for about a month and half and they are excellent.

I did about a year ago and ended up throwing them in the trash. I only got the headlight pieces and had them on for a few months but the more I looked at them more they looked hokie. Just my opinion.

Had a Borla XR1 muffler installed, clamped open the flapper, left the resonator intact. Sounds great.

Washed the bugs off it today, and took some measurements. It's 37" at the front and 39.25" in the back, so I'll have a 1" rake after pulling the rear blocks. Also booked the truck in to tint the front windows. And still searching for some OEM 22's.

Which mud flaps/splash guards do you have installed?

Can't find the post, but someone wanted pictures of the ProClip holder without the phone inserted. Hopefully they look ok, my camera on my iPhone is one that is plagued with the shaky camera syndrome.

See my vehicle build post. I changed out the red grille that comes with the Rally editions for a gloss black grille. I first planned to change out the lights as well but the ratings for the reasonably priced ones on Amazon were very poor. I was also concerned that the black "glossiness" would match. I took a chance on the Razor trim cover and it matches the grille perfectly.

BG INDUCTION cleaning on FUEL and Air from Throttle plate to Piston Tops! Chucked All 8 plugs.....watch out for #8 it's not a show stopper but does require 2-3 drinks to get in the mood........BG'd the ENGINE for 20minutes and replaced all filters.......and washed!

 

If anybody cares the plugs in my opinion looked decent and can go 60K...Just remember they are GDI engines so I would advise not going much longer. As it will only speed up the valve and piston top coking etc. These engines require a little more maintenance is all I am saying and staying on top of GDI's are something you will eventually learn either the easy way or hard way. It's more than just oil and changing by the way with GDI. These engines are pretty stout! I like em so far and working on have been pretty much straight forward...........

 

I mean it's all been straight forward after I removed the God Awful plastic Intake Box contraption that is 3ft by 2ft? Really, stick it on a tree and Shoot that ****ing thing...................

    • Oil pump noise was discussed before.  I will try to remember to record a remote start later this morning. 
    • There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
