I wanted to brag a little.
Most of my mods, still a few I need to get on here.

Looks sick man!

Edit: you need to update your signature!

good job man on the xb2.... love the speaker in the c-pillars was that hard and how is the sound now ...........very interested.

Chrevis · Aug 16, 2010

They're not easy, but they're not difficult. You just have to be patient, because it takes a long time. They sound good, I just wired it into my rear door speakers, so they're not super loud. I would need to invest in another amp for that. the most difficult part is getting the right size wood/plastic for the speakers to mount onto.

So how you like the wheels?

Chrevis · Aug 17, 2010

I love them. they're a rougher than my old wheels, but I kind of like the way they feel.

xbomb · Aug 18, 2010

Yeah anytime you go with smaller rubber you're going to get a rougher ride. You'll get uwsed to it after a little while.

Where did you get the headlight tint

Roller_Toaster · Oct 13, 2010

^^ Im almost positive he took them apart and painted them. :yes:

Chrevis · Oct 14, 2010

I tinted the outside, using VHT Nightshades from O'Reily autoparts. I later painted the chrome black to make it even darker.

clansy · Oct 17, 2010

looks awesome mate and the wheels are really good too

Chrevis · Dec 10, 2010

The chrome on the wheels never grew on me, so I picked up some Plasti-dip at Lowes and went to work. I like the finished product a lot better. Sorry about the crappy iPhone picture.

Parkers09xB · Dec 13, 2010

So it was a good project? My friend and I have thought about doing his F-150 wheels like that.

Chrevis · Dec 13, 2010

well, the chrome was a plastic insert that was held in by screws, so i took out all the inserts and painted them. it's holding up fine, and was really easy, so i guess it would work on your friend's wheels.

Parkers09xB · Dec 13, 2010

Alright thanks man. Looks good btw.

Chrevis · Dec 14, 2010

Yeah, and thanks. I do have a question to anyone that has a TRD CAI, one of my clips on the bottom of the filter thing fell off, know where I could get a replacement?

Chrevis · Jan 30, 2011

New Strup headers, and Strup exhaust.

evilcalvin · Mar 20, 2011

Love the underhood except the power connection for the amp. If you decide to compete in a sound show, you would be disqualified for fusing the power wire more than 15 inches in length from the battery. I always do a circuit breaker at less than 10 inches. other than that, just extremely jealous over the headers.

Parkers09xB · Jan 31, 2011

That's awesome. How does it all sound together?

You plan on lowering it ever?

Chrevis · Jan 31, 2011

It sounds good. I didn't like the sound of the headers at first. It reminded me of the sound of a diesel volkswagon car. But I really like it now with the exhaust.
The Weapon-R S-pipe should be here in about a week, and i'm hoping that should make it sound even better. I ordered it all at the same time, but they sent me the S-pipe that went with their header and not with the stock header, so it wouldn't fit.

I don't, the roads aren't very flat here, so I'll probably keep it stock height.

Parkers09xB · Feb 1, 2011

Nice man that's cool.

I'm more than likely staying stock height too. Haven't studied to roads in Oklahoma that closely yet, but around here I wouldn't want to lower it.

Chrevis · Feb 1, 2011

plus, if I lower it, I don't think it will clear my Rhino Ramps to change the oil.

xbinrochester · Feb 11, 2011

I installed Tanabe NF's and it clears my Rhino Ramps. Plus I get a lowered look, but not low enough that I have problems with all the potholes in NY!

Parkers09xB · Feb 1, 2011

Ah good point.
