And I did this last week, but I installed clear bumper lights and blacked out the corners with VHT niteshades.
Good idea!! Looks good and I love the VHT nightshades. That's what I use also.

Started the break in procedure on my new motor. Had to get a new fpr because the old one was squirting gas everywhere. Chased down a couple leaks which were just hose clamps not tightened enough. But at the end of the day she purred nicely and had good oil pressure

Ported my borla heathers and modified them for 88 stroked 4.7 engine with 98 PCM and 2000 intake manifold. Also made a fully custom 2.25 exhaust to go around 6 speed tranny with no restrictions. After first tank and no wimpy driving, Gas mileage went from 15 to 22 mpg and awesome performance to boot. Unbelievable torque on the trail. Now I need to get a new o2 sensor (broke it when re installing) and see if I can get even more mpg and power
