Here's where it's at so far with the tan bedliner. Still thinking bout carrying it up to the bodyline, just not 100% sure yet.

Before

After

And found these on Scamazon, gonna try em on the 99 bumper/body, see how they look.

I know. I was so nice to her and she was running smooth as butter. Then, randomly the other day it started knocking. Not very loud, but definitely some piston slap. Sometimes it not very loud but then sometimes is get louder and than other times you can't hear it at all.
