fitment isnt great, with my hit and run last year the rear quarter panel was all jacked up and prevented good fitment. here are some pics. do you guys like it???? and the light bar works and clears the tailgate when opening by about 1/16 of an inch!!! lol

what did you use to refinish your rims, and did you have to sand them down first? Mine are scratch to hell from getting stuck in a ditch the first time I drove in snow a couple years ago.

thanks guys. the weight reduction is pretty crazy, i did a few launches today, it roasts them in first really quickly then shifts to 2nd then bogs down then back to first. never done that before. lol. still gotta mess around for fitment which bugs me.
