I am getting 20's because I think they look good. Probably because I have the mega cab they look normal, on a quad I would probably go with 18's

Your truck is lookinggood.If you really want it looking "slick" take off that black door molding. Took it off of my 05 RAM and have yet to do it on my new 07. Really makes a difference.

That's a big key when I do something to my truck, it has to look like it fits. If it's too big, small, otherwise, it doesn't complement.

Jesus.............that sounded like a friggin Martha Stewart comment! [:'(]

I got it from Black Cloud Diesel.

It's not the stock exhaust, but the tip is a clamp on so it will fit on your stock pipe as long as you cut it back so that it's about 4" inside the rear qtr panel.

The goof off or goo gone doesn't hurt the paint?

Not a bit.

There are 2 different kinds. One has acetone (will peel paint) and one that is a citrus base (will not hurt paint).

Obviously, use the citrus one.

Really through, the heat gun was the key. The good gone just made cleaning up the sticky stuff easier. But, then I started using wax and that actually seemed to work better.

So I tried the fishing line but mine kept breaking. Guess my test was too light. I'm gonna need to buy some more heavy duty stuff. I'm gonna try to get that done this weekend.
