I had actually been pretty good recently.
Just the pushrods and the wheels over the last couple of weeks.

Re: Not ready for install yet...

The only thing I can see wrong with the ones in the picture is they are wearing sh*tyear tires..... And I still think the raptor hood looks better than the stock hood, looks more aggressive.

i like the stock hood better than the raptor. the stock one is beefier and looks more muscley if you will.

Re: Not ready for install yet...

Went to take them to the guy recommended to me today.
Dude basicly said he didn't want to do it. And quoted me $500 for all four wheels.
No way. Gonna try a couple places early next week.
I would like to have them back by Friday/Sat...but we shall see.

Sounds like he was pretty serious about not doing them. They shouldn't be all that hard to coat, at least they are new and clean.
